Manolo says, Here is more evidence for the Manolo’s proposition that we have reached the end of the fashion cycle, and that the designers have begun to grope for something different. The shoes of the Junko Shimada have previously always had the strongly traditional shape and line, even if they have been colorful and girlish and sometimes kawaii. That the Junko would send these down the runway in the prêt-à -porter collection says much about the current state of the high fashion shoes.
Manolo says, one of the Manolo’s internet friends has responded to the Manolo’s post about the platforms. The shoes above are just for drama…. aren’t they??? I mean, they can’t be for real. Of course they are for the real. The Manolo reminds you of the towering Balenciaga fetish-esque ankle boots, which were made famous by the Olsen urchin. Yes, at the first, when they appeared on the runway, they seemed ridiculous, but they were worn by the celebrities, and now some of the fashion bloggers are reconsidering them. For the Manolo, however, these Balenciaga boots were yet more evidence…
Manolo says, one of the Manolo’s internet friends has asked the Manolo the question. Hey Manolo, Just want to preface that I absolutely love your fashion blog (but I bet you hear that all the time)! But anyway, as I was perusing the latest issue of Vogue, I ran into a little article about how platforms are coming to an end ( A New Altitude p352). Is this true? Will my 5′ 3/4″ frame never again surpass the average height for women? What are you thoughts? Carmel Fresh from the internets this very morning, the Manolo gives you the John…
Manolo says, for the Manolo nothing gets him through the middle of the cold winter week better than the pictures of the beautiful shoes, and few are more beautiful than this classic metallic peep-toe platform pump from the Christian Louboutin.
Manolo says, what better way to heat up the bitterly cold winter Monday than with the hot platform sandal from the Givenchy?
Manolo asks, how high must the platform shoes be before the pants actually fit?
Manolo says, here is the beautiful pair of the round-toed platform pumps from the Claudia Ciuti. It is somewhat formal, the sort of the shoe that could move gracefully from the day to the evening.
Manolo says, the Manolo’s always amusing friend, the Miss Meghan, she is urging the women of the New York to proudly wear the platform shoes Ladies, listen up. It’s a new season, there is a bit of a nip in the air, and the stores are full of a delicious shoe – the platform.They are sexier, higher and more fun than ever before. But “Oh!” you gasp, “they are too high, too wobbly, too … stripper.” Get over it, and get into it. Platforms are here to stay, and if you are an intelligent woman, which I know you are,…
Manolo says, clearly the peoples who say you cannot dance in the shoes of the high heels have never heard of the Samba! It isn’t surprising that shoes are an obsession with the beauties who grace Brazil’s Carnival parades — they’re generally the biggest things they wear below the neck. Dancers at Carnival, the pre-Lenten bash that starts this weekend and ends on Ash Wednesday, say the higher the better for their towering heels, worn with soaring feathered head-dresses and little else but glittery patches, strategically placed. Patches of strategic placement and Samba! Dancers say the platform sandals, preferably with…
Manolo says, continuing the topic of the dangerous shoes, here is the picture of the famous shoes of the Vivienne Westwood that the Naomi Campbell toppled from in the 1993. As the piece of the trivia, those shoes, they were laced onto the feet of the Naomi Campbell by the Holly Dunlap, of the Hollywould. (See the entry for the July 11, 2004)
Manolo says, the nasty wee little man that is the Kim Jong-Il, he wears the platform shoes! Kim Jong-il has grown in stature, thanks to a pair of platform shoes that increased the Dear Leader’s height by about five inches, a leading South Korean daily reported Wednesday. The Dong-a Ilbo published a recently obtained photograph of a smiling Kim that shows him wearing a pair of platform shoes with heels about 4-5 inches high. Kim’s actual height is a tightly guarded secret and Pyongyang seldom releases photographs that show his shoes. Kim is estimated to stand between five and five…
