IF THE SHOE FITS...

A giant sculpture of a stiletto high-heel shoe sits atop simulated hatboxes in the atrium of the biggest luxury and fashion outlet mall in France, One Nation Paris.  

The closet French equivalent of the expression, "if the shoe fits, wear it," is "si le chapeau te fait, mets-le donc!"  This expression is not to be confused with "porter le chapeau" which means to wear the hat, an idiom for taking the blame.
