Tall people wearing heels

[Proofer]

If you're 5 ft 11 plus, do you wear heels? And would you look at someone who did?

I am 5ft 11 and a bit, and I wear heels to weddings etc but never on a day to day basis. But I've seen some casual heeled boots that would be good for work etc and I'm just wondering if I would stick out too much if I wore them, as I don't want to look huge.

Any thoughts?

I have a colleague who is 6ft and wears heels every day. She looks awesome!

I'm 5"10 and regularly wear heals. Most of the people where I live are white British so I tower above them anyway. I don't see what difference it makes.

The boots are a chunky ankle boot with about a 3 inch heel, so I think I'll go for it! They aren't a stiletto heel so I think walking should be fine.

I'm 6 foot. I love wearing heals. I've MS so heal wearing is limited but I wear them on a night out.

Long legs !! What's not to love!

Heels !!!

A very close family member of mine is 6ft 2. She regularly wears 2 inch heels, and looks amazing!

I’m 5’2” and never wear heels

I'm 5'10 & I don't ever wear high heels. I just can't walk in them & find them really uncomfortable. The highest I go is about 3".

I do sometimes look at tall women in heels (and i mean really tall women, 5'10'' and + ) and I wonder if they realise that they look like they're towering over other people, it' can look like they're on stilts, or towering over everybody around them. Their prerogative entirely though but sometimes as an observer I'd think a flatter shoe would ''own'' the inherent tallness better, not parody it.

I am 5'10. I NEVER used to wear heels when I was younger, i was very self conscious. Now my partner is 6'3 so I started wearing heals years ago because I felt better that he was so talk 😂. Now I have a pair of boots with a small heal that I wear all the time. I don't tend to go over the 3 and a half inch mark though.

5ft 8 and rarely wear heels-if I do they’re only about 2 inches max.
I’m tall enough so never really seen the need for heels.
Having said that I wouldn’t really think a lot of a taller than me wearing heels-wear what you want.

Where did you get this boots they are fantastic!

6’ here and love wearing heels on a night out. Makes me on par with DH. I have nephews (6’5+) and nieces (6’+) that tower over us now we are in our 40’s. Makes us feel very old. Also have a 13 year old dd and I started to panic (a bit) when her growth started to stall at 5’10”. Hope she gains the other two inches so she can fit in😬

5'11 and I wear heels whenever I'm going for a night out/wedding etc. I find them too uncomfy to wear everyday but I wear boots with a chunky heel day to day. I love being tall!

My friend got them for me .. so I'm not sure where they are from !

A PP mentioned about tall people not realising how tall they are. It's true. I recently met someone who is 6'8" and I felt so intimidated, but I'd never associated that with how other people may view me.

My best friend is 4'11"

I'm 6ft and wear heels most days. I like the way they look. I'm tall anyway, so what's another 3 inches?!

5'9 and wear heels as much as I can, definitely on nights out. Don't care that I tower above everyone, (all my friends are 5'2 ish, just makes me stand out which I like.

I'm 6 foot,I used to wear

I think tall women in heels look amazing - I've got a couple of 6 foot plus friends, tbf they're both really stylish and fabulous dressers anyway, but I think they look just amazing on a night out with gorgeous heels on.

(I'm 5'1", and I'm the opposite, I figure I have to rock being small, so don't see the point in wearing heels.)

Buy them, wear them! I would love to be a bit taller (I'm 5 foot 2) and whenever I see a really tall woman rocking heels I feel like high-fiving her for being fabulous and totally owning her height. Who cares if anyone looks, they're only envious!

5ft10 and love wearing heels! Can't walk any distance or drive in them so it tends to be for a night out only these days

6ft and the maximum I wear is about 2cm, on a boot. I can't wear proper ladylike shoes with a pointed heel as my balance is atrocious and I'd fall over
I used to wear slightly larger block heels in my clubbing days, and learnt to duck going through door frames!

5’10” and wear heels for special occasions. That’s mainly because I don’t find them that comfy though, so I stick to flats!

If you love the boots, get them. A tall woman is a powerful woman IMO :) I would wear 6” stilettos if I could walk in them!
