Default Re: Gisele Versace Spring 2008 Ad Campaign: Versace or Louboutins?

I'm in agreement here, too. I don't think the red sole should necessarily have been Louboutin's sole (no pun intended) property in the first place, but since no one else picked up on it for quite some time, it's now become synonymous with Louboutins.

For another designer (especially a high-end one like Versace) to take up the red sole call seems slightly tacky. Like style poaching. Like a company other than Hermes making a bag that looks like the Birkin or the Kelly.
