Greg Jenner and his guests Dr Elizabeth Semmelhack and Lauren Pattison discuss high-heeled shoes and their many uses through history.

High heels have been around since as early as the 10th century. Today we see them as a cornerstone of footwear fashion, with models strutting their stuff on the catwalk in heels of varying colours and styles. But how has this impractical, even masochistic piece of design become so gender-specific and has it always been this way? Greg Jenner discusses the history of high-heeled shoes with Dr Elizabeth Semmelhack from the Bata Shoe Museum and with returning comedian Lauren Pattison.

Cruella (2021) is an amazing adaption with some of the best costume design I have ever seen! It is always fascinating to see different interpretations of a character's style choices!

Future fashion designer

I am 11 but I really want to be a fashion designer and I listen to this all the time this will really help me thank you

Binge-podcasting!

This podcast is really amazing! Not only do the girls know what they're talking about, their guests and topics are really interesting AND they really have the best podcast voice (and let's be honest here, this can make or break a show!). Keep rocking in style ladies!!!

Never miss it!

I've listened to this podcast for some time and it's still my favourite.

Even if I think the topic doesn't sound that interesting, most of the time it ends up being fascinating.

It goes to show how the presenters have a great ability to pick out the stories that take it beyond the items themselves to explore social history, personal stories and lost skills.

The production is top notch and every episode is so well researched. April and Cassidy are also just a pleasure to listen to.
