Feminine elegance and sports comfort – those are the two word combinations one could use to describe the new collection by Cole Haan.  The new offer by the American brand includes luxurious high-heeled shoes, produced according to Nike technologies, with the secret of these models’ convenience being kept from the public.

The collection features casual hand-made shoes made of the skin of python of very bright colors. These shoes would surely guarantee attention to their wearer. This is definitely a shoe for those, who like adventures and look for passion.

And of course this collection could not do without exquisite and original footwear for special occasions. Evening shoes within the collection include elegant champagne colored shoes with figured curvature in the front. Another option is the tempting sandals of the same color with thin straps. Both the shoes are very feminine and elegant, which, like I said before, are the two adjectives that could describe this entire collection.

One of the most interesting and exclusive shoes within this Cole Haan’s Fall-Winter 2009/10 Collection is Cole Haan Nancy Air shoes, made of soft suede. The color of the shoe is very saturated and bright and is the shade of zinfandel grapes. A thin t-shaped strap is playfully decorated with small decorative tassels, jumping up and down as one moves.

Nancy Air shoes for classics lovers come in black and gray colors.

Cole Haan Air Milano sandal is a certain heart breaker of the season as well. This interesting sandal is made of soft metal-colored skin. The straps decorating the shoe interlace in a rather unusual way, with on of the straps even being connected to the heel.

This model is performed in a retro style – closed front shoes on a wooden platform come in tender lilac.

The collection also features heeled winter boots.

Shoes with creative designs from Proenza Schouler are there for all those who adore the unusual and strive for attention through effective and extravagant accessories. These bright and outstanding models come from no one else but Guiseppe Zanotti, who designs those artistic things for Proenza Schouler.

The first footwear collection by Proenza Schouler saw the light in 2008. Last year Guiseppe Zanotti signed a contract on creating exclusive footwear items for this pretty young brand. The females shoe collections Proenza Schouler are produced under the supervision of the designer for the second season in a row.

One of the most unusual models in Spring/Summer Collection 2009 is a sandal with a rather unique heel made of metal and fixed to the last with the help of a screw.

Half-boots tight-fitting the leg look incredibly sexy and passionate.

Another bold model is a shoe with a relief heel. In reality, this is a true stiletto heel, but it looks like a stable heel with cross-sections.

No less tempting and alluring shoes and high-heeled sandals will be coming in the season of Spring 2010. These interwoven shoes for example are a true piece of art, with even a heel having a somehow interwoven structure. The platform of this shoe is also rather unusual – its length is way smaller than the length of the foot itself.

The collection is generally notable in its fantastic shapes and bold designs. For Proenza Schouler it’s forever and always creative heels and platforms, complex and sophisticated architectural shapes and a truly unique decorum. If you are looking for something to make your routine days more exciting and fun, the shoes, created by Zanotti for Proenza Schouler, is exactly what you are looking for. Innovation and the spirit of experiment will never abandon you once you have the courage to step into this miracle!

Well, if this shoe does not prove the fact that anything, and I mean, literally anything, if combined with a little (or should I better say a lot?) of talent, can be transformed into a beautiful and unforgettable fetish, than what in the world does?

It looks like this time Giuseppe Zanotti decided to play a little with a fishbone, making into a real and unique designer miracle. After all a T-shaped strap is a rather original way of decorating a sandal.

Besides, it probably took a lot of courage to encrust those fishbones with diamonds. And just think of how sexy those sandals really turned out to be looking. Just by looking at the shoe, one can claim that Giuseppe Zanotti is a true genius – he managed to create beauty out of the ordinary (if not to say ugly)!

Now, let’s take a closer look at the shoe. The soft strap definitely created a contrast to the sharp and thin fishbone. It is most likely, that the designer did not choose the shoe topic at random. It is a known fact that one of the symbolic meanings of fish is associated with sexuality and passion. And if that really was the trick, we can most certainly verify its success – these evening sandals really do look fresh, provocative, defiant and sexy.

The backbone and the head of the fish are temptingly encrusted with shiny diamonds. Sharp metal bones risk cutting into the foot of the shoe’s lucky owner. The shoe creates the spirit of fire and passion around it. It even feels like if there was a mystical touch to the entire idea. All in all, the woman wearing these shoes would never stay unnoticed. This shoe is by far one of the boldest, most innovative and intriguing creations of the season.

Guided by global concerns about money, inevitably inspired by  the economic crisis, Moschino footwear brand provides their own response to the issue. Moschino summer collection is a nice and original surprise for brand’s fans – the designers decided to place money elements on their new products.

Moschino has always had the reputation of a brand that is quite full of unexpected turns, hidden motives and contextual designs. Their tendencies are prone to surrealism and unusual solutions.

This time Moschino decided to play with the notion of money and cheer up those pessimists, who gave way to despair in the time of the current economic crisis.

Moschino’s money are printed on thick textile that is used to decorate the top of extravagant Money shoes. The inner side of the shoe is also decorated with money prints. Money is accompanied with naïve bows and hearts, which makes the shoe all the more interesting. The first thought that comes to mind is that this is a manifestation of love to money be the designers. But with Moschino you never know. The hidden sense could be a lot deeper.

The toe of the shoe is accessorized with a cute bow, which looks in a way like a carelessly folded banknote with two coins on top.

One of the coins optimistically reads – Funny Money. Well, may be money isn’t really that funny, but Money shoes by Moschino really are.

In general, Money shoes have a vintage heel and quite a usual shape. It is only the financial decoration that makes the shoe unique, and, in that, so appealing. The shoe looks like a funny souvenir, but the one, that can be easily worn in real life. The luxury of wearing this shoe on your feet will only cost you about three hundred US dollars, but what is money? Money is funny!
