Rodarte New York Fashion Week

Disappointingly, the Rodarte show turned out to be a total rehash of last season, and the shoes are, in my opinion, “Past-season YSL doing Louboutin doing Rodarte pretending they can design shoes like Louboutin.” MESS!!!

Seriously, I think that guy (Nicholas Kirkwood, who "designed" the shoes) is indeed talented, but come on – look at how FAT the feet look in those shoes!! They were a phantasmagoria of misplaced straps, awkward hardware and a general ill-conceived mélange of construction completely unflattering to the foot and the woman. Clearly, he allowed those two vipers in kindergarten smocks to bulldoze him into letting them design their own shoes.

People, please stick to doing what you know how to do! Clearly, despite their formidable talents, shoes are not what these two women know how to do. Perhaps they should have worried less about actualizing something that should have been left to others more capable, and refocused their attention on creating a fresh collection worthy of their newfound fame.

Karma is a bitch, and she is NOT wearing Rodarte. Anymore.
Well, at least not this season.
