“That’s Tom Ford in a
nutshell: confident in the extreme and irreverent to the edge of defiance. For
every viewer that questions this show’s good taste, there’s another that’ll
call it glamour and be seduced.” Vogue

OR as I would like to say….
yawning?... again ? ... still? To say that this show seemed so much like a been there done that
would be an understatement. Take away the animal prints and what’s left? Take
away the Versace-iness of it and what’s left? If this is fashion news then the
show might be classified as “fake news.”

And yes there is always this level of trying to be shocking
by employing hair length skirts and “a pussy power” handbag. To say that he
mined the 80s would be like saying Nicole Kidman has tried Botox. Then of
course to jump on the “verbiage on the
tee shirt" band wagon we have the so humble designer’s signature
emblazoned in silver on black all beaded for skeinteen jillion dollar to prove
you are a rich fashion victim. Be still
my heart I am just bowled over by leggings and fur coats … again …. and some ill-fitting
bare midriff pieces and of course suits and jackets with those wing span lapels
in varying fabrications.

So the fawners are out in force.. the oohing and aaahng is
deafening and whatever happened to calling
spade a spade and good taste for that matter? Apparently glamour is now
equated with sparkles and flash similar to what attracts a goat and hubris is
mistaken for irreverent.
