MODELIZING: The window at Hermès

YSL, Celine, Hermès

I've decided that I hate this YSL shoe. I hate the shape of it, I hate the heel shape with that weird little bottom, I hate all the textures/colours it comes in. I hate seeing it every where, yet I keep taking photos of it. It's a hate photo, if such a thing exists.

Confession time, I realized while shooting that I haven't shot Celine in at least 6 months, possibly more. It made me kind of sad, but then I saw what was in the window and I couldn't recognize the Celine I once knew and loved. Is Celine still relevant? And if so, what is up with their branding. There are like 12 houses that I can list from these few looks. The shoes remind me of this snail puff toy watch I had when I was 4, it was my favorite thing ever. Seriously, whats going on with Celine?
