Shoes Worn By Beyonce on Display


The gold shoes worn by Beyonce in the 'Run the World' video are part of an exhibit celebrating innovative shoe designs.
The art of high heels: exhibition celebrates shoe design


Beyonce's 'medieval armour' shoes among those featured in display of the crazy, beautiful and downright unwearable.

Hot on the heels of celebrities who believe the perfect shoe should resemble a bejewelled crab's claw comes an exhibition dedicated to shoes designed to be almost totally unwearable.

Shoes for Show: the Sculptural Art of High Heels, which opens in London next month, demonstrates that shoes can blur the boundary between art and fashion.

"I wanted not to dismiss the functionality [of the shoes], but to focus on their beauty by placing them in the context of a gallery as sculptural pieces of art," explained the exhibition's curator, Shonagh Marshall. "I wanted to highlight the mathematical proportion and precision that goes into shoe design."

Among the exhibits are the shoes worn by Beyoncé in the video Run the World (Girls): created by the maverick British designer Gareth Pugh, they resemble medieval face armour.

I'm sure she'll show up at the exhibit and declare she made the shoes with her bare hands after seeing a picture of her Creole grandma in a pair like them.

LOL Maybe she will speak of being inspired again or maybe she juat had another dream. Either way, her dumb ass will find a way of giving herself credit for the shoe design. And they are rather ugly....something gaga would wear.

Just wondering how much credit she will try to steal from said artist. Yall know she is not going to let him take all the shine; if any at all.
*sits and waits to read about him suing her*
