Junko Shimada Spring Summer 2010 Collection

There are two types of shows: the ones that are just classic runways and the ones that are staged, to the point that the girls transport you to another universe.This is what happened one season ago with Junko Shimada Fall Winter 2009 Collection. The “mise en scene” pieces were very poetic, even romantic. This season, the Shimada Spring Summer 2010 ‘girl’ took us on a gamut leaping romp through “Angels and Dust“; a universe with big square televisions on the floor and where rainbows aren’t farther away than a woman’s essence. She is a Sensual Rebellious Pocahontas from another planet.
She walks fast, stops, poses in the middle of the runway. Her angelic nature keeps her floating on cloud nine (figuratively and literally). If you were to stare at her face to face, you would see her feet are definitely not on the ground, thanks to the black pantent plexiglass sole pump.
She wears see through dresses, with fringe, tan natural suede mixed with embroidery and beading. She loves precious metals, gold leather leggings, gold mini skirt, gold sleeve pieces, rounded necklaces. In closing the show, she appeared in a succession of black, anise and turquoise printed silk hooded dresses.

Why do designer’s always make shoes that look like they’d hurt your ankles if you wore them for more than 10 minutes? Also, they’d get really scratched up badly after a short while (plexiglas?!). I mean, yeah they’re cute but I’d only wear them on carpeted floors.
Hate the whole collection (not a friend of the prints) except for the silk hoodie dresses. That’s so pretty but my big boobs would probably pop out of them so I can’t rock that unless I REALLY want to make a statement lol!
