Scary, Artistic, Ugly and Beautiful Shoes
By Yewande Cole
I have seen many ugly and terribly high shoes, these are something else.
This new pair dubbed "Scary Beautiful" is definitely the wicked and treacherous footwear I've ever seen. The massive heels appear backwards on the foot, so the wearer’s feet point straight down the back, as if in ballet shoes, with their shin leaning against the front "heel" end of the design to balance. The shoes is a collaboration between artist Leanie van der Vyver and Dutch shoe designer René van den Berg, and serve as a commentary on today's impossible standards of beauty.
Fashionistas beware…don’t end up in an orthopedic hospital with twisted ankles.
