Greek born, London based,

Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design educated-

all background details of designer Mary Katrantzou,

who has electrified the fashion stage with

her innovative prints, striking colour choices and

informed inspiration from works of art, photography and

architectural form.

…


Ms. Katrantzou’s recent project is an exciting collaboration

with mega sportswear giant, German multinational- Adidas.

Set for a long-term partnership, the inaugural

capsule collection, Adidas Originals by Mary Katrantzou,

will feature footwear and apparel in signature Katrantzou style:

massive colour impact, inventive print and pattern motif

for full-on graphic contact.  Score!

 

…

Having had the pleasure of hearing Ms. Katrantzou speak on several occasions,

it is evident that she has a high-octane level of enthusiasm,

charisma and energy which translates effectively and beautifully into her work.

On joining forces with Adidas, she states:

“I’m really excited to be working with Adidas on a line of apparel and footwear, I grew up, like so many other kids around the world, wearing Adidas sneakers and I’m really excited about bringing my vision to such a global brand.”

Out, out damn pain ! : the comfort of flat shoe-wear

08 Tuesday Oct 2013

ankle boots, brogues, flats, Little Women, Louise May Alcott, over-the-knee length boots, pointed toe flats, shoes, trainers

From head to toe

and body bits  in-between,

women have suffered for the love of fashion.

…

From factual hospital records

to fictional works of literature,

episodes of  ‘following-fashion-induced’ pain

have been well recorded.

…

Consider this passage from the novel Little Women:

“Meg’s high-heeled slippers were tight and hurt her,

though she would not own it,

and Jo’s nineteen hairpins all seemed stuck straight into her head

which was not exactly comfortable,

but dear me, 

let us be elegant or die.”

 Little Women , (chapter 3)

by Louise May Alcott,  written 1868-9

…

The body parts most sorely abused are

our long suffering feet.

So brutal their daily punishment, that at times

neither gentle foot massage nor warm foot bath

can sufficiently ease the pain.

…

Yet, fashion can be forgiving and has heeded the plea.

Strike the refrain – “Oh my aching feet!”

from your frequented list of complaints.

Well,  at least for this fashion season –

Flats  are  where  is  at!
