Unhealthy foot binding fantasy.



When I witnessed the latest show of  Ninna Ricci Fall ready-to-wear 09 on youtube, I was fascinated by the gigantic tall creatures that graced on the catwalks with no expression on their faces, not even in the slightest degree. Not to mention the heel-less laced-up platform ankle boots, sickle shaped at the back. How innovational this might seem, I have seen shoes similar to these. The idea derives from the concept that was introduced by Marc Jacobs, namely turning the heel sideways and it has slowly evolved into a heel-less shoes by Antonio Berardi. Now Ninna Ricci comes along elongating the heel-less shoe in a different coating. 


It's claimed that you can't wear these shoes for a long time, obviously as all the pressure is on your toes. You'd feel pretty much a horse wearing this extreme extravaganza on your feet but it did definitely add drama to the spectacular collection of the Ninna Ricci show
