spectacle spectacular
The Marie Antoinette Christian Louboutin. This arguably escapes economic grounding more than a minimalist garment attempting to escape the frilly world of fashion. In 2009 there were on 36 pairs made and sold in London for £3,975. Consumption is virtually out of the question. What happens, therefore, when the spectacle is completely removed from the act of buying? In reference to my previous post: is there even a point in examining these critically or are they just an object of (arguably) beautiful splendor?

those shoes make me blush. let's throw a spectacular, charge entrance fee, and use the revenue to buy a pair. one shoe in each size?
