If the shoe doesn’t fit . . .
. . . fix the foot. Cosmetic feet surgery is the latest must-have when you’re nipped and tucked everywhere else. So just how far will women go in the search for top-to-toe perfection? Jane Wheatley reports


It is 8 o’clock on a serene blue morning in Beverly Hills and Dr Ali Sadrieh, a podiatrist, has just performed a 45-minute operation on a client, cutting a section of bone out of her toe to shorten it. She was awake during surgery, watching a film; next week Sadrieh will do the same thing to the second toe on the other foot. There was nothing medically wrong with the toes, but his patient didn’t like the way they protruded over the lip of her high-heeled Manolo Blahniks.
