Trend Hunter has done many wonderful features on very weird, strange-looking and plain dangerous shoes; however, I think this batch of footwear should definitely be included in that long list.
The bizarre, tall-heeled metal sandals displayed in the second picture in the gallery look like an exquisite and excruciatingly painful torture device from the time of the inquisition.
The tall, see-through stripper shoes with the insects inside the humongous platforms are really a total riot! And so are the fish shoes, the long lace up, the hip-hugging snickers and the rest of this wild footwear.
On a related note, what’s up with those fugly cork shoes?
