Shoes for the season: Pierre Hardy

When it comes to shoes, sometimes one needs not say too much. As lo

ng as there are pictures to look at, they’ll speak a thousand words. Suffice to say that Pierre Hardy’s women’s collection for autumn / winter 2011 traverses several styles, starting out in bold blocks of colour, morphing into unique shapes, stepping gently through ladylike mid-heels before landing with a thud into chunky wedge territory. The one thread that holds it all together – bar for where heavy wedged boots enter the mix – is an underlying hint of retro glamour.
