When fashion giant Miu Miu sent a pair of encrusted socks in strappy, high heeled Maryjane’s down their fall runway, you know there was going to be a feast for all the fashionista’s tuned in.
Born out of the shadows of fashion titan Prada, Miu Miu certainly has made a name for itself in the fashion industry. Their Fall 2009 collection showcased quintessential Parisian fashion with coat dresses and exposed nude colored brassieres. The brand also sent out dresses and coats made from what most people thought looked like upholstery fabric. Other interests in the collections included pairing beautiful silk blouses with long flowing skirts.
However, one thing that set the radar of most fashion iconoclasts was the shoes that walked the runway. Prada’s little sister showed gorgeous strappy sandals in great neutral and bold colors and occasionally lined with fur. What’s more, they even paired it with embellished thigh high socks. Now, this got most people thinking. Is this really fashion or not? It is a Fall collection after all, so why not go for fashion and comfort, by keeping your legs warm while rocking that gorgeous skirt at the dead of winter?
These interesting socks can be bought from any Miu Miu branch at $425 a pair. However, if you’re looking to exercise some creativity, why not head off to the craft shop, get some fabric glue, beads and whole lot of embellishments and create your own version of the socks. They can do wonders to your ordinary looking Mary Jane shoes or T-strap sandals.
