    Just had to add that Louis XVI the grandson of Louis XIV took the
    high heel and had them bejeweled with precious gemstones. The since
    he fancied himself a fine dancer, would give performances. He wanted
    all to see his bejeweled heels so he "turned out" his leg to show
    them off. This is how "turn out" in the style of dancing known as
    ballet first began.
