Multi-Colored Couture Kicks

The Prada Tricolor Lace-up Shoes are a Treat For the Hipsters

Fashion week may have passed by in many parts of the world, but the feisty fashion craze that has started is just the beginning, with the Prada tricolor lace-up shoes as the tip of the iceberg.

After the Prada Spring/Summer 2011 collection was revealed, the most sought-after shoes were the tricolor leather loafers. They are a complete mix of burgundy, sea green and dark blue colors blended on one shoe. The layered rubber soles and winged tips create a funky fashion that makes these the most anticipated shoes of the year.

Adding even more intrigue, Prada has only made these couture kicks available on line to a select few. Ultimately, these killer loafers have surely launched a multi-color craze.
