Donna Karan’s Birds of Paradise
posted by: freePOrnaoa in General on February 4th, 2011
DKNY has combined two of the year’s biggest shoe trends, feathers and crystals, in its Bird of Paradise gladiators. I guess they’ve found a way to reinvent the gladiator — by basically hiding it behind feathers!
The shoes have been strutted on the red carpet by Ms. Emmy Rossum, wearing a daring contrasting red dress.
I like the idea of these with silk cropped slacks or silk shorts, or a dramatic gown where the “bird of paradise” feathers just barely peep out.
This shoe might win the award for most trends combined in a shoe, from color to crystals to feathers.
$1,390; call 866-240-4700.

These are stunning, but I'm a bit of a sucker for brilliant jewel tones…and feathers, when done right, are truly decadent.
