Kanye West Heels on Sale at Famed Parisian Boutique Colette

Kanye West might just be solidifying himself as a bona fide fashion designer, despite the cacophony of criticism the self-aggrandized rapper received for his womenswear collection which debuted in Paris in October. At the time, when asked about West's collection, Vogue's Anna Wintour responded with an icy, "Ask someone else."

West showed a collection of too-tight dresses and (what some dubbed as) Balmain knock-offs. However, One of the more notable items was the shoes models strutted in - black and white stiletto sandals with white sweater paneling and pearl trimmings. West designed with heels with Giuseppe Zanotti. They were later featured in Harper's Bazaar Australia.

Still, the collcetion was dubbed a flop.

Now, the tables seem to have turned. Kanye West secured himself a bit of fashion cred when famed Parisian boutique, Colette, announced Thursday that it will be selling Kanye West's heels for the spring.

On Thursday, Colette (@coletteparis) tweeted: "Giuseppe Zanotti for KW @kanyewest available @coletteparis." The tweet included a photo of the shoes on a shelf at the boutique.

The price tag of the heels is unknown, though fashion blog TheGloss doubts they will be marked with the standard luxury shoe price of $1200. In fact, TheGloss bets the price will fall around the $1800 mark because of "you know, hubris."

What do you think of Kanye West's heels? Would you drop the cash for a pair?
