Since I have neither I am going to take liberties at pontificating on said subject.
I get the sense that both are overrated and the former is used to largely support a scam run in broad daylight. At night it is harder to discern who is fashionable anyway hence the expression. Add to that a certain state of inebriation at the late hour and it further supports the theory that Fashion is irrelevant at the bar. Mucho Dinero matter.
Said scam is operated by the likes of big brand names; largely resident in Europe (remember Seinfeld famously saying his man purse is actually 'European') or from designers whose names are more complex to say than the biological designation of opium.
On the matter of looks - you are either born with them or not. Simple! Those that are not are to accept it as fait accompli and make hay under whatever planetary light they can find. Why anyone would embark on hay making in today's day and age is a matter of another blog - perhaps weed may be appropriate.
I suppose the whole theory of being fashionable is to believe that it would invite certain amount of ogling from those devoid of it. That such observed ogling provides certain mental stimulation in the form of happiness to the fashionable.
But mind you too much of that in the form of paparazzi behavior also turns the fashionables to ditch their aura and start foaming at the mouth - an utterly unfashionable aspect of human kind I say.
For those not content to accept the earlier mentioned 'fait' they turn to the modern miracles of medicine or surgical alternatives to alter their facade. These experiments at times meet with success as seen by the eyes of the beholder. Mostly the beholder tends to be somehow monetarily linked to the specimen undergoing the surgery and tends to ooze expressions of awe at the end of the procedure.
In fact I am going on a limb (I have two to walk on) with a pocket square to say that 'Fashion Sense' is an oxymoron.

You may turn out to be the David 'Oglevy' of fashion marketing at this rate. I loved this frontal assault on the gurus of FTV and F itself.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the point on focusing on the rear after all; even the rear view mirror merely shows someone's front!
