Balmain Jeweled Sandal Stilettos Spring/Summer 2009

[indygo]

Does anyone now where I can find a picture (sort of a close up) of the jeweled stiletto sandals from the 2009 Balmain runway?

Thank you! Do you know where I can find one w/ a model's foot in it? (like the runway photos?)

 

[empaulio]

sorry i dont, maybe if the show is on style.com sometimes they have some detailed shots of some of the shows.

style.com didn't have detail shots but elle.com did...see pic below...
firstview would also have more detailed shots...

 

[indygo]

That's amazing! Thank you so much! You guys are pros.

Has anyone seen the Zara knockoffs in real life? Not quite as mouth-watering, but I'm very curious...

Are those in stores? I would buy. Except that those stockings she's wearing make the shoes look worse.

aldo makes a version as well...

They're stunning! I love them.

does anyone know which u.s. stores will carry this shoe? and what the u.s. price will be? i'm guessing....over $2k? so far i've only seen it on LVR and sizes are already selling out. any chance dept. stores here will get them and the shoes will make it to the end-of-season sales? or is it just a pipe dream.

^^probably a pipe dream, we might have to wait for the king of "inspired" steve madden

Gosh it must be nice to be a celeb and wear Balmain head to toe. I love that outfit and the shoes are TDF. The k/o versions don't look anything like the real thing imo.

wow, those Zaras are DAMN close!

There is not enough on the ankle of the zara. I read on a blog that bebe had some but I went to the site and saw nothing.

the Zara version is just missing those huge as$ rhinestones. nothing a trip to the hobby supply shop can't fix!

those shoes are stunning. would love to have them on my feet!

 

[entirely officia]

I'd love to see a DIY on that!

do the sandals in the second picture look like a flat version of the ss09 balmain heels to anyone else?

jak&jil
it's strange because the picture was taken outside of the ss09 gucci show, which was a week before the balmain show in paris.....

^If you didn't know yet, the sandals are Steve Maddens from last year. They do look like the flat version! I don't own them but I do like them.
