I believe the answer is:

cinderella

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'person' is the definition.
(Cinderella is an example)

'wearing completely impractical shoes was recalled in perplexed manner' is the wordplay.
'recalled in' anagrams to 'CINDERELLA'.
Though, I'm not sure how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cinderella that I've seen before include "Scullery maid" , "Panto subject" , "A fabulous heroine" , "8 [BALLET]" , "Ballet by Prokofiev" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
