The stilettos are designed by Bruno Frisoni, the creative director of the French luxury cobblers. They were unveiled during the Paris Haute Couture season this week.

They feature an assortment of life’s little luxuries such as 24 ct gold-coated mesh, semi-precious stones, jet, satin ribbons, silk chiffon, diamanté and crocodile skin fashioned into dainty rosettes.

The “Dovima”, an 11cm, spike-heeled confection of gilded silk mesh and jewels, is embellished with a pair of rose pink-dyed, taxidermy birds with gold and crystal heads.

Another style called “Daphne”, in honour of the best-dressed socialite and millionairess, Daphne Guinness, the ex-wife of Greek shipping heir, Spyros Niarchos.

The complete collection, called « One is Too », includes six hand-made creations, starting at £9,500 a pair and rising up to an exorbitant £30,000 price tag.

They can be made-to-order – but allow between two to three months for delivery. Via: Telegraph
