28 shoes in 18 seconds from Helmut Lang from Racked.com on Vimeo.

Helmut Lang's show notes describe the collection as being inspired by under-the-sea elements and "translucent colored crustaceans." Reworked silk and canvas gave the pieces a shiny, wet look and the palette hovered between neon and pastel in the most iridescent way possible. The shoes, on the other hand, were grounded in sharp geometric shapes, metallics, and pops of bright tomato and ocean blue. Take a peek in the video above, and head after the jump for the collection.
