Calling all you fashion plates with a bit of Lady Gaga in you! Like something snatched from a Rococo palace or a Matthew Barney exhibit, these look like an infinite amount of things besides a shoe – an hors d’oeuvres tray, centerpiece, antique sculpture, grandma’s vase, fairy’s wardrobe. While the sole is as ornate as can be, the rest of the shoe is actually pretty basic. Your problem won’t be what to wear them with, but how often (no one can argue they’re unremarkable!). Revel in the delightfully dreamy heel, a piece of art that won’t only wow, but also perplex. Standing on something surreal and light as air, these Alexander McQueens will have you looking like the priceless piece of art you truly are – a perfect spring piece. On Net-a-Porter for $3,495.
Pair with: A fantastical patchwork-print dress in a sharp button-front style by Erdem is the simultaneous out-of-this-world and easy-to-wear piece you need. At Barneys New York for $895.
