PAUSE Or Skip: Saint Laurent’s SS27 Metallic-Tipped Transparent Footwear

Presented on the Paris runway, the house introduced a transparent ankle boot finished with a metallic cap toe, reimagining the traditional dress shoe through a distinctly surreal lens.

Creative director Anthony Vaccarello has long explored the tension between classic tailoring and subversive glamour, and this latest design felt like a natural extension of that approach.
