Template:Rescue Clear heels are heels made from a transparent material. They may be used to contain novelty items such as flashing lights, liquids or even fish. Alternatively the transparency may be used deceptively with a ballerina style to give the flattering appearance of standing on tiptoe or en pointe.[1]
The style may be used to evoke Cinderella's glass slipper when worn at a formal ball such as a prom.[2] As high heels, the style may be overtly erotic and they are worn by pole dancers, striptease artistes and pornographic actresses.[3] Pole dancers like heels of four to six inches in length.[4][5]
Popular brands include Pleaser and Luscious.[4]
