Whats the downside of creating the most wanted shoe shape in fashion? Once theyre everywhere you stop wanting to wear them.
, who won Contemporary Designer of the Year at the ELLE Style Awards last week, has spoken about the wedge trainer that she sent down the runway back in 2012 and that spawned a hundred tributes. I dont wear them as often as I [used to] because I see too [many bad copies] in the street. Im not saying mine are the most beautiful shoes, but they have a certain [style], says Marant.
In an interview with WWD, she went on to talk about the easy going aesthetic that has become her signature over the past 20 years. When I am dressing in the morning, I go first toward things that I feel well in and that I can spend the whole day in, she says. I dont want to put on a pair of shoes that break my feet or a jacket I dont feel comfortable in. Sometimes you want to dress up and you are ready to suffer a bit, but in the end, its something you will give away. The most comfortable things are the things you will always wear and that you are never fed up with.
And that is why we cant get enough of her clothes.
