Vivier... for once I wish I was the first one so it doesn't look like everyone after the first person is simply copying his/her answer.

Vivier! He invented the stiletto. Ferregamo started with platforms and heels, but not a stiletto.

Ferregamo, I thought. At least, that's what they tell you at his museum in Florence.

The answer is Roger Vivier, who designed the first stilettos for Christian Dior.
The shoes pictured are McQueen and available through net-a-porter:

Isn't the stilletto/ semi platformed heel, inspired originally from Christian Louboutin?
