Never underestimate the fashion industry. Even when you think you've seen it all, you really haven't. (We wrote about a bra-shaped bag [1] just last week!) The latest example is a pair of hybrid heels that manages to combine Western-inspired buckles and rubber flip-flops.
The Gothika Sandal Heels by Dsquared2 [2] first appeared on the runway in the brand's Spring 2018 [3] show during Milan Fashion Week. In March, the brand announced it would officially begin selling the shoes online [4] with one pretty shocking price tag of $1,485. The Instagram post quickly amassed over 27,000 "likes" and nearly 1,000 comments — far more than the brand's usual engagement on a post. Read on to get an up-close look at this slightly confusing footwear creation and see photos of its runway debut.
