Hot or Not? Fall 2010 Runway Looks

We all know that many outfits seen on the runway are absolutely impossible for everyday wear, and we've all seen the wild and bizarre wardrobe combinations. The runway is usually where the most cutting edge trends are displayed, and most of these trends do not even reach the mainstream consumer (me and you) until the following year! Here are a few looks that were seen on the runway for Fall 2010 Haute Couture and Ready to Wear shows.

So the question is: Hot or Not? Do you think these trends will stick?

WHITE TIGHTS/WHITE LEGGINGS

White tights and leggings are a tricky thing to master. The "No White After Labor Day" rule has long been forgotten, so that wouldn't be a real issue, but how do you wear these without looking circa 1992? Runway models always look incredible, but not everyone has amazingly long slender legs. I'm on the fence with this one. Are you going to be wearing white tights this fall?


SOCKS WITH HEELS

This example was not hard to find. In fact, I found so many examples of this trend that I couldn't fit them all in one set! Socks and heels are everywhere! Even socks with open-toed strappy sandals. Isn't that supposed to be a big fashion faux pas? Last time I checked, it was! Yet, the most influential designers have them paired with every outfit. I don't know! Will it stick?

FULL FUR BOOTS & MUKLUKS

UGGs have been HUGE for the past few years, and they will not be lacking in popularity any time soon, but what about the full fur boots, or "mukluks" as I like to refer to them as? These were also a big trend on the runways this fall, especially with Chanel. We've seen these on and off with celebrities over the past 10 years, but will they ever make down to us? Would you wear mukluks?


THIGH HIGH BOOTS


Hot or Not: Thigh High BootsFashion Trends & Styles - Polyvore

So we LOVE a fabulous over-the-knee boot! But how high is too high? It seems like the sky is the limit on the runway, as it is with most everything at this stage in the fashion cycle. Of all the runway trends in this post, I think this one has the best chance to make it to ready to wear. We are already crazy about the over-the-knee look, so why not go thigh high? How high are you willing to wear your boots?

Let us know what you think of these runway trends! Hot or Not?
