Designer's Teletubbies-inspired boots leave fans divided

A British fashion designer has created a £2,089 pair of boots in the forms of a Teletubby. And most shoppers it turns out are a big fan of the lime-green footwear.

Christian Cowan's latest range has paid tribute to Dipsy - the character from the hit 1990s children's show. The other Teletubbies also feature as muses in a fashion shoot with stunning models.

The high heel boots come in a neon green plush fabric and are part of a range aimed at fans of the original show, who are now parents themselves, reports BristolLive. Cowan, who is renowned for his exuberant and whimsical designs, was inspired in creating the new collection to merge the Teletubbies with iconic, playful fashion campaigns that graced billboards and magazine pages in the early nineties.
