Today’s featured high heels are truly fly. They’re beautiful 4.5 inch sandals from Sergio Rossi, the highlight of which is a gorgeous gold-tone butterfly detail that wraps around the side and back of the foot.
The butterfly stilettos were created in 2013 and show all the craftsmanship for which Sergio Rossi heels are famous, plus a great deal of imagination as well.
When I see a creation like this, it serves to remind me that the Italian brandname deserves to be considered in the same breath as other big-name, high-end high heel designers that soak up so much press attention.
High-end is certainly what this shoe is, and it had a price tag ($1,150 from Zappos) to match. Unfortunately the heels are now sold out.
These heels were handmade in Italy with the care and attention for which Sergio Rossi heels are known: the label boasts that there are a minimum of one hundred and twenty steps that are taken before a shoe is placed in a box for sale with the Sergio Rossi name. Purchasers would of course also get a shoe made of decent materials for your money (the lining, insole, outsole and upper are made of quality leather as you would expect).
The Sergio Rossi high heel with gold leather butterfly is called Filigree, and we can expect that celebrities and social butterflies alike snapped it up.
