You all know I love John Galliano, right?  That’s no secret.

But neither is the fact that I’m a total Viktor & Rolf devotee.

Fall 2009 isn’t changing that.

The clothing itself was a fairly understated (for this house, that is) collection of tailored and shirred outfits that include an awful lot of pieces I’d very much like to wear.  Some examples, you ask?  OK then.

 

But just by looking at the two pairs of shoes in those first two looks, you can see where this is going right?

It’s going straight into out-and-out drooling over the shoes that were paired with these clothes.  Whimsical blends of the Miu Miu “garden” shoes with knee-high gladiator sandals.

 

Playful uses of various fastenings, both functional and decorative.

 

And some flat-out diva glam 80s-done-right slouchy sequin boots.

Fun.  Fashionable.  Unique.  Just what I expect from this intrepid duo.  Bravo!
