CONCEPTUAL FASHION : ORTHO-EROTIC
When Fashion mixes orthopedics and whore style it becomes conceptual...
There are times in fashion when ugliness is " de rigueur". This summer, Fendi and Chanel lead the way thanks to their common Creative Director : Karl Lagerfeld.
Unfortunately, whenever I see these shoes featured in my magazines , invariably the orthopedic sandals my mother -in law wear come to my mind... So one can imagine my confusion when I associate these with erotica!
That is fashion. Fashion is here to mark the minds and to stretch the lines between what is beautiful and what is ugly ... However, considering what Coco Chanel once said: a woman should be two things: classy and fabulous, I wonder to what category these shoes above do belong.
Not the one to follow fashion blindly anyway, I nevertheless think that fashionistas will plebiscite the model to prefer to it the bi-colour pumps by Mr Lagerfeld for the 2004 collections: this is a creation in the true Chanel spirit... A Keeper.
