Fashionably Cultural, and Culturally Fashionable.
Fashion Week begins in New York this Tuesday. While some feel it’s nothing more than a vapid display of vanity and consumerism, fashion maintains a choke-hold as one of the most culturally potent forces. Fashion is in bed with Music, who is currently dating Art, who trysts with Politics, who showed up at the dance with Professional Sports, who met in the parking lot with The Film Industry, who was seen just last week seen throwing back shots with Advertising. While we may not all wear couture, even those who are most devoid of plot still show up in costume. Note: even if you’re not a Galliano fan, Fashion Week is worth paying attention to. If you can see past the ostrich feathers and leopard print, you’ll get a fabulous birds-eye view of what’s next among the bourgeois.
