Alexander Wang Velvet Sandals

Filed under: Shoes

Alexander Wang takes the combination of American Sports with high fashion to an all new level with his Open-Toed Sandals ($499). Initially shown at his Spring 2010 fashion show, his leather and velvet open toed sandals are accented with black shoe laces that are wrapped around the top of the shoe and gathers together in knot on the side. I can't say that I've ever seen shoelaces manipulated in this way, but hats off to Alexander Wang for being creative and trying something different. Luckily, the laces just barely touch the ground so you won't trip. View his looks below to see them paired with toeless knee socks for an unexpected and playful look.
