LD Tuttle AW 2010


Jurassic-era soil, c. 200 million BC. Metropolitan sidewalks, c. 2010 AC.

Few would argue the two have much in common.

But it’s easy to imagine both as stomping grounds for Tiffany Tuttle’s latest collection of shoes with unlined, raw leathers creasing into bone-hard, sculpted heels.

“I was looking at dinosaur fossils,” says the LD Tuttle designer of the inspiration behind her fall 2010 collection.

To prove the ease and grace of her heavily wedged designs, she teamed up with photographer Zen Sekizawa to create a video that shows the shoes “in a state of flux, so they are creating and finishing off the line of the body.”

LD Tuttle is exclusively stocked at 4.
