Trim those toe nails and tidy those feet as up ahead is transparent footwear. For spring 2013 there seems to be a general consensus amongst designers for clear shoes.
It is off course always interesting to see how one trend is executed to suit varying concepts and aesthetics. At Reed Krakoff transparency was achieved through a mesh like upper. Valentino’s designers created perhaps the modern day of Cinderella’s glass slipper. Sarah Burton’s skater like heel was clear with gold honeycomb like content. At Michael Kors and Givenchy there was clear plastic.
Any reason is a good reason to get a pedicure in my book and given this trend, I crown next season the summer of the pedicure. Alternatively, you can always wear with socks.
