Look out your windows! Do you see the pigs flying by? I so
knew this would happen eventually and that is when so many designer
presentations that preceded this show were so bad that Mr. Ford looks good!
Yes Kids I said it looks good and by that I mean wearable
albeit the prices but as far as look goes... well it is simple and straight
forward and not much gimmick other than
al that fur jus for the hell of it. My guess is all that supposedly fabulous
stuff that he passed off for last spring and last fall wasn’t as great as the
pundits and media elite said it was and the fashion victims weren’t lining up
to own a piece of Ford that would be out of style by the time one got to wear
it, let alone that had been trotted across every red carpet from coast to
coast. Did I forget to mention all the free dresses that he gives as inducement
to wear that stuff? OH!! You had to pay for yours...poor you.
Really when you get down to it, there was not much there
other than some animal prints, some printed furs, some red croc and leopard or
croco cowboy boots. As stated, the clothes were just okay even if there are
executed in the plushest and lushest of fabrications. As for the styling he
does manage to evoke that just hopped out of bed look on the girls which I have
a feeling isn’t far from the truth about his following.
As for the logo sequin football top/ dress … “aren’t you
ashamed to have dragged that up from Mr. Beene?” Mr. Ford, in my eyes, you are
the provocateur, the stylist and the most over rated of the designer pack. The
reason for such heretical talk is that basically your talents lie in marketing
and self-promotion and hardly in the area of great and memorable design. Too
bad that your ego is so needy and the media can be bought so easily but alas
without you, I would have one less whipping post!
