AS hemlines continue to rise, heels are getting higher and the focus is very much on feet this Spring.

Apart from the skyscraper heels, a great deal of attention is being paid to detail so look out for straps, tassels, crystals and bows.

Some shoes look less like footwear than feats of engineering with cleverly structured platforms and heels.

Footwear is definitely not understated this season - everything is styled to make the ultimate impact. Colours are vibrant, heels are high, platforms are deep and straps are wide.

And great attention is focused on ankles with ribbons, bows, laces and leather straps.
