It's never long after a trend comes along that designers who didn't get there first start chopping the crap out of it. In my experience, this rarely trumps the original and that pretty much sums up my feelings on Stuart Weitzman's Patent Cutout Booties.
He appears to have taken the classic brogue/oxford boot and given it a bit of sass and originality by firstly making it patent and then making odd cutouts. I'm afraid it really falls down in the style stakes for me. Mixing genres like this basically Victorian inspired shoe with modern twists is a tricky business. I think Stuart should go back to the drawing board.
