Surface and Substance: Shoe

Yes. ANOTHER shoe project. Here are the roughs.

McQueen inspired. Either a lace or a faux animal skin (like snake or some other reptile). Filigree-like heel.

Basically a nude stocking on a heel. I want to create the effect of a tattoo on the leg - which would actually be on the stock. Inner support system. Tattoos would be reminiscent of Chanel temporary tattoos.

Easter egg inspired, actually. The black line through the middle is where the fut would rest. The egg shape is created with a cut out in the shoe and heel. McQueen color theme.

Peacock inspired shoes, would be made from actual peacock feathers. One or two would wrap around the leg, with wire support.

Butterfly inspired. "Flight of fancy" taken literally. Ribbon and fabric shoe with butterflies on the heel and on the ankle strap.



Which do you think is the best to make?
