The World's most expensive shoes!
Permalink Closed




THE CINDERELLA SLIPPERS: How much could a pair of shoes cost? Well, the world's most expensive pair of women's shoes costs a cool $2 million!

The one-of-a-kind 4½-inch stiletto sandals are studded with 565 platinum-set Kwiat diamonds (which include 55 carats of clear diamonds and one big 5-carat stone).

The 'Cinderella slippers,' as Stuart Weitzman, the designer of the fantasy sandals, calls them, were worn by singer Alison Krauss (nominated for best song for the film Cold Mountain) at the 2004 Oscars ceremony.

I remeember these well on Alison Krauss' feet...but I still don't get the one off center red stone...seems like it is strictly for bragging rights and does not serve much of an aestetic purpose, i mean, who gets that close up to ones feet to appreciate the stone's beauty? I digress... ;)

They look like Payless shoes to me.  Noone would know they were diamonds or glass on someones feet, sheesh!  Plus, couldnt' he make them look better, what kind of design is that?  Maybe it looks better on...

Yeah, me too, but my dog chewed them up.


I agree with Drew - the design is completely blah.
