The integration of high heels in the "fashion arena" is due to Catherine de Medici (1519-1589).
May I suggest that all of us aficionados of high heels take time on April 13th, her birthday, to offer up a glass of our finest to say thank you to her.
I'd also like to ask Lush's distinguished owners to consider making April 13 a commemorative day on Lush.
Perhaps a story contest each April based upon sexy high heels?
