Embellishments that start with the letter ‘B’, such as butterflies and bow-ties, are popular accoutrements for Spring 2010. Models at the Matthew Williamson Spring 2010 show were sporting bow-tied, peep-toe booties made of stiff silk taffeta.
The always groovy Anna Sui looked to Mariah Carey’s favorite insect for footwear inspiration. Butterflies were the obvious inspiration for Sui’s gladiator sandals and cut-out platform ankle booties. It seems that shoes with butterflies and bow-ties will be taking flight this coming Spring.
