An extraordinary, authentic standout from the Tom Ford for Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Archive (Circa 2000–2004). These heels, featuring an intricate multi-strap design in a rare violet and black leather with high-impact "Flame Red" insoles, are a definitive collector's piece of Y2K fashion history. THE DESIGN Silhouette: Intricate, sculptural multi-strap construction with a functional wrap-around ankle tie. Colorway: Moody Deep Violet and Black leather straps contrasted against signature red leather insoles and a leather-wrapped stiletto. Craftsmanship: Hand-finished in Italy. The leather has a subtle iridescent sheen characteristic of Ford’s avant-garde textile choices for the house. Heel: Sleek, balanced stiletto that perfectly embodies the early 2000s YSL aesthetic. SPECIFICATIONS Size: IT 39 (Approx. US 8.5–9) Heel Height: 3.25" (Approx.) Era: Archival Tom Ford era (Early 2000s) Origin: Made in Italy (Confirmed by original sole stamp) CONDITION Good Archival Condition. These shoes have been beautifully preserved. Exterior: The leather structure and straps are sound and secure. Note on Condition: There is visible surface wear and minor cracking to the red leather finish on the very tips of the ankle ties (see macro photo). This is a cosmetic vintage detail common with vibrant pigments of this era and does not affect the structural integrity or wearability of the heels.
