Giuseppe Zanotti for the Wednesday
Manolo says, here is something new and beautiful from Giuseppe Zanotti. the strappy, high-heeled sandal with the unusual crystal ornamentation.
This is perhaps one of the most stunning shoes the Manolo has ever seen from Giuseppe Zanotti, truly among his best work.

I love the shoes that you show us on the blog, but I would love them more if you could show them with a foot in them.

Unfortunately, the photos that the Manolo pulls are the ones that Zappos uses to describe their shoes. So he is constrained by that.
But funnily enough, I have written to Zappos in the recent past, and suggested that they have a photo available showing strappy sandals on a wearer’s foot, just so we can see how the straps fit on an actual foot. They responded positively, and perhaps if more people would request this of them, they will implement it?

Hiring foot models and doing shoots for every shoe sold would be unduly expensive. It also wouldn’t necessarily be so informative, because how a shoe looks on a perfectly pedicured foot model may not tell you much about how it will look on your own feet.

I am rather addicted to the shoes of Giuseppe Zanotti, and they are always my first choice for the imaginary prize at the virtual, hypothetical award ceremony for the Friday Caption Contest.
