I’m afraid that my big booty wasn’t made for samba. Things would get a’ jigglin’ and the fellows at the Seismic Observation Station would panic and send out a red-alert.

High heels and a national celebration of big butts. Works for me! I am putting dancing the Samba in Brazil on my to do list!

I could never walk in these shoes, let alone dance in them - but they’re really cool to look at - works of shoe art! More power to the samba ladies!

Yes - these shoes can be worn for dancing because of the strapping - you cannot slip with the heel. It is fixated in place. The shoes suggested for dinner and dancing earlier in the Manolo’s excellent blog, they cannot. It’s not the high heel, it’s the foot’s stability on top of the high heel.

Fantastic article, Manolo! I am a little embarassed to say, but I have a pair of shoes almost exactly like the black ones in the middle, and I love them! Do I samba? Nope. Maybe I should start… :)
