Working in a clothing store, I often give the advice to “wear a statement shoe”. In 2005, young British designer Nicholas Kirkwood brought a whole new meaning to the statement shoe. He arrived on the fashion scene with obscure looking heels with backward platforms but it somehow worked. Since then, magazine editors and celebs can’t get enough of them.

Along with his own collection, Kirkwood is also collaborating with new-comer Prabal Gurung on a line of shoes. Let’s just say he won’t be going anywhere for a while.
