Jean Paul Gaultier is really in his element at the moment, designing cone bras, bondage tops and neon orange hot-pants (and getting away with it) and he's having an awful lot of fun with the models' feet, too.

At his recent spring/summer 2010 show in Paris, there were two main styles on show: sturdy, strappy work boots and delicate, minimalist ribbon-tie shoes in various colours. All footwear was set off by bold, block colour tights with Henry-Hollands style trompe trompe l'oeil hosiery effects. I particularly love the cut-out DM boot.
