Even though, shoes were not supposed to play the first violin in Victoria's Secret show, it was nearly impossible to take ones eyes of them.
Shoes played a crucial role in the show. They added spaciness, extravagance and colour to the whole event.
First of all - charismatic
Giuseppe Zanotti, the designer of the footwear for Victoria’s Secret show, is some serious shoe maniac. He loves to play with forms and shapes. Boots, booties and sandals from the show refer to mystique culture and the wild part of women's nature. ‘Enchanted forest’ was the leading motif of the evening.
Second of all - over-knee boots
Over-knee boots are this season's most characteristic accent. No important fashion show could take place without them. These boots looked amazing on Miranda Kerr's extreme legs. The original, wide upper and parallel straps added flamboyance to every single creation.
Third of all - sexy
Victoria’s Secret lingerie is always sexy. The fact that designers who work on the collections always manage to separate sex appeal from lasciviousness, always amazes me. Both, clothes and Zanotti's shoes, looked romantic, elegant and dreamy like. As usual, everything was in a good taste.
Fourthly - playing with patterns and colours
Sandals adorned with cherries? Booties in colours of USA flag? Winged shaft? Why not! Some of these ideas may be to flashy to be led into the mass productions, but it doesn't change the fact that they still evoked a remarkable impression and surely encouraged the spectators to go for more daring material and colours.
Lastly - Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum, the model who gave birth to her fourth child just four months earlier, appeared on the runway accompanied by extremely skinny girls. All were scantily dressed, all looking just fantastic. We congratulate the young mum on the courage and the fast return to the form .
