Stand tall: boosting one's chances to be seen and heard

Interview, March, 2003 by Tony Moxham

Taking a platform for things one believes others should know about should be considered a basic right for all of us (and one that should never be underestimated). Given the world's current troubles, it would serve all voices to be heard a little better right now. In a flash of fortuitous prescience, this season sees the platform heel popping up (literally) all over town. Pictured on this page is the fashion community's somewhat United Nations of platforms, including two Italian, one French, and one American house ... and all of them are getting along.
