$6,295 for shoes? Is the fashion world happily divorced from the current economic reality?

How appropriate that they’re inspired by Marie Antoinnette. :) Let them buy shoes!

People like Posh Spice (David Beckham’s wife) will buythem or be given
a pair to wear. Or if they are considered a collectible (like a Dusenberg)
and won’t be worn, someone will buy them.

Hey if you have the cash and you like the shoes... why not?

I like Christian Louboutin’s Shoes, but the pairs displayed are off. He does have a pair displayed in the April Issue of Glamour Magazine, page 214: high heeled slingbacks in black with a small bowtie in the front of the shoes. Paired with the classy balck dress by Giambatista Valli, classy elegance. If I had a million dollars or won the lottery, I would afford myself the shoes and dress./Just Asking - seoul62......

I wouldn’t pay $62.95 for shoes. For those shoes, I wouldn’t pay $5 at Goodwill.

I wouldn’t. At least not for those shoes. In the first place, I don’t have the money right now. In the second place, I’m guessing M. Louboutin doesn’t normally make those babies in mens’ size 11. In the third place, even if he did, I’d look pretty odd in them. Trust me on this.

Be prepared to see the yellow pair on our Fuhrers’ Michelle any day now. I wonder if they come in 12EE?

Tacky, kitschy, ugly. And uncomfortable-looking, to boot.
