Shoe Porn: Lady Dragon from Melissa Vivienne Westwood

It may not be the most affordable shoe and it may not be the easiest to wear,  but my goodness this is the shoe I covet right now. This is the Lady Dragon Anglomania Melissa shoe designed by Vivienne Westwood.  It's red, it has a wing, and a sweet heel...these are shoes that are knowingly cool and sexy. But then, that's Vivienne Westwood for you.

Not only a gorgeous pair of shoes, but they are ethical too (one of my most favourite things!). The Lady Dragon is a vegan shoe part-made from recycled old shoes. They are made in factory in Brazil that works to a social and environmentally friendly code of practice, such as recycling waste and water. The are made from plastic so I'm wondering what the comfort levels might be, but they would be perfect wipe-clean suitability for those boozy Christmas parties.

Available in black or red, you can find them at Fashion Conscience for £118.

  1. I have the cherry ones & can confirm they are super comfortable. The rubber/plastic doesn't case blisters & the soles are springy. Plus they'e super pretty & smell like bubblegum - what's not to love?!!

  2. I have some Lady Dragon shoes. To be honest the smell makes me feel quite sick (I did not think I minded it but realised that I felt queasy every time I wore them)

    They are comfortable for their height though and mega gorgeous. I'd quite like the cream and red ones with wings and still regret not buying the cream ones with skull bows for the wedding (maybe there still might be time)

  3. So the smell might have the marmite factor by the sounds of it?

  4. Oh I want these! I haven't got a pair partly because every time I see a new design I want it, it's out of stock ... then I suddenly see the next design and want that! They are all so fantastic.
