Shoe D’Jour : Killer Heels

by jennine on February 6, 2008

I have nothing to say, but again… After seeing Christian Louboutin’s shoes for Rodarte’s AW08 collection, Louboutin is truly an artist. These are insanely beautiful and frightening, much like the inspiration of anime horror.

Amendment: I got distracted to post this earlier… but Marimello brought it up… is anyone just LOVING the tights???? Can anyone knit me a pair? perhaps I can try to crochet one… but that might be odd.

I had the same thought about the tights when I clicked through Rodarte. So inspired by the collection! These could be made with fine yarn on huge needles and the random holes made by dropping the occasional stitch. I have a pattern for knit stockings that is similar, but done on finer needles. I’ll experiment and let you know what I come up with!!

the shoes are awesome, but the tights I’m guessing wouldn’t look very good outside the runway…

you could try to knit those tights, or your could just try to teach some one to knit and it would look pretty much the same.
Oh Santosuke, yee of little faith! Opaque tights + loose knit thigh highs = best layer since shiny black leggings

they are stunning! you could make them and i think the light or nude coloured pair would look lovely off the runway.

As accustomed to spikes and studs as I get, they never stop making me nostalgic for loitering around the local goth/punk/S&M store when I was in high school…
