Christian Louboutin makes fetish ballet heels, just like Beyonce's!

Following on from Lucy's column on impractical shoes earlier today, how about these for "impractical"? They're Christian Louboutin's fetish ballet heels, and when I spotted them over at Catwalk Queen my toes stared to throb at the very sight of them. They're very like the shoes Beyonce's dancers wear in the video for 'Green Light', but luckily those of us who don't dance for Beyonce have the perfect excuse not to wear them, as even the designer says they're not exactly practical.

"You can't walk or run in these shoes," said Louboutin. "They're only made for lying on your back." I suspect that's something we could have worked out for ourselves, Mr. L... The shoes will be on show at David Lynch's Fetish exhibition, opening on 2nd October at the Galerie du Passage in Paris. Strictly an exhibition piece, although at least they'd give you plenty of scope for flashing those red soles!

might sound stupid, but they are not even nice to look at..
if at least it was making sense, even on your back I dont see how those would stay on your feets.
and they are full of fingerprints or something.

Mr L should be more careful when he decides to make something for an expo

The be perfectly honest these look like a certain male organ when flaccid. It is surprising that they are made by Mr. L because I've seen better fetish shoes from *ahem* much less calssy sources.

Oh my gosh, Estella you're so right (about the male organ comment....)

Not that I've ever seen one in black patent leather....

They are the sexiest heels ever!!!

What we need is more girls willing to wear this type of shoe.... I know I will.
