Lacoste Pushes Shoes

There are some wild shoes coming out for fall -- Nina Ricci's stiletto-less 8-inch stilettos and Rodarte's bondage-y, over-the-shoulder boots among them.

But there's something even more out-there about Lacoste's new limited-edition collection created in collaboration with Zaha Hadid Architects, which will be shipping to swanky boutiques including Colette in Paris and 10 Corso Como in Milan this wek.

The shoes look like alien feet -- only hollowed out. Sounds scary, I know. But I'm totally digging their spacey vibe and pragmatic fit. There's not a lot of wasted material here.

The collaboration began with a digitized interpretation of Lacoste's iconic crocodile logo, which Hadid's research team used as a basis to explore a series of surfaces with repeated patterns.

"The design expression behind the collaboration...allows the evolution of dynamic fluid grids," said Hadid. "When wrapped around the shape of a foot, these expand and contract to negotiate and adapt to the body ergodynamically."

So, basically, these are comfy-cool shoes that will undoubtedly double as a conversation-starter.

Trend #3: Redheads

“I brought Lindsay (Lohan) back to her original roots as a true redhead. This fall/winter, redheads will be more sophisticated, and playful with their beautiful shade, with deep red tones and a few cool, blonde highlights throughout to enhance the red even more.”

Trend #2: Blondes

Trend #2: Blondes

“Blondes will be blonde this fall – think Drew Barrymore’s cool, nearly platinum blonde shade for this inspiration. Client’s can often be concerned with the cost to achieve and keep the perfect shade of blonde, but I find that women cut back in other areas rather than haircolor as it’s one of a consumers’ most prominent and most seen everyday accessory!”
