Nicole Kidman’s costumes in the epic movie Australia look utterly fab and I’m sure are bound to inspire more than a few designers come the runways for Fall 2009. In the meantime, I’m guessing her character’s incredible red Ferragamo shoes will be coveted and copied quicker than you can say ‘throw another shrimp on the barbie, mate”.
Ferragamo's limited edition 'Australia' shoes $950
The velvet and stingray red open toe evening sandals are ‘inspired’ by the glamour of the late 1930’s, which is when the movie is set to take place. I can’t think of a more fun way to update your favorite holiday ‘look’ then with a fun pair of festive shoes- Nicole wears hers with this chinoiserie red dress, but my favorite way to wear red shoes is to let them act as a surprising ‘flash’ of color- perfectly paired with neutrals like winter white, camel and gray or with rich shades of blue and purple.
Daniblack 'Violet' $120 Piperlime.com, Christian Dior 'Cork-Platform Patent Pumps' $670 Neiman Marcus and Christian Louboutin's 'Moustique-Red' $720 Barney's New York are other great options!
