Cesare Paciotti Lace Sole Print Shoes

These shoes were not made for walking–unless you own a second pair. Cesare Paciotti is introducing a gorgeous new sole design featuring a black lace print that’s been trademarked by the company. The Italian footwear designer chose lace because it represents femininity and sexiness, which are the cornerstones of the brand’s style. The updated soles, which scream Sophia Loren, can already be seen in the fall collection available in stores now, but a newer version for spring 2011 in blush as opposed to the typical red will be unveiled this month. The lace print as well as the signature gold dagger will be permanent sole fixtures for now, but colors may change with seasons and styles. While it may not necessarily draw legions of Louboutin fans away from their red soles, I do see a new generation of women seeking a change to adopt this new look.
