Surrealism may be in the air, thanks to the revival of the house of Schiaparelli, which opens its historic doors on Place Vendôme for the first time in decades this weekend, just ahead of couture week in Paris. But it is experiencing something of a revival on the ground, too. Forget the stiletto, the wedge or the stacked heel: this season’s shoes are supported by dancing figurines, upturned lipstick tubes and even butterfly wings. There is fun to be had blurring the lines between art and fashion. Look down, and you never know what you will see.
就在巴黎高級定製時裝週開幕前,位於旺多姆廣場(Place Vendôme)的夏帕瑞麗時尚屋(Schiaparelli)再次打開尖封的大門,這是時隔幾十年後的第一次,看來時尚界又颳起了超現實主義風,足下鞋履也颳起了這種時尚風。忘掉那些細鞋跟、楔形跟以及層疊鞋跟吧:這個時裝季,飛舞的小塑像、倒轉的口紅管甚至蝴蝶翼變成了鞋後跟。它們模糊了藝術與時尚的界限,顯得別有一番風情。看著鞋後跟,千奇百怪、令人歎爲觀止。
