One thing that really helps to carry off wearing elevators with total discretion is to get the rest of what you wear with them exactly right. I have mentioned before how strange it is that some guys in the public eye and with plenty of cash can so easily get it wrong – wearing huge great thick boots under a suit and making all the mistakes it is possible to make.
Yes, it’s that time of year again, when we all search wildly for gifts to buy for our loved ones. The struggle is real. It may seem like everyone these days has everything they need and even everything they don’t need, so what do you get them? And that’s where elevator shoes come in.
Perhaps you’ve long been searching for shoes that make you taller but you haven’t found the right ones to match your lifestyle. Or perhaps you’ve only found these ‘tall men shoes’ in a limited number of designs, with many of them traditionally restricted to dress shoes.
Autumn is the ideal time to add polish to your wardrobe. With so many new styles emerging, stylish men the world over have their pick, but you can’t go wrong with the classics. Inject a dose of sleek style into your fall look when you combine timeless staples with bold accessories, creating the perfect storm.
Last time I told you about my brand new 6” elevators (the Hong Kong style https://www.guidomaggi.com/hong-kong.html) and my first impressions. I have had a few weeks now to really run them in. And I am so pleased with my new height.
There is no shortage of stylish men on the silver screen. With larger than life personalities, and outstanding talent to back it up, these actors have eyes watching at all times, whether on the red carpet, or in the glaring lens of the paparazzi. Gary Oldman is one such man who hasn’t let a short stature stand in his way. The English actor commands an enormous presence in front of the camera, and so has remained for decades on the scene. While a talent like Gary Oldman stands strong on his own, he is the perfect candidate for a pair of elevator shoes, which can automatically heighten stature and self-confidence.
The 2017 Emmy Awards have further proven what many of us already know to be true about style – it really is in the eyes of the beholder. Just like every other awards show, the 2017 Emmy Awards was filled with plenty of fashion hits and misses, some more severe than others. One thing can’t be denied, though: today’s hottest stars brought style to the red carpet in the form of sleek suits and beaded gowns. From newcomer Donald Glover in purple Gucci, to Milo Ventimiglia in Ralph Lauren Purple Label, the stars of the screen were on point, and there is plenty more still to come, especially when it comes to men’s elevator shoes.
Well the 6 inch elevator has landed. https://www.guidomaggi.com/us/5-inch-boots That’s a whole 15cm.
I suspect one of the big reservations about taking the plunge and buying elevators, even relatively low ones of say a couple of inches or 5cm, is that you might imagine that when you put them on some kind of dark magic is going to happen and “everyone is going to notice that I have grown”. I can tell you from 17 years experience of wearing height addition that that doesn’t happen, it really really doesn’t – it seems counter-intuitive, I know, so it remains a niggling concern. But here are the experiences and reasons.
There is so little actual advice on adding height that it’s easy to make mistakes or make it difficult for yourself. My advice over the months has always tried to give you detail of techniques and strategies. Here are some pretty basic tips with a few words explanation.
