The Manolo Blahnik Spring 2010 Collection is Not for Pointless Girls
Marissa Liu — October 20, 2009 — Fashion
The Manolo Blahnik Spring 2010 Collection was recently unveiled and during the fete the epitomical shoe designer declared, “I hate celebrities, all those pointless girls - I won’t name names, but you know who I mean. They are ‘famous.’ Ridiculous.”
So whose feet does he want to see wearing the Manolo Blahnik Spring 2010 Collection? “I like women with style: actresses like Uma Thurman.” This, however does not extend to Sex and the City (they may adore him but he’s not a fan). For spring 2010, the colorful and high stilettos (and one flat sandal) are expressive and elegant, as always.
