I actually took a little tumble on the red carpet the other night (me and the baby are totally fine— no worries!). It wasn’t because my heels were too high, either. I’d been dancing on stage in 6 inch heels till I was 6 months pregnant, but the soles on these platforms were new and slick and it didn’t mix well with the carpet!
Tip: always add rubber bottoms to the toe area of your soles or scratch the area up with scissors or a razor blade so there’s some texture. Lesson learned for me!

Holly another trick you can do is to scratch your shoes up on cement or bitumen to get some grip.

As a fashion photographer I learned this trick when working with models in very expensive shoes: Black masking tape on the soles of the shoes will not be noticed in the photographs and will give the shoes some bite on slick surfaces.
