Neiman Marcus Spring 2010 Accessories Preview
- Dresses & Platform Shoe by Rodarte Spring 2010 Collection
- A studded Balmain purse from the Spring 2010 Collection
I could not let it go unnoticed, that is why I decided to share this preview of Spring 2010 Accessories from Neiman Marcus. Current economic struggle, not only in the financial industry but also in retail, has made everybody work extra hard, especially designers who need to put an extra effort and try to create something new, fresh, eye-catching and extraordinary. I agree that most of the designers need to try hard to get in line with extravagant Rodarte, chis & hip Alexander Wang, breathtaking Balmain, newly reestablished YSL & of course, on top of them all is always classic Chanel. Neiman Marcus is one of the high end retail stores who is very picky about who they will display in their stores for the new Spring 2010 season therefore we might want to make a note of these fashion industry leaders.

New Trend for Fall 2009 – Knee Thigh-High Boots
My favorite Rodarte is presenting a new look for a boot with unusual length, it goes over you knee and reaches almost to your mid thigh.
In addition to that, boot has a platform high heel with leather straps wraping your leg all away around, which I imagine is very hard to walk in... but what can you do, trend is a trend & these are mainly designed for the runway anyways! I cant wait to see which stores might get the first orders in & how hard it would be to buy them or see somebody wearing them...

Lets think what can you wear with the boot that is almost covering your leg, I think leggings or a short skirt. These would go perfect with the Musketeer designs from "fierce" collection that Christian Siriano presented for a final cut of Project Runway Cycle 4. His over-the-top flare hats & high color jackets can be a great fit with Rodarte thigh-high boots, what do you think (pictures are below)?

Check out more pictures of the new collection Rodarte Autumn(Fall)/Winter - 2009/2010 Women's Collection on the pages of Fashionising. I also found a couple of pictures on Glamour.com which show preparation of models for Rodarte Fashion Show & how the stage is decorated to match the theme of the collection. Lots of metallic nail polish, slick hair & dull color outfits remind you of a futuristic movie theme but its truly an entertainment to watch these models getting ready for this extravaganza. I am sure just to put one outfit together might take hours, look at how many straps one boot requires to be tied around.
Kate Mulleavy and Laura Mulleavy for Rodarte
Designers are two sisters who came to the fashion capital of the world, New York ,with nothing but a couple of dresses in the spring of 2005. They had such an individual taste attached to their collection that it was impossible to not notice & recognize them among other designers. Rodarte came from their mother's maiden name which presented a sound of the strong opinionated explosive taste of new fresh couture added to our world of fashion! I was blown away with their chiffon dresses & platform thorn stilettos. They won 2008 CFDA Swarovski Emerging Womenswear Designer and 2008 Swiss Textiles Award which were previously given to one of the famous designers like Karl Lagerfeld & Christian Louboutin. Their seasonal collections are MUST@SEE in order to experience an exquisite fashion sense of the new generation.
