Trend spotting at the Australian Shoe Fair

From September 14-16, the Australian Shoe Fair will be on in Melbourne once again - proving itself to be the buying fair for the footwear industry. At the fair will be big name international and Australian shoe labels, as well as new and emerging talent. We've already got our eye on the shoe trends that will be spotted at the fair.

These two pairs from Windsor Smith are right on the money - bold, buckled and darn fierce, with a high, tapering heel. Reptile leathers were high up in our list of shoe trends for A/W08-09, while gladiator sandals and heels continue as the hottest trend for summer.

Also look out for flat jazz shoes, lace-up heels, and ankle boots - other trends sure to be well represented at the fair.

The Australian Shoe Fair will run in parallel with Fashion Exposed & Preview for the first time this year - so be sure to register now as there will be more to see at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre than you can imagine, and you'll need the full three days to get through it all!

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels. She says: Vintage will never go out of style We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
