Fashionisms: Part Deux
A) "What a fabulous melage, wasn't it?! Simultaneously space-age, and retro...and Barbie! And the genius, really, right there...don't you think? In that simultaneity, I mean. It really is. I mean, it really, really is. Gorgeous."
B) "Velvet. Victorian. Almost like a re-printed tart. The kind you'd find in some backwater like Sheffield. Ruffled necklines that we saw collapsed, but somehow not lazy. I'm not quite sure how he pulled it off, but it was very modern, very sheik, very sexy".
C) "Oh he's SUCH a nomad, isn't he? But somehow a bit of a post-modern cowboy at the same time. And did you notice the corsets? The way the ripples almost descended off the bodice. I think it was a kind of commentary on the Victorian ideal versus the late 21st century 'Golgi' body".
D) "The message here is: fasteners. It's about owning your own destiny. It's about "pinning up" instead of "putting up".
E) "How can I put this to you in a way you'll understand...Throwing a pebble into a pond is a very violent act. But it's still feminine, and beautiful. Much more so than one might imagine".
