While we love the quilted leather ‘Sara’ boots from the Off-White x Jimmy Choo collaboration for Spring/Summer 2018, the following plastic bag boots, heels, and pumps remind us of the ugliest shoes of 2018 from Cesare Paciotti. Would you wear these PVC-wrapped shoes?
You can browse the entire collection at Mytheresa, Farfetch, Net-A-Porter, and Jimmy Choo.
1. Red satin ‘Elisabeth’ 100 PVC-wrapped satin knee boots, $1,650 at Mytheresa and Net-A-Porter
Jimmy Choo’s Sandra Choi and Virgil Abloh joined forces this season to celebrate Diana, Princess of Wales’ timeless style. Combining their contrasting creative energies, the pair has created these ‘Elisabeth’ knee boots which debuted on Off-White’s Spring ’18 runway. They have been made in Italy from plush red satin and wrapped in clear PVC to look like glass slippers.
You can also buy them in blush satin covered with ruched black tulle at Jimmy Choo and Net-A-Porter.
2. ‘Anne’ 100 PVC-wrapped floral-print satin pumps, $1,085 at Mytheresa and Net-A-Porter
These pumps have been made in Italy from black satin printed with hothouse florals, then wrapped in clear PVC to resemble glass slippers.
3. ‘Anne’ 100 PVC-wrapped satin pumps, $995 at Net-A-Porter
Virgil Abloh says his hotly anticipated collaboration with Sandra Choi balances the “young exuberance of Off-White and the storied elegance of Jimmy Choo.” Debuted on the Paris runway for Spring ’18, these ‘Anne’ pumps pay tribute to Princess Diana, who was one of the first Choo devotees. They have been made in Italy from light-blue satin and are covered with clear PVC to resemble glass slippers.

5. ‘Claire’ 100 plastic bag pumps in white satin, $1,195 at Jimmy Choo and Mytheresa
Fusing classic silhouettes with contemporary details, these satin pumps are this season’s ultimate statement design. The strappy silhouette is crafted from pearlescent white satin and covered in transparent plastic wrapping for an urban-cool finish.
Damaris Lewis wore the ‘Claire’ pumps to the premiere of ‘BlacKkKlansman’ at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival. She styled them with cycling shorts and an asymmetric crepe blazer ($1,780 at Net-A-Porter) that Naomi Campbell also rocked when closing Off-White’s Spring ’18 show.
