Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months. -Oscar Wilde
Inverted pentagram and a tie. I dunno — I gotta appreciate symbolism like that. Could go either way, as could much of this spread.
And I thought fashion designers just hated women. Apparently, they hate everybody!
Androgeny is all the rage. I am trying to figure out which one is Michael Jackson.
it appears the fashion designers have a hard time coming up with anything creative. I keep thinking of Cruella DeVille – “spots!”
The thing is, what are any of these fashion shows you see all the time catering to? I’ve yet to ever see ANYONE wear any of this crap on the streets (even in the Magnificent Mile area of Chicago). I thought the highly fashionable people wear much more conservative clothing…certainly nothing you see on a runway. Or is that it, it’s basically just “runway fashion”…only wearable ON a runway? So it’s appealing to runway models only?
Maybe you’ll see some of it as costumes for rock/pop stars, but that’s about it.
Gah! Flip Flops!
Men should not be allowed to wear flip flops outside of their homes or more than one mile from a beach. It seems every time I fly lately I have had a guy wearing flip flops next to me which he invariably removes. Giving me the pleasure of looking at a gross man foot for 3 hours.
I had a bulkhead seat on a Southwest (the flying bus) flight last week. The guy next to me had his bare feet propped up on the bulkhead whiuch left disgusting black toe prints on the beige surface.
I like the long black coat. But otherwise…God what are they thinking? Androgeny, metrosexual, and what is that mummy shirt thing? And those white sunglasses left over from the women’s department at an old Kresge’s store.
Not even gay men would wear that crap without being paid too. Cripes!
Most fashions you see on the runway aren’t intended for the shelf. Often, they’re over-the-top fashion statements whose design cues will trickle down into the mainstream line.
I’ve been told that women think flip-flops are sexy. I’d say with men the issue is similar to women – just because you have open-toe shoes doesn’t mean you are allowed to neglect the condition of your feet (quite the contrary) or use the easily-removed footware as an excuse to put bare feet everywhere.
Can’t these socalled models get a real job?
Compared to being paid to just walk around and look bored?

And a haircut…
Ugly? Are you kidding? What looks better than a black trench coat over tie-dyed in Fruit Loop pastel colored pants. Forget the Janet Jackson episode. Those two pics show real wardrobe malfunctions.
God there is an army of them!
Maybe these are Uncle Dave’s “Greys” attempting to prepare us for the fall invasion?

Complain as much as you want, thanks to teen magazines this is what your kids will want to wear.
Get a grip folks.
This is a parade not different from other stuff that parades in front of YOU. Just keep your eyes open and you’ll b able to spot other sorts of drama, less flashy, but equally drama…
