Manolo Blahnik unveils £4,380 crystal pom pom boots

From Harpers Bazaar UK

Manolo Blahnik loves an extravagant shoe. Just ask Rihanna, whose collaboration for the brand has included $4,000 (£3,000) denim boot-pants and $2,300 (£1,700) jewel-encrusted gladiator sandals. Now, the designer has come out with his most outrageous offering yet: one-of-a-kind fuschia boots covered in crystals and pom-poms, valued at $5,700 (£4,300). They were created in partnership with crystal supplier Preciosa and debuted at its flagship store in Prague, Czech Republic, earlier this week.

The unique pair of stiletto boots feature more than 100 Preciosa crystal chandelier trimmings. They were made in honour of Blahnik's traveling exhibition coming to Prague's Museum Kampa, The Art of Shoes, and will remain on display in-store until November.

In addition, Blahnik created 20 limited-edition Bohemian-inspired pairs of his classic Hangisi jewelled buckle pump all made with Czech lace and Preciosa crystals–an homage to his own Czech roots.
