Maybe designers have taken a cue from Gwendolyn Huskens’ 2008 project “Medic Esthetic”. I’m really enjoying these asymmetrical bandage-style boots for Fall. Of course, these are all outrageously expensive but I’ve linked some much cheaper interpretations at the bottom.
Balmain multi-zip suede boots
Christian Louboutin Nitoinimoi Bandage ankle boots
Balmain suede buckle bootie
Rodarte F2009RTW
Some inexpensive options here: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

Ooooh, I’d buy those bandage and buckle boots in a heartbeat!
I love the bandage boots so so much!
I can’t remember if the speaker in this talk mentions them…or if i just think they’re related, but you might like this:
