LONDON/FASHION
At The V & A. Manolo Blahnik is Anna Piaggi's favorite shoe designer. His shoes are universally known as 'Manolos' and are synonymous with glamour and sex appeal and have become as famous as the women who wear them. Sarah Jessica Parker in Sex And The City had her priorities clear in one episode she pleaded with a mugger: "You can take my Fendi baguette, you can take my ring and my watch, but don't take my Manolo Blahniks." Madonna once described his shoes as "better than sex" and then added "what's more, they last longer." Anna Piaggi is wearing a Union Flag Top Hat by Stephen Jones a Union Flag cape by Rifat Ozbek, Blue marabou boa and earrings by Christian Dior, shocking pink fingerless gloves by Missoni Uomo, she is holding a child's walking stick by Alexandra Sojfer, Paris and a sequined Union Flag bag by Anteprima.
