Red 97,780 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Time to light the Alejandro candles in a ritual to bring Jo Calderone back “with us” If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fashion might seem superficial, but it generates both creative and financial wealth for numerous countries. I also think it's not such a bad thing to put more beautiful things out into the world in these troubled days. Your criticism could be drawn against all sorts of cultural activities and entertainment as a whole, and I don't think any one of us wants a society without culture and entertainment. 22 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 25,871 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 More on topic, I hope men will finally get the message and choose to do something special... As for women, I do enjoy a masculine spin on a female wardrobe. Hopefully we'll see some Saint Laurent tuxedo nods and some JPG. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about the fashion itself but the event, it's not different than 11 minute in barely space. Rich Americans lost it completely.

elijahfan 25,871 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) 29 minutes ago, River said: I adore fashion, just not the current American one, it's the same as going 11 minute to barely space to me. Kim K is the perfect example how rich Americans turned fashion into trash and iconic fashion outfit has been destroyed. I agree there's excess and a demonstration of privilege being at play here, but it might be worth mentioning that the MET Ball is first and foremost a fundraiser dedicated to preserving the collections of the Costume Institute, as well as showcasing the work and savoir-faire of international fashion houses that, as I mentioned, generate thousands of jobs. You might not enjoy what some of the guests stand for, but this is not what this event is about and you shouldn't reduce it to that.

Rich Americans lost it completely. I'd argue it's more necessary now than ever. Go on Twitter for 2 seconds and you'll see what limiting art and artistic literacy is doing to people nowadays. It is very extravagant, but this is the pinnacle of the fashion business. Should we expect it not to? 🦠🧙♀️🥀📸🎉👻🕺🧟💊💖☎️🔪👤🐺🌱🌎 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With her current schedule, I highly doubt she'll waste energy going to an event she usually skips even when she's not busy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
