Jean Paul Gaultier has released his latest line of shoes, which fit well with the opposites trend I've been posting about. The shoes are a nice mix of sport and elegant. They are sophisticated and easy going. With this trendy style you can see that every rule about matching can be broken.
Implications - The combination of high-end haute couture style and edgy athletic apparel is something to look out for this season, with Jean Paul Gaultier's 2007 collection serving as an example of this fashion fad done right. Ultimately, today's self-expressive fashionista is looking for a way to wear all opposing components of their personality on their sleeves like a badge.
