Which Alexander McQueen S2010 Runway Shoes Would You Wear?
Alexander McQueen was not only a brilliant designer and showman, but he was also a non-conformist; a rebel; a radical; and a visionary of sorts.
Before his unfortunate passing, he made this all the more clear by presenting outrageous and ridiculously life-threatening shoes in his 2010 Spring Collection. I am of course, pertaining to none other than the jaw-dropping 10-inch Armadillo shoes, which by the way, looked more like (forgive me for saying this) eerie alien claws from the movie “District 9” (sorry, these shoes don’t seem like lobster claws to me).

As expected, anything McQueen always made quite an impression because right after the show, Lady Gaga booked the shoes for her “Bad Romance” video. Other celebrities who were courageous enough to wear the Armadillos were Daphne Guiness and Kelis (who went all out in a spiky cat looking costume).

In a way, the Armadillo was McQueen’s highlight, but there were other equally interesting pairs presented in his collection that most people overlooked.
I am talking about the mechanical-heeled Titanic Ballerina, and the Necromnomican-inspired Alien heels:

Probably not as high as the Armadillo shoes, but still shockingly astounding to look at, don’t you agree?
If you’re a collector, or you intend to collect any of these shoes, purchasing one will cost you between US$3,900-US$10,000. Good luck in getting a pair though, because these Mcqueen runway shoes come in limited number.
So then comes the question, if you had the chance to wear one of these alien-driven fantastical McQueen footwear for FREE, which pair would you wear for fashion’s sake (reason and logic aside)?

Logic and reason mean nothing to me. I’d more than gladly wear any of the above McQueen creations. I desperately want necronomicon heels. or armadillo shoes. Too bad they’re more money than pretty much anything I own.
