There's nothing more to say about the Noritaka Tatehana collection except for "yikes." These death-defying stilettos almost put to shame the Alexander McQueen 12-inch heel that only Lady Gaga seems to be sporting.
Not only is one of the heels actually named 'Nightmare' but the coral one doesn't even have a heel, just a scary platform. The Noritaka Tatehana collection is undeniably crafty artwork but you'll need a prayer for these puppies if you don't want both ankles broken.
