“#Givenchy shoes trashed for looking like Scooby-Doo’s paws<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Would you wear these silly sandals .\u2009.\u2009. for a Scooby snack?<\/p>\n

Designer Matthew Williams has released his first collection as the creative director of the French fashion house Givenchy, and the standout style is his \u201cTryp-toe\u201d shoe, heels that separate the toes into three groups split apart by thin loops. The sandals are paired with everything from draped tanks and trousers to strong suiting, but the way they\u2019re styled is what\u2019s raising eyebrows: Models are rocking them with matte tights in a well, doo-colored brown.<\/p>\n

The look evokes a cartoonish vibe that Twitter<\/a> wasn\u2019t going to let slide. Culture vultures online are decrying the haute hoof as a dupe of Scooby-Doo\u2019s paws.<\/span><\/p>\n

The canine comparison was first flagged on Twitter<\/a> by fashion writer Hannah Tindle, who posted a side-by-side shot of the sandal from Givenchy\u2019s lookbook and a picture of Scooby\u2019s haunches, and cartoonist Cathy Nolan says it\u2019s pretty on point.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I teach my students how to draw paws, we basically start with an oval that we divide into thirds,\u201d Nolan, a Williamsburg artist and Scooby superfan told The Post. \u201cI think the shoe looks like Scooby-Doo\u2019s paw, definitely.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even Williams\u2019 other color choices for pieces in the collection scream Scooby: punchy purple pants (very Daphne), the brown stockings give the illusion of monochrome fur, and \u201cespecially the orange,\u201d on the sandals and on a slinky scarf top, said Nolan. \u201cThere was a lot of orange in the Scooby-Doo characters like Velma\u2019s outfit and Daphne\u2019s orange hair.\u201d<\/p>\n

But while cartoon fans might immediately recognize those meddling kicks from the long-running TV show where Shaggy, his buds and Scooby pile into the Mystery Machine to go on adventures and crack cases, the split-toe style does have a history in high fashion.<\/p>\n

Maison Marigela\u2019s Tabi style \u2014 cloven Chelsea boot and loafer variations retail for about $1,000 <\/a>\u2014 have been a fashion world staple since 1989.<\/p>\n

Another pricey paw: Alexander McQueen\u2019s Armadillo shoe, a gravity-defying pointed boot favored by Lady Gaga.<\/a> Her now ex-fianc\u00e9 Taylor Kinney spent $295,000 on three pairs<\/a> for her through a Christie\u2019s charity auction in 2015.<\/p>\n

Indeed, McQueen, who was Givenchy\u2019s head designer from 1996 to 2001, designed a three-toed sandal for his 1997 Givenchy fall collection which served as Williams\u2019 inspiration.<\/p>\n

Williams told Vogue UK<\/a> this week of the head-scratching heels, \u201cI\u2019ve always been obsessed and now I get to do mine.\u201d\n <\/div>\n
