Designers love to raise eyebrows with quirky items – but these ruffled shoes from Loewe might have gone one step too far.
The footwear, made out of beige deflated balloons, was debuted by the Spanish brand last year as part of its Spring Summer 2023 collection, and resurfaced online after Kaia Gerber modelled the shoes in a photoshoot for i-D.
Victoria Beckham’s official Facebook page shared the picture of Kaia, who was modelling a deconstructed black ruffled dress from Posh’s own line, but the shoes stole the show.
Fashion enthusiasts were taken back by the ruffled balloon shoes, which are the brain child of Jonathan Anderson, Loewe’s British creative director.
However, the fashion accessory didn’t convinced everyone, and many people mocked the model’s sytling, saying the shoes reminded them of loofahs and dusters.

The look was put together by i-D, with Kaia being photographed by Tyler Mitchell and styled by Alastair McKimm for the magazine’s Spring issue.
The Victoria Beckham dress, made of deconstructed ruffles reaching to the floor, was originally presented last September as part of the designer Spring Summer ready-to-wear collection.
Meanwhile, the ruffled shoes from Loewe were much talked about when Anderson debuted them at Paris Fashion Week last October.

The Victoria Beckham Facebook page shared the picture of Kaia, calling her a ‘VBmuse,’ to showcase the dress from the designer’s collection.
However, because the brand did not specify that the shoes were from Loewe, many believed the quirky footwear was a Beckham creation as well.
The flash outfit, and the shoes in particular, were mercilessly mocked online.
One commenter joked: ‘These would be very handy when I’m cleaning my shower tray.’

‘I need those to mop the floors as I walk the catwalk,’ one added.
‘Looks like she’s had a fight with a bear and lost! Think I’ll keep my £3,000 thanks for the giggle though,’ one wrote.
‘Ahh the dragged through a hedge backwards look and stood on two baby hedgehogs – I’m ready to hand over my £4,000 for this beaut,’ another joked,
‘Just about right to wear for mopping the floor with the funky mop shoes though – I’d buy them,’ one said.
And one commented: ‘This screams ‘I just took a detour through a paper shredder on my way to rehab.’
People couldn’t help but poke fun at the shoes and the overall look, with some joking Kaia looked like she had just fought a bear, and comparing the shoes to a loofah
