Fashion designers go to great lengths to surprise and conquer the sophisticated fashion public! Things got to the point where they began to create shoes, sandals and boots of incredible design. They are so creative and unusual that walking in them is sometimes very difficult, if not impossible.
We've found the most creative and original shoe items that are definitely worth a look, and maybe even try them on.
Porcelain shoes
1. When young designer Laura Papp was doing her thesis, she thought for a long time about what could impress strict teachers.
2. And then the girl got the idea to create fashionable shoes from porcelain and rubber.
3. Each pair of these weighs at least a kilogram, but, as the creator of the unusual shoes assures, they can withstand loads of 160 kilograms.
Knees forward
4. Designer Leanie van der Vyver decided to go against the norm and created some spectacularly terrible shoes (if you can call it that). With her project she wanted to show that women of fashion are, to one degree or another, dissatisfied with their appearance or clothes. According to the designer, only after trying to walk in an unnatural way will girls be able to appreciate even the most uncomfortable and high heels.
5. A girl who tries to take a step in uncomfortable shoes.
The longer the better
6. Men are often measured by the size of their car, house or salary. Such rivalry prompted Paulina Lenoir to create very long men's shoes.
7. You can definitely stand out from the crowd in these shoes.
8. The designer made them from high-quality calfskin and filled the socks with silicone so that they hold their shape better. Each shoe weighs exactly one kilogram.
9. Now men can safely measure the length of their own shoes.
Wooden sneakers
10. There are only 25 unique wooden sneakers in the world, designed by French designer Paul Coudamy for the K-Swiss shoe brand.
11. These shoes are unlikely to be worn for a run, but they can be an excellent addition to an unusual shoe collection.
12. These sneakers were made by hand, inspired by the design of boots from the late 19th - early 20th centuries.
Blurring boundaries
13. London-based artist and fashion designer Cat Potter decided to blur the line between fashion, architecture and fine art. The result of her labors was a collection of wooden shoes called Pernilla.
14. It includes sculptural shoes and high-rise sandals, which are not very comfortable to wear, but attract attention as art objects.
15. Design on the verge of fashion, architecture and fine art.
16. Sculptural shoes made of wood.
17. Wooden sandals.
Tree roots
19. Fashion designer Iris van Herpen is inspired by nature when creating her works. For example, she was inspired by tree roots for her next shoe collection. She managed to create their sculptural interpretation on shoes using a 3D printer. Despite the fact that wearing such shoes is extremely uncomfortable, they managed to take part in the Paris fashion show.
We all love beautiful, eye-catching, bright shoes. But sometimes designers, in an attempt to attract our attention and stand out from the crowd, cross the line called “too much”. And then we are surprised by their creations, discuss them, the most desperate fashionistas may even buy miracle shoes. Well, this is probably how the designers achieve their goal. After all, they talk about them!
Although my personal point of view is that, despite all the futurism, fashion should remain functional.
I present to you my “hit parade” of the strangest and most unusual shoes.
Would you decide to buy one of the pairs for yourself and wear it?
So,
10th place
Apparently these shoes were created by a very passionate fan of high heels and very long women's legs
9th place
Shoes similar to the Amazon woman's shoes
8th place
Shoes from Lady Gaga's famous "meat outfit". Naturally, like a true lady, Gaga's shoes are made to match the dress, made of meat, respectively)
7th place
Shoes that look like they were twisted from muzzle (the wire that holds the cork in a champagne bottle).
6th place
Shoes in the form of bar stools, apparently for those who like to sit at the bar, sipping a cocktail;-)
5th place
Hooved shoes with heels made in the shape of pistols... It’s even hard for me to imagine who or what these shoes are for lovers of))
4th place
Mirrored shoes from designer Andreia Chaves. Well, perhaps such shoes would be appropriate on Alice through the looking glass, for example, but for a more earthly woman, they still seem strange to me)
3rd place
It seems to me that the designer of these “cute” shoes clearly doesn’t like women... Maybe he got bullied by girls at school, and now he decided to take revenge? ))
2nd place
These creepy shoes could only have been invented by a pathologist, it seems to me... Or maybe it was a person suffering from foot fetishism?...
