I'm hoping the whole FN 'footwear star' competition will really help give them some hot trendy designs of their own. Nine West & Steve Madden are always good for lower priced designer 'alternatives', but to see more original and still fashionable shoes in that price range would be really great. Seychelles and Bobbie Blu are two other brands in similar price range who manage to keep it original, I really think that Nine West & SM could really make an impact with more original on-trend affordable designs and less imitative styles.
