Platform sandals by Marc Jacobs, $340.00 at Yoox. Let’s not even talk about how these look.  Let’s ignore that theses look like the mutant child of a disco ball and lava lamp.  Let’s not talk about how they slightly resemble stripper shoes.  Instead, let’s talk about how these are assembled.  Let’s discuss how that cannot be comfortable.  Let’s imagine the ugly hangover that would happen to the foot on that teeny metal strip.

Flip flops by YSL, $202.50 at My Theresa. Here is another example of the summer fashion failure epidemic.  Rubber flip flops costing over 200 bucks.  The shoes use the same motif as YSL’s relief bags. I am not a huge fan of these bags (Natalia Brilli does it better in my opinion) but there is something interesting and skilled about the leather work done to create the relief.  The rubber just needs someone to make a mold.  Where is the design in that?

Skull sandal by Guiseppe Zanotti, $450.00 at Madison LA. Here is another example of the summer sandal failures being rolled out.  With 10% sales tax, these shoes will hit $500 bucks.  Five hundred bucks for 4 strips of fabric and 2 charms.  On the bright side, you will have the most badass, rock on roll big toes on the block.
