You Won’t Be Able to Guess the Cost of Christine Centenera’s Shoes

While taking in the shows at Paris Fashion Week, Christine Centenera was snapped wearing the shoes of our dreams—they're so special they literally took our breath away. The shoes are part of Demna Gvasalia's debut collection for Balenciaga, A/W 16, which is when we first spotted them on the runway, however this is the first time we've seen them worn IRL (not that Paris Fashion Week is anything close to real life).
The shoes in question, the Balenciaga Sequin-Embellished Satin Pumps will set you back a cool $4295, and while it may seem like an extraordinary price to pay for a pair of shoes, the fashion girl in us likes to think they're a work of art—an investment piece you can keep on a shelf and admire from afar.
We want to know—would you spend $4295 on a pair of shoes? Do you think they look like $4295 shoes? Sound off in the comments below, and if $4295 is a little out of your price range, we found three pairs of embellished heels you can shop instead. Keep scrolling!
