Walter Steiger’s signature curved heel ‘Oscar’ ankle boots have been worn by the likes of Victoria Beckham, Anna Dello Russo and Linsday Lohan.
Due to celebrities making this these heels so popular that they instantly sold-out, Topshop have created their own version.
Their ‘Pisa’ banana- heeled platforms have the same curved heels, the same suede fabric and the same elasticated side panel.
The Walter Steiger boots would’ve set you back $950, but the Topshop version are available from Topshop US for $245 and Topshop International for £120.
These heels shoes are such a simple design, but it’s the heel which that makes them stand out.

those have to be one of the ugliest shoes ever designed.
+1
+ 2, I prefer Topshop’s anyway, less tacky.
Is it technically a continuation of Mc Queens Armadillo..?
Did he start that whole shape trend..?
I actually prefer the TopShop version. The Steiger’s are so stylized I coud never see myself wearing them out of the store.
I would prefer the TopShop boots to be honest, the curved heel is just too alien like for my taste.
A brilliant cheat. Love them, well done!
Anna Della Russo is my idea of a fashion victim.
LOL, I do not her style at all.
+++1 – this is one of her worst looks.
EXACTLY!
oh how i love those bowed heels
I kind of like the Topshop version, but the heel is too high for me to actually wear.
I wonder if Anna Della Russo’s skirt could be any shorter? (LOL). She grosses me out – especially after the way she treated our FC at the runway show.
LOL…thanks for that
how does LiLo afford them??
Does ADR have scoliosis or something? Every time I see a picture of her, her posture is atrocious! Also it’s kind of weird to see a grown woman that skinny…
Totally!
These Walter’s shoes are incredible.
I would buy the Topshop boots over the Walter Steiger boots anytime and any day. Not only because they are less expensive and readily available, but because the style of heels is much less severe looking than the WS boots. Definitely this TS design a more practical design for every”wear”.
