I agree that this is an example of what fashion is all about. While the new shoes are obviously inspired by the old ones, it's not just a simple knockoff of the design. One would never mistake the Gucci shoes as being from the 1940s! What I hate is when a vintage design is so well copied that it takes an expert to distinguish between the old and new, as in the examples given by Daniel. It just seems to be so... lazy.

You are right, Milan does need a fashion museum (but I am partial!) Thanks for the news – I hadn’t heard about this museum until now.

I want to say one "half" of the dress was blue and one half was green but can't swear to it, and they sort of wrapped round/overlapped - it just looked really modern and DVF-y.
