Kelly
Osbourne has a fashion confession to make: she wore towering platform trainers
instead of heels underneath her dress to the 2014 Oscars earlier this year.
Kelly admitted that she opted to wear the trainers so she would be comfortable
on the red carpet while also boosting her height. She said that she didn't want
to be in pain wobbling around in heels for hours, and her footwear choice was
concealed by her dress so nobody knew: ''Here is a secret I bet you did
not know, I wore them underneath my gowns during the whole award season... Yes,
I even wore them to the Oscars. They saved my feet from enduring the agony of
standing in 6-inch heels for 12 hours and ending up with blood-filled shoes!''
Kelly
thanked the Spice Girls for making platform trainers a huge hit in the 90's
because now they're coming back as a fashion trend and she loves
them: ''Thank you to the Spice girls for making it such a trend in the
90's that they had to come back again!!!(Sorry I'm English I can't help
myself!) Platform sneakers have been shown all overdesigner
runways since 2013 but the trend is finally kicking off and I looooooove it!
Finally I can gain an extra inch or 2 and not be in pain while still looking
stylish! (sic)''
She
jokes that some platform trainers available aren't as pretty as others but it's
all about finding the right pair: ''I know some of them are
reminiscent of corrective orthopaedic shoes but... you just have to
find the right shape for your body!”
