september 29 article - something for the ladies...

I’m no expert at women’s fashion, but I think this article came out pretty well.

  1. It all seems kind of bland, really. The turquoise belt is something that never made it this way even back in the day, but is cute with a shirred cowboy skirt.

    Maybe designers don't know how to re-dress women after the P. Hilton era............

  2. They're grasping at straws mostly. It's terribly theatric and not very realistic.

    There was a movement afoot to get women out of low-rises and belly baring tops from 2002 on, leading to an era of constructed suits, tight tailoring and lots of broaches and jewelry. Other than the broaches (Mom's favorite), the "new-fashioned lady" never caught on, while the "objectified tramp" marched undaunted. Fashion pundits were heartbroken, while tube top salespeople and dirty old men applauded.

    Spring 2006 already promises to be stronger and better than Fall '05. Clothes will be more wearable and smarter...supposedly.

    I got my fingers crossed. We'll have to see if it sells though.
