The ultimate fashion mash up has just happened to shoes, ladies! In case you have not known yet, Yves Saint Laurent’s Roller Skate Stilettos are out on the market and any adventurous fashionista can have a pair all to herself for $2,600 or about Php 130,832.00.
Teen Vogue states that the Saint Laurent’s new creative director Anthony Vaccarello revealed the roller skate-stiletto in their latest autumn/winter collection. The shoes are also known as the Anja 100 Patch Pop Pump Roller stilettos. It’s heels are three-inches tall and attached to the shoe are a roller-skate wheel and a kick-stop brake. According to Marie Claire, the shoe comes in two retro designs: one with a Roy Lichtenstein pin-up with metallic lightning bolts, and the other is a snake print with a feather design. Both are incredibly bold and daring.
Saint Laurent’s Roller-Skate Stilettos: A Stylish Collectible
Who What Wear gives fashionistas a much-needed reality check, saying that it is “not safe, nor clever, nor a fashion thing to go roller skating in stilettos.” Saint Laurent may have decided to introduce the Anja 100 to be “a collector’s item to end all other collector’s items.” If anyone is a YSL collector, then they should definitely have a pair of these.
Sometimes fashion needs some spice to make things intriguing and interesting. Although some would feel otherwise, one thing is clear. Saint Laurent successfully painted the town read with their must-have accessory. They actually gave the 80’s and 90’s roller derby skates a shimmer-and-shine upgrade, making it a worthy fashion statement and collector’s item.
