Melissa Shoes partners with Jean-Paul Gaultier to create these pin-heel sandals, available for purchase Spring 2010.

Lorenzo recently worked on the Melissa shoes shoot for Nylon’s September issue. “Directing was unusual for me–at Chandelier I focus on strategy for brands, but with Melissa I had the freedom to create the story with the stylist and the photographer, it was very cool!”

Everything about these shoes is creepy: the way they are barely visible, the discomfort in my mind when I imagine the way jelly spider webs must feel on your feet and the fact that someone is actually trying to sell them for $79. I’m trying to imagine the intended time for these shoes to be worn; not the beach because sand will totally get caught in them, not the rain because your feet will totally get wet, and not a long walk because they are rubber! Pointless!
