Another recycled trend – The Clog

The fastest way to find out what’s going on in the fashion world these days is most certainly online and October’s Paris Fashion Week was no exception. One particular trend that had bloggers frantically expressing their opinion about was the return of the Clog in the Chanel Spring/Summer 2010 Show. Some expressed delight, others dread as the return of the Dutch classic made it’s appearance during the anticipated show.

Not wanting to take any of the spot light away from Karl, however a few stylish celebs and one particular Australian Fashion Label were rocking the Clog as far back as 2008. Fashion forward Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen were photographed wearing theirs early this year and designers Becky Cooper and Bridget Yorston of Bec & Bridge used Clogs in their Sydney Rosemount Fashion Week Summer 08/09 show.

Love or loath, these chunky wooden classics are looking to be huge once again and I’m definitely up for any shoe that will add to my 5ft nothing height.

Bring it on!
