Walking on Glass

Single girls with rodent issues can complete their 21st century fairytale with glass slippers from Maison Martin Margiela. The limited-edition heels are the latest eccentric accessories—or art pieces—in the Belgium’s portfolio of conversational designs, including a plated brass hospital bracelet.   And with a price tag of $1,277 each—yes, the shoes are sold separately—a fairy godmother, or a wealthy grandmother, may come in handy. Personally, I’m holding out for ruby slippers.
