Vivienne Westwood’s style shook up British fashion industry in 1970 when the designer presented her first work. From that time on she remains one of the most significant and influential designers in England. Her style is eccentric, contradictory, recognizable and positive.

The models presented in the collection are made of natural 100% recyclable materials. The distinctive feature of these shoes is decorative wings that add original look to the design. The sandals have almost a horizontal platform which is cut at the heel part. Due to this cut the platform seems unsteady but it is only a visual illusion. The ankle strap is wide and comfortable. Instead of a standard buckle or button the author trimmed the sandal with a light and airy wing of the same color as a shoe is.

Like in the previous collections designed by Vivienne Westwood for Melissa, in this one all the shoes are made of Meflex plastic. The secret of this plastic is in a special formula which increases flexibility, leak tightness and water resistance. A limited series of wing shoes by Vivienne Westwood will be available in Patricia Field stores as early as January 2010. Their price will be about $190.
