Crime of Fashion? More Shoe/Bag hybrids by Azumi & David

Only, not really, because if you tried to put these on your feet, you’d get some funny looks, wouldn’t you? Then again, if you carried it as a bag, you’d probably STILL get some funny looks: such is the tragedy of the shoe/bag. We’d say it was a bag for shoe lovers, but… shoe lovers probably wouldn’t actually love this, would they?

  1. How did they photograph the side so the second heel did not show??

    You just know your keys and lipstick would always wind up wedged in the toe of the shoe.
