Rihanna was already rockin shoulder pads last May, now we’re seeing them all over this season’s runways including top designers Balmain (left) and Givenchy (right). What’s it going to take for you to start wearing the strong shoulder? I know. The fact that they’re only 49 cents per pair at Dressew (337 W. Hastings). I couldn’t believe it either, so I stocked up on various sizes and shapes to insert into my roomy blazers and cardys. I can just see it—skinnies, studded over-the-knee boots and a wicked set of pads. Get fierce ladies.
