who says that luxury is dead?

http://www.bagsnob.com/2009/02/who_says_luxury_is_dead_miu_mi.htm

Although this article is not about shoes, it is still about the fashion luxury industry and its place in the recession the world is feeling. This Miu Miu bag was sold out on Net-a-Porter.com within hours. The python skin handbag costs 1909, at a hefty price like that it seems fashionistas around the globe are still willing to pay the price for luxury items. Chloe also recently sold out a snake skin purse at the price of ₤1664 on Net-a-Porter.














After some searches on Net-a-Porter.com, I found that the most expensive pair of shoes that the site offers is a pair of Thomas Wylde leather boots (₤1705). I know that many women are willing to splurge on a good pair of leather boots because they are a fashion item that will never go out of style. Most of the time, the more you wear them the better they look. The top 5 most expensive shoes on the sites all belong to boots, then a pair of crystal studded sandals from French fashion house Balmain (₤975), and a pair of pyothon sandals from beloved footwear designer Christian Louboutin (₤974).
