One of the most recent examples of how the various strands of the fashion industry are interwoven — or more aptly, tied into a tight, complicated little knot — comes in the form of a Prada project called “The Iconoclasts.” The Italian design house announced that four well-known fashion editors will each window-dress one of its flagship stores. The guest merchandisers’ work is organized to coincide with Fashion Week in each of the four cities.
The point, however, is whether they should be doing it at all. In a business where conflicts of interest occur every day, this is a step too far and poorly timed. Fashion does not need such a public blow to its credibility during an economic crisis that has it quite literally — and at times, unfairly — having to justify its existence.

When Merrell Footwear started in 1981, the first products were hiking boots, which may be likened to cowboy boots in the way they fit the wearer. These boots were created uniquely for the North American feet. The heels of the Merrell boots are narrow while the toe box is wideThis is in contrast with the shoes that were made for European customers. At the time thatMerrell Footwear was established, the company was located in Waitsfield, Vermont. The special technology used in the design and creation of the Merrell boots made it receive the citation by the Backpacker Magazine as the most functional and comfortable in North America. When a person places an order for a pair of Merrell boots, he or she has to wait for six months and each handcrafted pair of Merrell boots would cost a lot.
