Paris Hilton Footwear

What you're saying seems to be true, sadly. I've seen several shoes in the "Yay or Nay?" thread that look noticeably similar to these (no offense towards anyone, just saying).
And have you seen the same people yaying those "similar" shoes and naying the Paris Hilton shoes?
In fact, Alexander McQueen designed some heels for S/S 08 which, aside from the color, are nearly identical to the "Vogue" pump.
And so what? It isn't any novelty that certain shapes are fashion and designers are copying each other. When people are naying the Paris Hilton shoes doesn't necessarily mean they are yaying the Alexander McQueens.
There's nothing to be ashamed of for liking shoes from a certain designer. If you like a shoe, you like it. The person(s) behind the design shouldn't have a say in your opinion.
How can you say that? What is immature in this debate are people caring about other people's reasons for liking or disliking shoes. If you have good experiences with products from a certain designer it is quite natural to look for more of his stuff. Having said that I haven't met anybody in this forum who just admires something because of the brand. Christian Louboutin for example is so popular, but who likes every style he designed? I don't and I doubt if anybody else does.

Finally, I have much more sympathy for Paris Hilton herself than for her shoes. Maybe she isn't a great singer or actress, but she is beautiful and she owns some beautiful shoes - not of her own brand.

i feel like im going to be bombarded with these shoes everywhere in the mall, just like the"jessica simpson collection"

Honestly I don't like any of these Paris Hilton shoes but I have to admit, I have a couple Jessica Simpsons that I love. I was also appalled when I heard she would be releasing a line, but "she" made a few really cute knock offs of shoes that were out of my price range that I have and love (for example, like Chloe-looking wedges).
 
if i was forced to wear any of those i think i'd have to go with the vogue pump.. it's the only that didn't make me want to throw it across the room when i saw it in person
 
i agree, i saw some of the jessica simpson collection at mervyns, i think it was, the other day and a few of them were pretty cute and not too bad to walk in!

Yes I agree, that is the best of the bunch.......but still......you can tell by the photo that the quality is poor.

And another thing I'm getting tired of all these Celebrities playing designer, I mean a few celebs collections are good but most are not I love a quote by Verg Wang:
" True designers are competing against celebutantes and celebrities. The real estate hasn't expanded, or even shrunk, in the stores. There are people who are real designers who are sitting in there cutting and draping fabric, and there is no differentiation. That didn't exist 10 years ago. Ralph and Calvin and Donna weren't competing against Gwen Stefani and Jennifer Lopez, whom we then have to dress. -WWD Collections Fall '08

And I was in such a good mood before I saw these shoes.....
 
the sad part about this is that the vogue pump has quite a trendy shape :shock:
quite a few designers have done that square toe for the coming season and i really do not like it!

the "vogue" is a 1 to 1 gaetano perrone for te casan rip off. it's called the jewelled ballerina pump, fall 2007, i guess.

Most of the shoes look very boring...but the jewelled one is quite nice. As I said before I don´t care who makes it, as long as I like it. I wouldn´t wear them because of the design but I´m sure they going to sell pretty good.
