Sky-high: Anne Hathaway shakes off her princess image in incredible 'fetish' shoes
It was labelled the Gwyneth effect - super-high heels sold out in shops around the world after the actress was pictured teetering around in one pair after another.
Now even squeaky-clean Anne Hathaway has succumbed, showing up at the Toronto Film Festival in a fetish-style pair of multi-strap PVC black heels.
The Devil Wears Prada star teamed her incredible shoes with a strapless puff dress.

Anne was at the festival to promote her latest movie Rachel Getting Married.
Like Anne, Gwyneth Paltrow was known for her squeaky-clean girl-next-door image, until she stepped out in pair after pair of gravity defying shoes as she promoted her movie Iron Man earlier this year.
Fashion commentators saw her love affair with the kinky footwear evidence that Gwyneth was tired of her earth-mother image and ready to reinvent herself after devoting herself to caring for her two children.
Perhaps 25-year-old Anne, who struck a defiant pose of hands-on-hips, is hoping for a similar image change after the break-up of her long-term relationship with Italian real-estate developer Raffaello Follieri.
They split in June after four years, shortly before he was arrested on fraud and money-laundering charges.
