The Other Reason to Drool Over the VS Fashion Show: Nicholas Kirkwood's Shoes

Most people who watch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show are not looking at the models' feet.

Most people who watch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show are not looking at the models' feet. But if they did, they would see some pretty fancy footwork — and we're not referring to dance moves.

Case in point: this year's show, which filmed Wednesday in New York, featured dozens of gorgeous shoes made specifically for the occasion by Nicholas Kirkwood. With details like gold embroidery (on the over-the-knee boots Adriana Lima wore to open the show) or suede leaves attached to vine-like ankle straps (on the heels Karlie Kloss wore for the final segment), each style was made to coordinate with one of the show's six themes — Circus, Dangerous Liaisons, Silver Screen, Calendar Girls, Toy Pink, and Angels in Bloom — and each provided a welcome dose of wearability to the show's otherwise outrageous costumes.

Sadly, most of these beauties will never be available in stores, but you can get an up-close peek at them right here.

The ESPY Awards may be all about sports, but Jessica Biel's white full-skirt Christian Dior dress and neon colorblock Nicholas Kirkwood ankle-strap pumps injected major femininity to the masculine red carpet.
