ironmask73 Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 The Alexander McQueen collection for Spring 2010 had some real eye candy. Especially since he's redone his shoes into something fantastic. The look of ballet boots without killing the toes! Check out the link below. The shoes themselves are highlighted in the last few pictures. http://projectrungay.blogspot.com/2009/10/alexander-mcqueen-spring-2010.html
Richy Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 Probably better photos, but this thread has a few comments regarding the McQueen collection http://www.hhplace.org/everybody/14851-most_ridiculous_shoes_ever_appear_catwalk.html
onyourtoes Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 They look like something Don Martin would draw.
5150PLB1 Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 They look like something Don Martin would draw. Quite right. You would almost expect to see Captain Klutz escorting some of the models down the runway.
Rockpup Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Reminds me of the attached boots for the suits used in "Bubblegum Crisis" http://daedalnexus.net/bubblegum/crisis/images/bgcpstxt.jpg (formerly known as "JimC")
DR Who 3 Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Yes very strange indeed. I like the colors though. It is too bad they didn't use real ballet boots and fshion them in the bright colors. Those shoes are kind of bulky looking on the end of those slender legs. Food for thought though no? Dr Who3
roniheels Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Too extreme for me, but I'm sure someone would love to have a pair or two. To each their own, I always say.
thighhighguy Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Very Extreme and should prove to be a hit, not the sort of thing i would try though.
Waisted_Giraffe Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 Very Extreme and should prove to be a hit, not the sort of thing i would try though. Not really that extreme; if you look close enough in some of the close up side views, you can see the profile of a pretty standard high heel under a covering. don't forget the scale of these things, they are rather big in order to cover up the high heel and achieve a ballet look. Don't get me wrong I like them but don't think we'll see them on the high street any time soon. R
jwhite44 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Wonder almost if they aren't intentionally grotesque, just to create some buzz about his show.
