Cinderella's Revenge
Fiona Gall collaborated with Terry De Havilland, Rock’n’ Roll haute couture shoe designer on this majestic piece entitled “Cinderella’s Revenge”, created as an altar to the love of his shoes.
Terry De Havilland is the ultimate British Rock & Roll shoe designer. His haute couture shoes are lusted after; they are desired. They adorn the feet of beautiful women, the world over like Kate Moss, Lady Ga Ga, Sienna Millar and Selma Hayek.
Suspended beneath the ‘crown’ the spot lit shoes hang surrounded by a curtain of tubular glass, metallic chain, Swarovski crystal, and other carefully crafted details. Miniature magnifying glasses add an Alice-in-Wonderland playfulness allowing viewers to take a closer look, and admire the craftsmanship and detail of the shoes, and the signature metalwork.
Cinderella’s Revenge soars to the heavens with an 8-ft drop, and fibre optic illumination, her tubular glass fringes cause light to subtly fade across the floor amidst a trail of luxuriously covered metallic snakeskin heels.
