Beyonc Knowles firm about footwear

5th July 2011

(Cover) - EN Star Style - Beyonc Knowles knows "exactly what she wants" when it comes to her stage shoes.

The American singer is currently promoting her new album 4 and has been jetting around the globe discussing it. She recently performed in Nice, France, and chose a pair by Stuart Weitzman for the occasion. He was thrilled when he heard she wanted his design, as he knew she'd show the footwear off brilliantly.

"She knows exactly what she wants," Stuart told WWD. "And you can count on her outfits not covering her shoes."

The shoes are called Ventipave and are pumps which are covered in Swarovski crystals. They were customised for Beyonc especially, with straps added to ensure they could handle the pace of her high-energy dance routines.

The shoes are due to hit the Stuart Weitzman store in Beverly Hills soon, with Beyonc's pair costing $2,500.

"It's not a [business push]," Stuart added, "but rather a personal sense of satisfaction, knowing she can have any shoe in the world, yet seems to give us the first shot." (C) Cover Media
