The Ugliest Shoes You've Seen Apr 2003 - Jul 2009

[Diorling]

^ So glad I missed those while browsing through the mens shoes....

These are pretty freakish looking, no?

Those look like a fake pair of Manolo's I saw...Or were they real...were they even Manolos?

 

[fashionist]

YSL, again!

They look like something Ms. Gulch from the Wizard of Oz would wear.

OMG! I haven't seen anything to compete with that but....

Gucci

 

[evexa]

Get ready for this pair guys...they are scary!

PLASTIC'S WIFE WAS RIGHT!!
Those are REAL Manolos!!##$@#%^#^%
I thought the seller was having a laugh when he claimed they were authentic.
They look like somthing that would come out of a taiwanese sweatshop!

This is the official word:
Schiafo Beaded Mule

"Manolo Blahnik, one of my favorites"
One of a select number of limited-edition vintage reissues, each inspired by Manolo Blahnik's recent show at The Design Museum in London and re-created with a modern twist.

The "Schiafo" style, in Manolo Blahnik's own words: "My mule embroidered with different pearls and colored stone. It reminds me of the rich baroque court of Naples centuries ago."

• In a limited edition of 176.
• Originally introduced in 1995.
• In fuschia satin with multicolored stones.
• 3 1/2" heel.
• Made in Italy.

These are probably too understated to be called the ugliest, but they are certainly the most awkwardly conceived things ever!

fendi (from eluxury)
sherling with 'rubber squirrel bearing a nut'
they look like toddler boots- any women willing to pay $650.....

The actual shoe is gorgeous but the little bridge thing is horrendous. I suppose Stella thinks it is high fashion, when in reality a shoe with a lot of potential is ruined.

 

[Luna]

haha... how weird... it's like... a non-wedge wedge....

 

[stilettogirl84]

normally I Dolce and gabanna shoes, but these are just unwearable. They look like my grandma's shoes, but with embroidery and a stliletto heel. What the#@$%

and they're $1250.00 !?!?!?

 

[rhiannonmars]

These shoes are all disgusting!!!

I can't believe Karl designs for Fendi.

Gucci

**EDIT : Remove pics when quoting**

These aren't so bad. They are very mod. I'm sure I could find a nice outfit for these, though I'm not that into chunky heels.

That's what I thought. I have seen far worse, though I probably would never wear those shoes myself. Just aren't my style.

If someone gave me those, I'd wear them for laughs

[emma peel]

those are... a hooker met liberace, and i didn't stick around for the aftermath

 

[travis_nw8]

ok, u-turn time- i saw the fendi's today in the men's size and quite like them...

 

[Spike413]

Wow, those Versace's.....um, the only person I could see pulling those off and not looking horrible is Ziggy Stardust.

 

[stilista]

weren't the white gucci shoes part of the Tom Ford's first collection in '95? They don't look so good now, but they were great then, with the white flared pants and fur jackets. How I loved that collection!


and StilettoGirl - I'd absolutely wear those Dolce & Gabbana shoes! Exactly my kind of thing B)

 

[Spike413]

^ Gucci actually re-worked the f/w 95 pump and boot for Tom's final collection. They weren't as good the second time around. The buckle was much nicer on the originals, not to mention the colors.
