HEELS 12CM PRECISLEY

WITH such intricate calculations behind every outfit, Rachel leaves nothing to chance when it comes to footwear. She’s found a style she likes and she sticks to it: dozens of pairs of £495 Louboutins.

Rachel likes their highest heel, the 12cm, as these elongate her legs, push her hips and bust forward and make her look statuesque.

With her stilettos on, she’s almost 6ft tall and towers over her dancer boyfriend Pasha Kovalev, whom she met when they were partnered on Strictly in 2013. Pasha’s 5ft 8in — an inch taller than Rachel when she takes off her shoes.

A few years ago, he bought her a pair of sparkly Louboutins for Christmas. ‘For a boy to buy footwear that fits was a very nice surprise present,’ she cooed.
