They've now become household names, like Sunny D!

Big name designers like Alber Elbaz & Lucas Ossendrijver (Lanvin) and Raf Simons of renowned fashion houses are quickly growing in popularity. Their names and the labels they design for weren't too too popular compared to the Guccis, the Pradas, the Dolces; but that's changed as they've recently tapped into the *sneaker* market. Smart move - I had never heard of the brand Lanvin until their CRAZY hi-tops hit the runway for their F/W2007 collection. Kanye West has been spotted sporting the hard-to-get sneaks, which also helps to make these labels a household name. If Etro ever made sneaks, they'd be SO fressshhh - maybe within the next couple seasons?...... my fingers are crossed.
