Fashion is a lot of things: a way to express yourself; a form of social identity; an art form, but most of all, it is subjective. We don’t all prescribe to the same taste, style or embrace the same trends, so what you think looks good out there may not be so great looking to the next person.
As the years go by, the stranger fashion creations become; and that’s okay because we are all for weird, eccentric and different. Avant-garde fashion brands that break the mould get people talking and one such brand that’s been consistent with this has been Italian luxury house, Gucci.
Just as Mzansi warmed up to its furry loafers made popular by trendy cotton eaters such as Riky Rick and Amanda du Pont, the elite fashion group hit us with another jaw dropping or rather, head scratching creation – depending on which side of the fence you’re on!
These Gucci “vintage shaped pumps with a zebra-inspired pattern and goat hair tail on the back” heels recently caught our attention, again proving that the world of fashion may not necessarily be for the closed-minded or faint hearted.
The monochrome pump heels are inspired by the striped African animal and even have dyed goats hair strapped to its back – talk about creating a lasting impression and that “wow” effect.
These babies are for the confident cause there is no way you can rock them without causing a stir, making a statement and turning heads in them streets.
So, fashionista, are these a yay or nay for you? Let us know.
