About marlon austin
Marlon Austin is a designer of fine couture apparel who is venturing into the ladies shoes category with some stunning results. Although there are only a few shoe styles in the Marlon Austin Bespoke Couture line, the ones that are available are beautiful. With models like the snakeskin “Pitone” shoe and the earthy wood “Porto” shoe, Marlon Austin is making shoes that are described by Edgar Revilla as “works of true art and the best of the best.”The following is from the Marlon Austin site and describes a bit of their philosophy:“The terminology Bespoke has recently been thrown around everywhere. It's becoming as common as the word apple pie. We are aware that there are many order takers and cookie cutters in the market. Most will claim they sell Bespoke clothing. How that is so far from the truth.”“Our answer to such nonsense is simply: Anyone can take an order for a suit or shirt, anyone can claim that they make the best bespoke suits and shirts in the market place today. But only few can actually prove it in the details. We are among the few that will prove it. Even before you put our suits, shirts or footwear on, it will make a statement. With such details as hand made button holes, horn buttons, hand cut arm holes and full canvas garments made the old world way. The vision of the masterpiece that you will behold will tell stories of centuries passed. Our clothing is 100% hand made and only to your specifications and our strict guidelines.”

Here in the “Good old U S of A” we have Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, and Stuart Weitzman.
Every season designers come out with their best foot-wear forward. Sometimes they make me long for a small shoe size. While at the other end of my emotional spectrum, I can only look in horror while they crash and burn. Always saying on top of the fashion world is just part of my day to day routine. Seeing what walks down the runway or what shines at the suits during awards season is also fun... read more...
