Tristan Blair - What Else!

September 11th 2007 17:56
It's fair to say after trawling boutique after fabulous boutique in this beautiful city, there is noone aside from Massarro of course, who quite puts the same shine on a pair of shoes than Australian Designer Tristan Blair.

He is elusive, demure and completely humble about his creativity. I once attempted to help him source a shoe manufacturer in Brazil. He had become great friends with a man and his chicken in Bali and was loathe to change. Given my experiences in working with Brazilian timeframes I can understand why. Nothing quite happens fast enough in that country. Needless to say in a Summer that sports cotton candy and casual style you cant go past his new collection "Wonderful Armour".

I adore this man and if I could only one day dream to be a House of Chanel with my own Massaro, and Tristan is designing exclusive, fabulous shoes for every swimwear collection, then I really think i could be considered the worlds happiest woman.

There is an ad on television with George Clooney and Nespresso that always makes me think of Tristan. It's what I would say to any stylist asking me who is adorning the toes of my models at my next show...My answer would be... Tristan Blair - What else!
