Fashion is not simply a matter of clothes. Fashion is in the air, born upon the wind. One intuits it. It is in the sky and on the road.

Platforms?


"The platform is the Frankenstein of footwear."



Manolo Blahnik


That's right, the king of shoes says no to platforms shoes.

He talked about them in an interview made by The Guardian.

Here there is an extracked from the interview:

"You ask if a woman can wear my shoes if she is not blessed with fine ankles? All is not lost! There are tricks to draw the eye; a bow at the ankle to divert the gaze and the cut over the toes. The woman I would refuse is the one who asks for platform shoes. If one of the designers I work with is having a platform-heeled moment, I say no, I just can’t. The platform is the Frankenstein of footwear. "


Well, I think he isn't that wrong, what do you think?

Dandy Girl

Yes, Dandy Girl , the new brilliant trend that shows that also girls can wear tuxedos and have that r e t r o style.

We can see this really nice style in the s/s 07 Chanel collection, where the
f a n t a s t i c
designer Karl Lagerfeld put some of this 800'esque style in certain clothes, mixed of course with glamorous 60's details.

From these pics we can also see the sunglasses he devised for this look, that reminds the 1800 (when the Dandy look was really fashionable for mens).


What can we say... fantastic!
