Elephant Crap Stilettos Coming This Way...
By Jocelyn Gan
I get really annoyed when I'm minding my own business, walking down the street, and I feel my shoe step in something soft and moist, while a faint, putrid smells reaches my nose. All these encounters with animal crap are very unwelcome. Its one thing to step in poop. Its a whole other thing to want to wear it!
I've seen some pretty crazy stilettos designs (RIP the genius that is Alexander McQueen), but INSA Heels have surpassed my wildest imaginations! Called the INSA Elephant Dung Heels. these craptastic heels reach the crazy height of 10 inches. I can deal with how tall these shoes are, but I'm finding it hard to swallow the use of poop integrated in them.
London designer INSA created the heels as a response to artist Chris Ofili's controversial painting titled 'The Holy Virgin Mary' in which he used droppings of elephant dung as material. INSA used the same poop from the same family of elephants Ofili used in his infamous nineties painting. Wow! That's probably the most intense way to pay tribute to someone!
