Gladiator Sandals Reach High
Tue., Jan. 8, 2008 6:51 PM PST by Sydne Summer
When the Olsen twins stepped out in different knee-high strappy sandals last year, they made quite a few worst dressed lists. Yet, designers like Balenciaga are still insisting the ongoing high gladiator trend is a fashion must.
Balenciaga just came out with the ad above showcasing Jennifer Connelly in a fresh take on the high-heeled shoe that became a celeb favorite a few seasons back. Not everyone, however, can pull of this trend. You need slim calves and a fearless sense of confidence. If you think you've got what it takes but can't afford the real thing, we've found a more subtle—and less expensive—version in light gold for you after the jump. But first, tell us what you think of the trend.
