Ladies, Strap on those Sky High Heels, the Stiletto Strut is Back!

f a woman were to have only one pair of shoes in her closet (gasp!), it should be a pair of killer stilettos. Preferably platforms, according to Senior Vice President and Fashion Director of Neiman Marcus Ken Downing. “The platform has transcended trend, because when you get three or four extra inches, who wants to give it up?”

The 6th annual Neiman Marcus’ Stiletto Strut is absolutely about rocking a pair of sky highs, but it’s also about raising awareness and money for The Family Place, an organization aspiring to end family violence since 1978. The stylish event brings hundreds of gals to the streets of downtown Dallas for a sassy walk down Main Street. The event originated in Dallas, but stilettos are now being strutted all across the country.

“It’s a terrific opportunity to create your own runway moment on the streets of the city,” said Downing in our video from last year’s event.

The 2013 Stiletto Strut will be held on April 25 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m by the flagship Neiman Marcus downtown. The evening kicks off with music, some bites, and a cocktail or two. Keep an eye out for some sexy firefighters; we caught an eyeful of them last year.

The fabulousness is not just for the ladies; and no, there will be no drag. This year, the gentlemen are invited to the Loafer Lounge at The Joule. The party will feature cocktails, food, entertainment and an amazing view of the Stiletto Strut.
