We didn’t think there was anything better than an eco-friendly pair of shoes.

That was until we heard about Melissa’s and Jean Paul Gaultier’s plastic collaboration. The Brazillian footwear label, best known for its partnership with Vivienne Westwood has announced a new range of footwear with Mr Gaultier, which includes a recyclable 10cm plastic stiletto.

The JEAN PAUL GAULTIER X MELISSA stilleto, which launches in June comes in black, beige, lime and tangerine and will cost £160.

Celebrity favourite Beyond skin launches new range of ethical shoes

By Andrea Petrou on January 15th, 2010

Beyond skin.jpgDo you want celebrity shoes at an ethical price? If the answers yes then you’ll love this new range by Beyond Skin.

The brand, which has been favoured by celebs such as Cheryl Cole and Natalie Portman, has just launched a new collection, which will be sold at the newly opened Anthropologie store in London’s Regent Street.

The new collection of ballet pumps are made from vintage fabric, sourced from the charity Traid Remade, they may be tad expensive at £68 a pair but with only around 10 versions of each design made, we think it’s definitely worth it.

And ladies who like their shoes with a bit of height are also in luck. The company will be launching a range of evening styles and a range made from recycled bottle tops in March.

We’ll see you at the tills.
