Prada Models Fall

For their Spring/Summer 2009 collections, designers have taken footwear to great new heights (see Five-Inch Heels: A User's Guide or Slideshow: Shoes Steal The Shows), but Tuesday's Prada show in Milan may signal the end of an era as not one, but two models took a tumble on the runway. See video and photos below.

If you're stupid enough to buy into this misogynistic gag, you deserve the tumble. I don't mean the models, who had no choice, I mean the vapid Carrie crowd.

How hard would it be to put non slip rubber on the bottom of those shoes?

AND how hard would it be for the designers to put WEARABLE shoes on the girls?

OR better yet....put the girls on a sliding belt sort of walk way. That way, all they have to do is stand there while the walkway moves them and all they have to do at the end is turn around for the return trip, eh?

Yeah I know, it's been a long day and these ideas just pop into my head.

Real people DO wear these shoes. I've seen them, hobbling along, trying to concentrate on walking while trying to negotiate busy Manhattan Streets and subway stairwells during rush hour (I hate winding-up behind one on a crowded staircase while I'm trying to run for the train.) I have to concede that the shoes look very sexy, in a bound-foot kind of way. I can't wear them 'cause I can't walk in them. I've also seen several, older patients, who after having worn high-heels all of their working lives (they usually started wearing them during the Depression, to look older so that they could get jobs) have severe arthritis in their feet, are confined to their wheelchairs because they can no longer walk due to tremendous pain.

Bad physics. That shoe designer needs some 'form follows function' training.

She should have ripped them off and threw them down, because they are better

for doorstops than shoes.

Looks like Lurch and Lurchette on stilts! Its sad that the real models are too old...Naomi Campbell, Christy Brinkley etc. These modern day anorexics can't stand on their own two feet.

It would have been really funny if she chased the shoe designer attempting to shove those shoes where the sun does not shine.

Maybe Prada need to make a pair for the Pope - make him realize he's human after all... just like the rest of us.

What has the Pope got to do with Prada?

With the outfits he wears, he needs to be on somebody's runway. He's dying for attention.

No support for the feet in those shoes. Dresses look great ... Shoes are hideous. Girls, if anything, look a bit plumper.

First they make these girls be grotesquely thin, then they put them in shoes that are insanely dangerous. No person could walk in those shoes. Why do designers hate women?

Wanna bet that they have a DEAL with the orthopedic surgeons also? I've ALWAYS said that the fashion designers, (the effeminate ones) have a grudge against women!! Just look at some of the STOOPID S#@T they design to make women look bad, just trying to get even for not being a REAL WOMAN!!!
