See-Through High Heels

Spring 2010 Shoes Take on Transparent Proportions

Although clear heels have always been around (albeit more in the naughty fashion scene), Spring 2010 shoes are making a serious case for the see-through theme.

Transparent shoes were all over the Spring runways, including those of Dsquared2, Prada and Fendi. Prada’s shoes were all no-nonsense with metallic accents, while Fendi’s Spring 2010 shoes had a softer look with pretty ties and a clear stacked platform and Dsquared2 rocked out with studded embellishments. Definitely an interesting turn for footwear!
