Trend: Hyper-Heels

Collection: Fall 2009 RTW
.
.

After going through some 80 collections for Fall 2009 RTW, I must say that there were a number of designers who came out with fantastic shoes.
.
One trend that was very common in footwear was extremely exaggerated heels.
The type that no one besides Victoria Beckham can walk in (alright, I could, too).
.
Amongst the best were; Dolce & Gabbana, Donna Karan, Fendi, John Galliano and YvesSaintLaurent.
.
My favourite pair by far would, naturally, be the John Galliano's. They're just so ridiculously fabulous, they make me want to cry.
.
If I wore those somewhere, I would a) be as tall as Naomi Campbell, b) look totally badass, and c) probably break both ankles, but I wouldn't care.

When it comes to practicality, I'm sure any of the others would be quite adequate.

Though the ones that were on display at Donna Karan aren't exactly hyper-heels, I still imagine them to be quite high.
I love how they look a little Gladiator-esque.

YSL had a very interesting shape - one that I would totally buy into, while Fendi had a more classic take on hyper-heels; ankle boots with HUGE heels.
LOVES IT.

Last, but certainly not least, we have those of Dolce & Gabbana.
Those that really remind me of Little Mermaid. Kind of looks under the sea-ish, with the pearl in the middle and the oyster looking sides, eh?
Genius.

I just can't believe these heels. SERIOUSLY.
They're all just way too amazing for me to handle.
.
Dolce & Gabbana: 9.5/10
Donna Karan: 8.5/10
Fendi: 9/10
John Galliano: 11/10
YSL: 10/10


Rock on.
