Ugly Shoe of the Week: Comme des Garcons

comme-des-garcons.jpgAs Shoeperwoman observes, there's been a disturbing spate of 'footwear with faces' recently but in the case of these rather upsetting 'toe' shoes by Comme des Garcons, the designer has at least got a basic grasp of anatomy.

My problem with these shoes and indeed any that emphasise the toes is that toes really aren't a part of the body I particularly want to celebrate. Vivienne Westwood just about gets away with it in her kooky animal-toe bondage boots, but the toes here don't look particularly healthy, and get in the way of what would otherwise be a highly wearable style.

Why not celebrate toes? It seems a very thankless job, being a toe... you wouldn't be able to walk without them!

I like the overall design of the shoe. I think they would be better if there were not feet painted on the shoe. To me this just does not look right. It is definitely a different idea. It could sell or not. I guess it all depends on if people want to give this new look a try.

To be honest. I would not wear these shoes. I might were them for fun. A day i would were them would be when i am dressing up or going to through a party. They could be good part shoes because the design could go with some nice part outfits.

Oh these shoes are really cute. I think my daughter would like these. Looks like great dress shoes to me. I dont know any men that would were them but i know a few women that would.
