Bloggers, it’s called “research”
While I loved Christian Siriano’s latest Payless collection, the reviews online have been mixed. A major criticism from the likes of Refinery29 and Fashionista? They’re McQueen knock-offs. Perhaps it’s the law student in me, but I take such accusations seriously and am quite perturbed when they’re made without merit.
Alexander McQueen’s alien/hoof/claw shoes hit the runway on October 6, 2009 - Siriano’s claw shoes debuted on September 12. Hmm, quite a feat to knock-off shoes weeks before they hit the runway!
