Ann Demeulemeester S/S '09Learning to tie your shoelaces. That's a big moment, akin only to learning to whistle, or wink - take it for granted now, but remember when it was the hardest thing in the world - and you needed that rhyme to learn how. I can't remember how it goes - over and under...
I am having a moment with lace up shoes, triggered by these clever Ann Demeulemeester ones. I'm also quite partial to these Acne ones. Part of me finds them quite ugly - awkward; but another finds them hot, reminiscent of corsetry lacing. Although I'm not into corsets. Or lacing.
