For his fall winter 2008/2009 collection, Alexander McQueen imagined an impressive show, with glamour jewelries and astonishing outfits.

After a trip to India, the designer worked like a fiend for months in his studio, with images of Queen Victoria, the Duke of Wellington, and the Indian Empire running through his mind.

And it’s a ready to wear collection… simply impressive!

Origami shoes

Ok, these are origami shoes. Do you wonder how these shoes can be assembled? Oh well it’s something similar with the instructions you receive when you buy a piece of furniture from Ikea.

The shoes were created by Catherine Meuter and the cost of these shoes is significant reduced. You can’t pass without beeing noticed if you wear these shoes. The shape is geometric and it seems almost architectural.

Would you wear a pair of these shoes?

Personal touch - cool ballerinas

Bobsmade paints with coffee and teaches us how to personalize our shoes. The work she has done till now shows she has some talent, and with a little bit of help and practice I think we could make something that could resemble. Or not. But it’s worth trying.

I love the ballerinas and the personal touch.
