Chis Pratt and BryceDallas Howard may be the Hollywoodheavyweights in the box office smash Jurassic World, but it was a pair of heelsthat did the real heavy lifting. The starlet donned a pair of 3.5 inch nude Sam Edelman Camdyn heels throughout the movietromping over rugged terrain and being chased by dinosaurs.
“Ifeel so capable,” Bryce told People. “Before, I would think to myself, Oh mygosh, if I have heels on and there’s a disaster, what am I going to do? Noweven if something happens, and I’m in heels, I’ll be okay.”

She had the option to wear spray-paintedplatform sneakers, but the 34-year-old said those actually hurt her more thanthe heels. “I was running through the jungle in reallydeep mud, and I wore those [wedged sneakers] and tweaked my ankle,” addedBryce. “The rest of the time, I just wore heels and they were not difficult torun in at all. The whole time, I didn’t get one blister!”
To prepare for the tedioustask, the starlet did specific exercises. "I just became completelyfixated on having the strongest ankles imaginable," she explained."I'd put my foot on [a wooden platform] and do calf raises and then stayon my tippy toe and do squats. Then I'd turn perpendicular and exercise eachside of my foot. Just to practice the stabilizing muscles."
