Karl & The Clog

In 1952, we saw the invention of the stiletto heel which was first seen on the DIOR runway. That same year, we also saw the first Hermes bag (known as the Grace Kelly bag) being carried around. Now, we are about to witness something extraordinary....the rebirth of The Clog. The last time the clog had any degree of notoriety was in 1965. It was amusing, it was unusual, but it certainly wasn’t chic.

Karl Lagerfield, head designer and creative director for the fabulous fashion house, Chanel, showcased an array of chic clogs at his spring 2010 runway show on October 6, 2009 in Paris. They were sweet, wholesome, and practical. I'd give my right arm for the black studded pair.

Whether you love or loathe this trend, these Dutchy chunky woody heels are making a wild comeback so don’t be too surprised if you start seeing your friends and myself clip-clopping around the city in them.

Even the most fashion forward stars like Mary-Katy and Ashley Olsen have been rocking The Clog as far back as 2008.
