A shoe begins as a large orb of plastic and takes a only a minute to produce.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPo9u3JRGb8SLUQVTKSlZcUp217r4GVavR6HWFPSudFzKJLajJqBn18h1GzhR3UKH52JelgkkyWdXTykSGKxereKbgXsny6Y4hRic418pW2hiXgWXq5_YA8NXTiBU63fYgoyVBOAh1gA7U/s1600-h/Picture+29.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234212938450420306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPo9u3JRGb8SLUQVTKSlZcUp217r4GVavR6HWFPSudFzKJLajJqBn18h1GzhR3UKH52JelgkkyWdXTykSGKxereKbgXsny6Y4hRic418pW2hiXgWXq5_YA8NXTiBU63fYgoyVBOAh1gA7U/s400/Picture+29.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 533px; height: 349px;" /></a><br /><br />Plastic shoes? Yes, but these are far more chic, varied and even come in a 'flocked' or 'velvet' versions. Collaborations with some of today's hippest designers yield everything from "couture" plastic shoes adorned with crystals by J. Maskrey to super sexy high heels by the Campana Brothers and Alexandre Herchovitch you'd find hard to believe are plastic.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjtbFgAxAqgOsEaGGeIytD4J9WczVwIdIIGrymWk7IpS5SszsAz0fyh1bH0de6tkxLmQKOIleyooH-IMdmSCrIsLBrTRKvPXMbHYvzoNELNq5bZXQhjHr8EHxTgT9y7Xz-Cq_3Q3Yp3qv3/s1600-h/Picture+46.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5234168120257474562" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjtbFgAxAqgOsEaGGeIytD4J9WczVwIdIIGrymWk7IpS5SszsAz0fyh1bH0de6tkxLmQKOIleyooH-IMdmSCrIsLBrTRKvPXMbHYvzoNELNq5bZXQhjHr8EHxTgT9y7Xz-Cq_3Q3Yp3qv3/s400/Picture+46.png" style="cursor: pointer;
