So NYC Fashion Week is coming to an end. All & all I was a bit unimpressed by most of the Spring 2012 collections, loving only a handful of them. Now I could talk about what I loved until the cows come home...the chiffon, the pastels, the beautiful silhouettes, etc. It's not what I loved that I feel the need to discuss, but the immergence of a potential trend that both horrifies and puzzles me...
Oh holy hell. Socks with heels! Marc, what were you thinking?
Feeling nauseous...
Anna Sui's gone & done it too! The socks are multiplying! And the grand finale of socks...
Um Betsey? I'm pretty sure this a Halloween costume. Where's she going to put her candy? Ah maybe THAT'S what the socks are for...
In all seriousness, I don't think anyone with half a brain, or an ounce of style would attempt this sickening "sock" look. But just in case, I must insist that all ladies out there leave their socks where they belong: hidden under pants! Only school girls in saddles shoes and old men in sandals are allowed to show them off.
This has been a public service announcement.
