Fall-Winter 2010 Shoe Trends Review
| All fashion designers have already presented their collections for Fall – Winter 2010/11. So it is high time to tally up everything we have seen on a catwalk. Below are the most popular and interesting shoe trend for a season to come. |
| Fur boots. Winters are getting colder over the globe recently, so the trend looks quite attractive and practical. Besides, if you wear fur boots by Chanel or Lanvin you will feel not only warmth and comfort but looks of admiration too. |
 |
| Laced-up boots. Laces are getting very popular. Such footwear is very comfy and looks great, but taking it off can be a problem. The best laced-up boots were presented by Fendi, Givenchy and Erdem. |
 |
| Shoes with buckles. It is a surprise to see shoes with buckles on a catwalk. Spring and summer footwear also featured this detail. Now the trend is gaining power and popularity and the slogan for the seasons to come is ‘the more buckles, the better’. Though they might bring the same problem as laces, I personally do not see it as a problem. Instead, the greatest advantage of buckles is that they look extravagant and interesting and provide great support and fixation for the foot. |
 |
| Chunky heels. Although stilettos look glamorous chunky heels are much more comfortable. And plenty of women prefer being safe and comfy rather than sexy and scared of falling down. Besides, nobody says that wearing chunky heels you will not look sexy either. Just try the boots featuring chunky heels by Michael Kors, Versace or Ivatore Ferragamo and you will obviously love them. |
 |
| Unusual combination of colors. Fall is a rather gloomy season, so all you need is to brighten it up. To brighten up our footwear designers have chosen the technique of combining colors. Yellow goes together with brown, red is mixed with pink. More variables are possible. |

New York Fashion Week: First Impressions
| This year New York Fashion Week took place from 5 to 12 September. There were traditionally presented new collections for Spring-Summer. Hardly have we got used to Fall-Winter multiple novelties, when designers offer us a vast range of new designer decisions. Among designers that took part in the show were Carolina Herrera, Marc Jacobs, Diesel, Gottex and many other world known names. |
|
| Well, the most important novelty is transparency. It seems to become a new fashion trend of the following spring and summer. The collection from American brand Michael Kors only proves the tendency. Shoes and sandals presented by Michael Kors in New York have already drawn attention of numerous fashion lovers. There is no denying, they look very attractive in spite of simple design. |
 |
| Models appeared on the stage in white and black sandals, the colors that have always been in fashion. Besides, these colors can be matched with anything. The common detail in Michael Kors sandals is transparent plastic inserts. Thanks to them the sandals seem to hold only on black and white cuffs. The sandals feature a tiny platform and a high heel in metallic color. It is necessary to note that such a heel even adds the air of lightness to the whole image. |
 |
| One more model we would like to present you is a shoe made from an unexpected blend of leather and metal. In Michael Kors collection there were black and beige colors, which proves one more time that natural colors are again the choice of fashion designers. These shoes look both womanly and powerful. They feature a triangle toe and unusual top of a heel. Such a model is supposed to have been designed especially for business women with strong and iron character. Some shoes as well as sandals feature transparent inserts as well. Now it seems to be the first step to a new trend the principle of which is light and transparent design opposing to complex and extravagant models. Let’s see. |
