According to
WWD's Twitter page, "Grace Coddington whooped with delight at the first sight" of the Afros Marc Jacobs sent down the runway a
t Louis Vuitton's spring 2010 show this afternoon in Paris. You'd think by now people would know not to be late to a
Marc Jacobs show, but no. Guests were still milling about on the runway when the first model walked on; she had to push them aside to do her walk. "This is like ghetto fabulous!"
Grazia exclaimed. Jacobs describes it as “Street clothes, embracing the hippie-cyber, tribal-punk world.” Aside from the Afros, models wore glittery anoraks, fringed shirts, satin corsets, and denim hot pants over lace-up leggings. None of the shoes were high. Rather, cowboy boots with feathers hanging off of them came with kitten heels, and moccasins were set on metal "peg" heels. But the handbags were truly special.

Karl Lagerfeld showed clogs galore in his spring 2010 Chanel show this week. Why, it's the footwear favored by chefs and nurses! Though Karl's clogs came, mostly, with towering chunky wooden heels. Style.com loves them and justifies their feelings thusly:
What was once reserved for surgeons in the O.R. and argumentative vegans has just been elevated to a new level. Is this Crocs crossover? Well, never mind, either way. If it’s good enough for Karl, bring it on.

So don't miss our latest runway slideshows and details galleries from Paris Fashion Week! Highlights include Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's pirate-themed show, complete with parrots on the models' shoulders. Valentino consisted of mostly very-short dresses, while pants were mostly lace and see-through save an interesting leather pair. And Kenzo's show took a turn at look 39, when glitter fell from the ceiling and out walked a slew of girls in brightly colored harem pants.

Alexander McQueen is suing Steve Madden for allegedly copying his Faithful bootie. Filed October 1 in Manhattan District Court, the suit alleges Steve Madden's Seryna bootie is a "studied imitation" of McQueen's Faithful design, which was inspired by a motorcycle jacket. McQueen's lawyers add, "In fact, the only design element of the ‘Faithful Bootie’ that Madden did not deliberately copy is the zipper pull that contains the ‘Alexander McQueen’ trademark.
