The Frankenstein of Shoes?

Recently in an interview Manolo Blahnik, the shoe guru, said what he thinks about platform shoes. He called them the Frankenstein of shoes! Maybe because of their rugged-y appearance. And although platforms will never be a match for a pair of beautiful Manolo stilettos, I beg to disagree with my beloved Manolo on that "Frankenstein" statement. These very fashionable platforms below showed that they can be elegant even classy. The new designs come in luscious material such as leather and satin, and are every bit as fabulous as the iconic Manolos.
