I've blown this image up huge so you can see the detail and work that's gone into designing this glorious shoe. Who'd have thought that studs and velvet roses would sit so well together?
Prada's full A/W collection took me a while to come around to liking becuase it's so stridently different from anything else we've seen in a long time, and I even had a couple lined up for 'ugly shoe of the week!' Aside from the tree-trunk stems on many of the shoes, the colours are outrageous and there's not an ounce of subtlty in sight. But with pieces like this with their hard and soft elements that work so well together, how can you fail to be drawn in?
