Catherine, Princess of Wales: She is a real power womanThe mother of three not only has a tight schedule as an important member of the Royal Family; as a mother she also has all kinds of private obligations. Comfort is a top priority. However, walking around in flat sneakers all day is not an option for Kate at all the official events. That's why she always reaches for the same heels with a heel of exactly ten centimeters. A heel height that is extremely popular...
This is the reason for her choice of shoesShoe designer Rupert Sanderson explains why in an interview with the Daily Mail: "As a mother of three children, she appreciates the comfort of sneakers. But she also knows that as a person in public life she is always under scrutiny. So with these shoes, Kate transforms from a busy mother into one of the most photographed women in the world." Rupert Sanderson knows what he's talking about. The Princess of Wales has worn his designs many times in the past. They are known for their mix of comfort and elegance.

The mother of three is well aware of the importance of her posture. There are numerous photos of her from every public appearance - everything has to be perfect.
The choice of shoes also contributes to the fact that there are hardly any bad photos of Kate. While chunky platform heels or kitten heels with a short heel can sometimes make you look a little short and stocky, the pointed pumps ensure a straight and confident gait. "The height of her heels combined with her graceful manner is probably the reason why she looks so good in photos. Given Kate's height of 1.76 meters, this is another advantage - because she is rarely overlooked in group photos," explains Rupert Sanderson.
