SPRING 2010

I've been making my way through Style.com for what seems the millionth time, pouring over the recent collections. It's been hard to pick out my favorites, for there are many, but I have decided to post the ones that I deem most so. There are quite a few, so I plan on posting a few each day, but an endless array of inspiration is sure to follow.

ALEXANDER McQUEEN

Alexander McQueen always amazes-- fashion heavy-hitter and forward-thinker. As always, his Spring 2010 collection was show-stopping. Everything from the ornamented clothing, to the sky-scraper hair, and of course, the shoes. Ah, the shoes. Have you ever seen such things? They cannot even be described, for they are so unique, so sculptural. I for one find them beautiful, mainly from the artistic, constructional point of view. Some seem as if they are welded together, some look like melted wax or plastic, and others seem as if they have been carved by marble. Absolutely fabulous. I don't believe there is any other way to describe them. I believe they have impacted the fashion industry in a very blatant way, and I hope to experience more of this style in mainstream fashion. But, as was put by an onlooker while writing this post, "How the heck are you supposed to walk in those things?"

Ah, but I believe we all would agree, with shoes such as these, such an ability is a technicality.
