Did you notice the shoes featured in the Louis Vuitton Spring ’09 Ready-To-Wear Runway Show? Each platform sandal was a mixture of various printed fabrics and adorned with various things from beads to feathers. Good luck finding them in stock somewhere, and if you do, the price tag may be upwards to $4,000 as some of the sandals featured on LouisVuitton.com are!

For a similar (a definitely less expensive) style, check out these Katrin Leather Exotic Sandals (shown left)  from Bebe.com, $149.

Tribal rope laces up the front, trimmed with feathers and beads. Stacked heel and platform. Cushioned insole. Metallic sole. Heel height: 5.5″ with a .75″ platform.
