What say thou? // Chunky

Dries Van Noten’s autumn winter 2010 – 2011 collection was an interesting mix of high and low. I really liked the contrast of the luxurious with the urban.

Although the shoes had a slight orthopedic feel to their steady chunky heel, they had me at go. It was a mix of satin, animal print, leather, suede etc uppers paired with a slanting chunky heel. I would not say no to pair or five…

  1. The shoe shape seems rather reminiscent of this Jil Sander shoe: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3055/2565280455_e0c4175efb.jpg

    Love, especially in leopard.

  3. Hmmm. Dries has me for everything. Love the creativity going into “I die” stilettos and love admiring them. These I want to wear. These are defiantly sexy in that wondrous way that classical with a twist is. These are kittenish and sexy in the way that a white blouse and a plaid skirt is; unexpectedly charming. And the clunk does amazing things for ankles. Can you imagine the juxtaposition of stockings with clocks, s strict pencil skirt and a crisp Anne Fontaine-type white blouse.

  10. Yves Saint Laurent did this in 2006. I have a pair – architectural and chunky. I love. Especially when the shoe has a super high AND chunky heel.

    I don’t know really…I love comfy wedges, but chunky heels…not sure about me wearing them :)

    Absolutely gorgeous. My favourite? The black suede stunners, they would look really hot with some summer shorts or some skinnies in fall.
