Walter Steiger, spring 2000
Finding these amazing Italian sandals at Loehmann’s was another of those serendipitous shopping moments… I had recently found the Charles Jourdan tote (07.20.2009) in Paris; the bag and sandals came together perfectly. These patent leather sandals use ordinary vinyl tubing in an uncommon way—very clever as the gladiator laces. Another witty fashion moment!
