These amazing platforms are from Charles Anastase‘s S/S 2009 show but I guess I’m a little behind the curve because I only just discovered them. While I can’t imagine anyone actually wearing them (how did the models not break their necks strutting down the runway?) I do find them aesthetically pleasing. If only that heel was just a little shorter and I think we would have ourselves a winner.

Jeffrey Campbell “Foxy” Platform Sandals
UPDATE (09/09/2010): If you missed out on the Dany platforms, here’s your second chance to get almost identical knockoffs by Jeffrey Campbell. They come in caramel (shown below), black or cheetah print.

Jessica Simpson “Dany” Platform Sandals
I was SO happy to find these Jessica Simpson “Dany” platform sandals. They are everything the originals are but in a much more digestible form. A slightly lower heel makes them more wearable and a $98 price tag means you don’t have to think twice about bringing these bad-boys home.

This is only the second time we’re featuring Charles Anastase shoes on InTheirCloset, but judging from all the fashion/style blogs posting love letters and odes to the designer, it seems like he’s gotten himself quite a big following of fashionable style bloggers who’d do anything to get their hands on a pair of his crazy platform shoes. The ones you see below are called “Dungeon Boots” and they’re from Anastase’s Fall/Winter 2009 collection. Sorry, I wasn’t able to find a better picture of them, but you can still see these are some badass, sky-high platforms. I’m not sure about the price or where to get them, but they’re probably way too expensive and too hard to get hold of anyway.

Jeffrey Campbell “Lita” Lace-Up Boots
Lucky for us Jeffrey Campbell seems to be an Anastase fan as well. Check out “Lita” from JC’s F/W 2010 collection. Isn’t she pretty? She totally looks like Anastase’s clean-cut little sister. Which I think I prefer actually. The platform on the Anastase boots is bordering on the fetish/stripper shoes side while JC’s version is high, but not obscenely so. Pre-order these in either black or brown. Quickly, because these are destined to sell out in no time.
