Not All Looks Should Be Brought From Runway To Life: Daphne Guinness in Alexander McQueen Platform

by Editor on November 18, 2009 · 4 comments

Par2820300We saw them during Alexander McQueen Runway and yes, they were extreme, but that is what we love about Alexander McQueen theatrical runway shows.   However, a few brave humans will tackle bringing these “extreme” platforms to life.

Leave it to Daphne Guinness to challenge that assumption.   She graced Nars 15 years anniversary party in these King-Kong sized platforms and stood proud.AMDaphne_Guinness

What do you think of these?  Would you dare to wear them?  Daily? For a special occasion?

For less extreme, reasonably priced, certainly more wearable on a daily basis, check out these stylish finds:

I was just doing reserach on deconstructionism in fashion and found out that Alexander McQueen was very much effected by its filosophy. I love his 2010 collection, hovewer I am not so sure about the shoes…

Ugh! Those shoes are SO ugly! I honestly don’t think that I could be PAID to wear them!

Those shoes look as if someone took my toe shoes (for ballet) and stuck a heel on them. Yuck!
