The ornate nature of these Alexander McQueen Fall 2010 – 2011 shoes has me speechless. The Object Fetish by SHOWstudio: Alexander McQueen Fall Winter 2010 – 2011 Shoes video blew me away but I didn’t realize how extensive the ornate shoe collection was.

I’d love to see these up close. I’m so curious about the materials used. The heels look like they are made of plastic.  I can’t believe they would be some kind of metal, seems that would be too heavy.  I wonder how long some of these embroidered pieces take to produce?
