Opinion | Vetements x Levis cheeky collaboration: butt-revealing jeans where to find them?

Many years ago I saw some shoes that I have dreamt of ever since. I realise it’s too late to get them, but could you help me find something similar? The high heels were covered in a fringe or tassels. Not the front of the shoe, not the ankles, but the back.
What a Tassel, Mid-Levels

The Dictator: You might want to have that checked into. Those are strange dreams you’re having. If everything is alright, then celebrate with a pair of Charlotte Olympia’s Miss Cha Cha Cha black-fringed 145mm heels (HK$7,800). She also makes the colourful Not-So-Secret Garden platform mule, with daisy appliques, polka dot printed mesh, a lady bug and suede fringed block heels (HK$9,800). Speaking of wildly fun designs, Dolce & Gabbana’s sequinned mary janes have alternating rows of purple, yellow and green fringes on four-inch block heels (HK$8,900). Also check out Valentino’s Rockstud Rolling Sandal with a rainbow fringe (HK$9,700). Embellished with silver-finish studs and turquoise stones, the shoe is available in tan or black suede. If you find mules appealing, check out Marco de Vincenzo’s design with tiers of fringe across the upper and down the heel in bright blue satin (HK$6,065; netaporter.com). Istanbul-based Sanayi 313 has a pair in black leather with a fringe made from burgundy, pink, black and off-white raffia (HK$9,130; farfetch.com). Singer Katy Perry’s shoe line includes more affordable but highly imaginative designs. The Mia (HK$1,081; katyperrycollections.com), for example, is a suede, open-toed sandal with rows of bead tassels on the 3.5-inch heel. To ensure the shoes match more than one of your Latin dance cos­tumes, it comes in black, fuchsia, teal or ocean blue.