1 place
I gave the first place in our hit parade to these strange shoes from designer Julian Hakes. In my opinion, they completely lack any elements of shoes at all; moreover, it’s even difficult to understand where the toe and heel are in these shoes...
If you have photos of interesting and unusual shoes that were not included in my hit parade, post them in the comments to the post, it’s very interesting to see and discuss;-)
Thank you for your attention!

A series of parties is approaching to which you want to choose not only shiny pumps, but also a pair of unusual shoes. We've selected eight options for shoes and ankle boots with heels and unusually shaped platforms that you can now buy in online stores.
DUKAS
One of the most elegant pairs of shoes is shown by the Greek shoe brand DUKAS: peach-colored pumps on wedges with heels in the shape of women's legs. The DUKAS brand is young but remarkable. Since the early 2000s, they have shown their shoes at Italian haute-couture Fashion Weeks, and in 2004 they created sandals that became the mascot of the Olympic Games in Greece. In addition, the brand does not forget about charity. Every year, DUKAS creates an accessory, the proceeds from the sale of which go to the Leap to Life Association of Women with Breast Cancer.
Irregular Choice
The most fun pair is offered by the English shoe brand Irregular Choice: these are red and black velvet shoes with a gold toe and Santa instead of a heel. These are the kind of shoes you want to wear with shiny tights, like at the Meadham Kirchhoff show, and preferably in combination with stupid curls. When ordering this pair, remember that the Irregular Choice shoes run small, so go a half size up.
Jeffrey Campbell
We found nude suede Fendi shoes with a neat strap on the farfetch.com sale. They could have blended into the foot if it weren't for the distinctive spiked heel. This pair is currently 40% off.
FINSK
At first glance, Englishwoman Julia Landsten (a graduate of the Royal College of Art in London) makes avant-garde shoes that are unstable and unsuitable for life. However, it is not. Eyewitnesses say: you can walk. Julia developed the design of the shoes together with shoemakers in Brazil, who pass on their skills from generation to generation. Natural materials are used in production: the heel is wooden, the base of the shoe is leather.
Karl Lagerfeld for Melissa
Recently, the eco-friendly shoe label Melissa has been actively collaborating with Karl Lagerfeld. Their collaboration features a pair of glossy pumps with an ice cream heel. This pair, like all Melissa shoes, is made from melted down 100% recycled rubber. Whether you will be comfortable in it is another question. Melissa candy-rubber pumps often rub your feet.
WXY
We recommend taking note of the young Taiwanese shoe brand WXY, which produces futuristic shoes. For example, this architectural pair of shoes is made of soft leather, the heel resembles its own blueprint. The boots are available in yellow and black.
Women's shoes are an item of everyday wardrobe, life, protect your feet, help create new images, but at the same time they can be a work of art of a gifted master. Today, heels, along with flat-soled shoes, are experiencing a new rise and occupy a worthy place in the wardrobe of fashionistas and women of all ages, helping to emphasize style.
Stiletto heels, high heels, originally appeared around 1950, and the heel height was only 8-10 cm. Thin, thick, square and even unusual heels are designed to create the illusion of long legs, increase height, straighten posture, gait, and help you look confident.
Unusual shoes: a thematic selection of photos
We can see shoes with an unusual heel or a high platform in the stage images of stars: Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Nina Hagen, Jessica Parker and others. Below is a photo of Lady Gaga's shoes from the official website.
Each pair of such shoes is unique, made of different materials: leather, suede, neoprene and costs several thousand dollars. Rather, these are shoes for shows and are designed to destroy stereotypes and push the limits of the possible.
Many models with original heels cannot be classified as orthopedic and comfortable shoes - they are more works of art than industrial design. It is unlikely that anyone will be comfortable wearing such shoes in everyday life, be it at the office, at a party or at a dinner party in a restaurant. The models presented below will give you the opportunity to be unique in everyday life.
Always in fashion: a selection of interesting shoe models with unusual heels 2016, photo
Look at photos of women's shoes and ankle boots with original, high heels (photos from the collections of Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Giorgio Armani, Versace and others). They are of unusual shape, decorated with crystals, gold and transparent inserts, figurines, and pearls.
Such heels in models cannot compare with high heels, which are famous for their beauty and sexuality. However, such shoes can become the center of the composition of the image.
