I was walking across St. Mark's Place the other day, at First Avenue, when I saw this:

| Antique dress form. |
And in true East Village fashion, it's chained to a street sign! It even has a chain around its waist, for good measure! (Get it? Dress form… good measure?)
Yesterday's means of production become today's street art installations… in the East Village Today!

i perceive a much, much, deeper meaning, a statement, several:
ReplyDelete- that fashion is tied to what is happening on the street, and not what comes out of the design studio
- that you have to steel yourself to be fashionable
- that the next skirt length will be very long but not quite ankle length
- those long skits with be accessorized with a chain loosely hanging around the hips
- the next list of pantone fashion colors will include 'orange rust'.

You know, Pantone 471 has long been one of my favorite Pantone colors! I think it's the color Tom's of Maine uses for the cap of their Cinnamint toothpaste!
