c'est drôle ou est-ce?

So it’s sort
of Velasquez meets Oscar Wilde meets Gainsborough meets drag.
Paris is off
and running with the costume ball to end
all balls or was that this guy has balls to show clothes, and I use the term
loosely, that look like this. I will say that the clothes or whatever …
costumes … are steeped in history and yes in fact were actually designed … these
are surely not the cookie cutter looks we have seen time and time again on
runways around the world.

The
narrative here is inconsequential because who cares since these clothes or whatever
they might be are not made to be worn in
any way that resembles salable real life clothes so whatever the blah blah blah
is and I say yeah yeah yeah whatever.
At any rate
this is a jolt to the senses.. Especially the visual. I ask myself if any of
these boys were embarrassed to be paraded out looking like caricatures waiting
to be bullied?

Here’s a
little excerpt from a so called valid fashion media review …. It should also be mentioned that Palomo
appeared to be moving into areas more salable. Often his pieces are one of a kind,
and not designed to be produced, but those bags and shoes and an excellent
duffle coat will hold a somewhat wider commercial appeal. All together, it was
a grand opening to Paris men’s week, and a valid, important talking point at
that.
