Two coloured leather high arch heel-less shoes, 2025.
Inspired by 19th-century dress shoes, this design reimagines Victorian elegance through a provocative, modern lens. Its dramatically high arch exaggerates posture, referencing the body-shaping structures of the era. A full-length zipper down the back evokes both the ritual of dressing and the visual language of fetish wear. Balancing elegance and distortion, this heel-less piece explores tensions between past and present, fashion and fetish.
