Avant-garde shoes

[leyla m.]

the marios heel is fab
2 different styles i got on pic (my own)
open toe and closed toe

leyla, those are so fantastic futuristic avant-garde...remarkably, they bring to mind Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. no sissy's need apply, attitude intended.

^^ Those are super cool. I would wear either pair any day of the week!

 

[suzane]

MiuMiu

I love the Marios heel and flat but the shoes in #65 are really ugly to me.

wow the gold and black pair are gorgeous! I always wonder though how much harder they are to walk in especially the shoes without heels...

Leyla Congrats on the Marios!

luckyme I'm not crazy about the blocky platform, but I love the uppers with the tail on the last two. Just the right amount of messy drama! Very fun!

I would probably never wear these Giuseppe Zanotti's, but I love how space-age they are...

how do you consider them "avant garde"?

dego, its all in the design. not as extreme as some others posted, but the braided leatherwork and the tassels make them a different take on an old bohemian look.

^ I found the tassels reminiscent of the Helmut Lang pony tail shoes ...

 

[luckyme]

ta-ta, Im not familiar with those. not real pony tails I hope, that would be sadly surreal.

 

[fashionista-ta]

^ I thought they were in this thread already, but I guess not ... as I recall they were fairly standard pumps with a little horse tail on the back. Whether it was authentic hair or not, I don't know ... I'm sure there are pix lurking somewhere here on tFS ...

 

[JetSetGo!]

I remember those. What an interesting connection. They do have some of the same spirit, don't they?

Reminds me a ton of the Marc Jacobs SS08 shoes.I would imagien wearing those would kill your toes, as your basically supporting your whole body on them without the heel.
