Holy High Heels! People Climbing Platform Leather Boots by United Nude.

A brand new not yet released limited edition shoe from United Nude features a black leather zippered platform ankle boot embellished with three dimensional gold-tone metal human figures atop some of the highest heels I've ever seen.






On their facebook page, United Nude commented that perhaps Lady Gaga, who is launching her new perfume at Macy's in NY today, would rock them. I can't really think of anyone who better suited to do some steppin' in these outrageous shoes.

As Beautiful Coming As Going. The Givenchy A/W 2012-13 Haute Couture Collection.

The Autumn Winter 2012- 2013 collection of Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy consisted of only 10 designs. But those ten designs are absolutely jaw-dropping with their impeccable detailing and craftsmanship.



Mixing elegant feminine silhouettes reminiscent of the 60s combined with the opulence of Gypsy-like capes, elaborate trimmings and edgings, Tisci has created pieces with as much attention to the rear view as the front view.




Each element is laden with complicated handiwork: beading, fringe, basketweave-woven leather, even mink - sheared, shaved and cut out to resemble embroidery and as trim. I can't do the collection justice with words. Just look at the breathtaking photos from the collection's debut in Paris.

These ten pieces really exemplify Haute Couture:
