Fashion Magazine in Canada has recreated the coveted Prada Fall 2012 DIY shoe by incorporating leather appliqués to a Forever21 platformed heel. This look will cost you a total of $35, compared to the Prada shoe at an estimated $800. This close replica is crafted with the following supplies: red leather, white leather, leather glue, black felt pen, scissors and a ruler. Begin by constructing the geometric shape onto a piece of paper. Cut out the shape and trace onto leather then cut the leather. Construct the small, white appliqués to the larger red pieces. Proceed to glue these to the top of the platformed heel.
This Prada Fall 2012 DIY shoe is simple and direct. Its identical properties make it a fabulous shoe to trot around the city in.
