Aldo Balenciaga Copy

Most of us are familiar with the magazine section "Splurge vs. Steal" or "Lust and Must”; I got one right here for the Balenciaga addicts. Aldo has an insane heal that is nostalgic to a sportletto made by Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga in fall 07.

"Helsingborg" is a close relative to last year's Balenciaga:

Minus the funky Lego construction of the Balenciaga stiletto, Aldo made a parallel duplicate for the everyday heel aficionado without the thousand-dollar price tag.

For the cost of the Balenciaga shoe, you can buy ten from Aldo. Good to know they also come in dark brown w/ fuchsia, solid black and cognac shown above.

Monica Pazos,
While the Balenciaga shoes are obviously the best, and even though Aldo attempted to copy the style, I believe that Steve Madden did it best, even though it looks the worst:
