Prada Unveils Car-inspired Shoe Collection

Fans of Prada will soon be able to motor down the street in one of around 25 pairs of chrome, wing, and taillight-clad pairs of heels that comprise the company's 2012 spring collection. 

The tricked out stilettos and wedges are meant to pay homage to the classic rides of the 1950s, when ownership of an automobile became just as much about making a statement as it was providing transportation from Point A to B. - Kidult

 Prada's 2012 Spring collection includes high heels and stiletto heels whose designs were inspired by classic cars of the roaring fifties when the automobile changed the face of American culture. The heels are decorated with automotive parts including spoilers, wings, taillights, chrome accents, and flames that are indicative of a hot rod at heart.
