you all know how much i love trends that cost $100s-$1000s and then go away in a few months
YSL brand unleashed these garbage crate things on us
$1590
what do they look like to you?
they remind me of cheap jelly shoes from the 80s
the real deal YSL unfortunately died last summer. the only US stop of the commemorative exhibition is in san francisco at the de young museum. it was amazing! so if you’re in the area…
thanks, carlie!

They remind me of seeing my feet turn from peachy pink to pure white to deep indigo and wincing in horrible, agonising pain.

Just imagine the trippy tan lines you’d end up with.

Or you little toes stick out off the frame. Annoying is a mild statement!
LOL, once I had a pair of open shoes and with a plaster I glued my little toe to my fourth toe to let it not stick out! The shoes were so lovely you see……

why oh why must we cage our feet?
it reminds me of a HUGE crate we got for our great dane puppy to crate train him.
as a sidenote, my great dane would LOVE to eat those. yum!

Those shoes remind me of those temporary plastic fences that are put up at outdoor concerts. The only difference is that they are black instead of orange.

YSL was a cool dude. check out the documentary about him. Michael love fashion designers, so now I know all about quite a few of them…or at least some interesting details. They tend to be quite fascinating people…

fascinating is a good word

You people who try to bag on these shoes attempting to say that ysl is going downhill becuase he died is a pethetic argument.these heels represent Parisian culture at it’s best. A huge crate for a great Dane ??? Umm try the eifell tower?!!.!.?.!.?!!!!!!I. I would love to fuck a supermodel wearing theeSe and then bust my nut on all of you.
