I find them tacky and boring. I would prefer some of the edgy vintage pairs going on eBay for a pittance.
 
I saw them in Vogue too, I think they are gorge! I absolutely love rhinestones on heels!
 
^ Ditto, the black version is much sharper and classic looking.
 
I like the black ones better....in that pink they just look like one of those Michael Antonio knockoffs sold on chonga stores :ninja:
 
Can't believe Ghesquiere designed those! They seem more Valentino or Versace, and not in a good way. Sorry to be so negative!

definitely better in black...the pink are a little malibu barbie looking.
 
I guess Gucci did get to Balenciaga, Nicolas would never do pink willingly.
 
When I saw them in Vogue, the first thing that came to my mind was "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"...:heart:
 
I like them in the black, they look silly in the pink. Maybe they would have looked better in a paler shade of pink, but that color to me is pretty awful.
 
Apparently the're inspired by a bracelet of the same rhinestone design Cristobal did back in the 60's that Nicolas saw in the archives.
