Shoe God Manolo Blahnik is releasing his Spring/Summer 2010 collection, which is sexy and coveted as always. According to Vogue, the designer was inspired by the Audrey Hepburn flats, some of the stilettos worn by old Hollywood glamour,  adornments of Spanish architecture, and one style is even based on Einstein’s tongue, if you can believe it?

“My favourite style is the Gloton in polkadot,” Blahnik told VOGUE.COM. “This is a great summer shoe, which I have always loved, and variations of it have always featured in my collections. I recall a shop in New York, which sold beautiful wrapping papers with colourful polka dots. The shape of this court shoe is very classic, but at the same time versatile. You can wear it to work as well as for a night out and I like the primary colours on it, they are bright and punchy. It brings a smile to my face when I look at it and I hope it will do the same to women when they put the shoe on.”

“That’s why I like this shoe – it’s a very happy shoe; a perfect shoe for the slightly gloomy current climate,” he added. “I promise that if you put that shoe on you will feel fabulous. You need to treat yourself to something amazing from time to time.”
