Block Heels Make Comeback

THE season’s fashion must-have is a £700 (approx. $975) shoe that would be more at home in a toy shop.

According to UK Times, "the most talked about item on the catwalk [is] Balenciaga’s robot shoes, which look as though they’ve been made from Lego."

The Sportiletto is designed by Nicolas Ghesquiere for fashion house Balenciaga.
Disappointed fashionistas in London have had to settle for standing orders right now, as demand has out-paced supply.

The colors and material of the Sportiletto remind me of Lego; but with the rivets, I'd say these shoes are more characteristic of Meccano.
