boots, pair of woman's, "Mondrian-Look" inspired vinyl boots with low synthetic heel, pointy toe, zip to upper back, lined with covered foam. In the 1960s Yves St Laurent created a plain A-line dress inspired by the paintings of Mondrian. These boots show a similar inspiration with their stark areas of bright predominantly primary colours juxtaposed with white areas and separated by straight black lines.
