Haider Ackerman Asymmetrical Ankle Boot: Black Math

Haider Ackerman has an eye for romance and a lot of hype surrounding his name, for good reason. Lagerfeld loves him, and it’s easy to see why his dark, draped, and deliciously disjointed clothes appeal to Karl – and to any woman with an appreciation for the asymmetrical. His deliberately twisted and off-kilter fall clothes are full of it, shoes included. This ankle boot says all you need to know about Ackerman, and it’s a great way to add a little asymmetrical interest to the much-needed winter boot.

The crisscross lacing, snaking all the way around the shoe in one fluent motion, with a zipper to keep it company, catches the eye without causing frustrating complications when coordinating your outfit. Blended with well-positioned seams, the equation is complete, and the rounded toe adds another twist while keeping your feet comfortable. The corset-like lace is for looks only, proving it’s practical, and reminding you there is no need to be boring when you’re on the hunt for your seasonal utilitarian boot. At Barneys New York for $1,880.

Pair with: Place a spell of black magic on your accessories and wear these with Bottega Veneta’s lace-effect leather bag, an intricate two-in-one convertible that will get as much mileage as your boots. Bottega Veneta Urban Lace Two-in-One Leather Bag, $4,100.
