Alexander McQueen’s Fall 2011 shoe collection mixes the older styles in with the new. The signature heart peep-toe pump is re-made in a beautiful pink velvet and also in a suede-to-patent version. The new laces on the platform boots (at the very bottom of the post) are beautiful featuring metal eyelets (as seen on the runway).
I had to blink a couple times when I first saw the price on the first platform wedge featured below. I haven’t seen a shoe (especially online) priced over $4,000 since Valentino’s sculpted lace pump.
My favorite pieces include the t-strap sandal already seen on Sarah Jessica Parker, the curved platform peep-toe wedge and the beautiful pink suede boot.
As always I will continue to update the list as more styles appear online.

I worship McQueen but these open-toe pumps with the little skulls are offensive. They look only marginally better than what you can buy on Camden Market. On a positive note tho, how gorgeous is the navy suede bootie? Must start lobbying for it as a Christmas present NOW.
