I just got a pair of Alexandre Birman python platforms for a fraction of other python shoes. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the price tag for $575! And it’s not just scraps of python thrown on some heels; there are incredible details like braided python and ribbon weaving (so yes, it’s scraps of python put to very creative use!). This just means we’re just getting ripped off by other designers because obviously python shoes should not cost $3,000. Alexandre Birman is the hottest Brazilian import since the thong bikini– I predict he’ll be on the lips and heels of every fashionista on the planet very soon.
The shoes are also very lightweight and ultra comfortable! There is a pair that zips up the top but I got the pair above in gray and white python. TO DIE. If you buy no other shoe this season, invest in a pair of these because come Fall you’ll rock them with gray tights!!! There are several different styles and heel heights, starting at $290 for python wedges. At Neiman Marcus. Email my Neiman Marcus personal shopper Connie Dieb for a pair! or call 972-342-0015
The brown pair below are the same style. I love my gray and white!
OH MY GOD
THESE ARE FABULOUS!
Hot! I love how they’re on trend yet would be wearable for years and years to come.
It’s what I have always thought. A-listers do not only charge for quality and design because you can find those at much lower price points. I bought a pair of python Pedro Garcías for around $400, and they are the most beautiful shoes I have ever seen. The hard thing is to have a judicious eye when you shop, which takes a lot more talent (although maybe a lot less money) than shopping for labels.
I just this pair from NM Connie. Very comfortable and chic.
Yes, Alexandre Birman pieces are hot as they can be! He is the son of one of the top shoe designers in Brazil and he’s surely learned how to do it! I love his shoes!!!
