Lola

I was inspired by the Igor+Andre blog, although I can't compete with the talents of the blogger Danny Roberts.

My Top Ten From Fall 2010

1. Dries Van Noten-elegant, easy, beautiful


2. Celine- the best comeback of a designer and house in years


3. Bottega Veneta- the designer has been consistent in putting out some amazing collections


4. Altuzarra- the newcomer is creating a lot of buzz with his very well received Fall collection


5. Yigael Azrouel- has become one of the designers to see at NY fashion week, and for a good reason


6. Victoria Beckham- the spice girl has proved she lives up to her former stage name with beautifully crafted, quality dresses


7. Lanvin- Elbaz proves yet again that he knows what women want to wear


8. Prada- despite some mixed reviews, the fetish driven Miuccia provided another thought provoking and beautiful collection


9. Marc Jacobs- back to basics proved a breath of fresh air for Marc Jacobs


10. Dolce and Gabbana- another back to basics collection that made audience members shed more than a few tears

I Feel Sorry For the Models...

Who have to wear these Alexander McQueen Shoes-Outrageous!

Comparisons of this other worldly creation have ranged from intricately patterned monster eating your foot to a stapler-esque shoe contraption. You decide.

Personally, I would prefer not to break my ankel running for the subway in the morning. I don't think I'm quite willing take the risk, flats will do.

But if you put these in a nice glass box with some soft lighting and a nice shiny wall plaque I wouldn't mind gazing at them in wonder and puzzlement. Almost like an exhibition from a future with no gravity induced injuries.

*Despite the outrageous shoes, Alexander McQueen was a true original and will be missed in the fashion community
