You weren’t particularly impressed with Christian Louboutin’s attempt to add studs to a a stiletto ankle boot, but, undeterred, the man has clearly decided the world needs more of this lethal-looking footwear, and has come up with the Donjon over the knee boot, complete with scary studs.
Now, when I say "scary" here, I’m not just being facetious: I’m as clumsy as all hell, and those studs look pretty sharp to me when you view them in close up on the Net-a-Porter site. Imagine if you crossed your legs while wearing them! Or brushed up against a small child or household pet. Ouch!
I suspect these should probably come with some sort of health warning, but should they come with a fashion warning, too? Over to you…
I don’t exactly love the idea of an over-the-knee boot at all (unless your profession demands it, IE fisherman, exotic dancer, or dominatrix). But STUDS?
It makes me think that Pinhead has given up on the horror circuit and decided to start designing footwear. NOT sexy.
