Banana Heels: Curves are in this Spring

PradaFarewell to stick straight, it’s all about curves. As you may have noticed one of the most-important trends of the season, especially for spring 2008, is the inward-curved heel. We’ve also heard it referenced by other names, like hound’s tooth and banana heel. All name calling aside, this is one of the more interesting heels we’ve seen in a few seasons. It’s inconspicuously trendy, so anyone used to wearing heels and hoping for a little edge can certainly pull this look off. Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and every major fashion mag is highlighting them, and designer labels like Christian Dior and Prada are obviously all over the trend.

Take it one step further, look for the curved heel with a platform too. If you’re still hanging onto your holiday bonus, Christian Dior in Beverly Hills has a pair of pumps with crystal encrusted heels and ivory satin uppers that are truly gorgeous.
