   I checked out the slide show of the entire runway collection…the horror, the horror! My goth son HATED everything. His goth friends hated it. How do designers like that get into business and stay in business?

   Yuck! It’s like Commedia dell’arte in black! There’s really nothing goth about any of it.

   ‘Pixie-Goth Lawn Boy’ – this is why the Manolo is a genius, sometimes he somewhat overestimates the stamina of the female foot in walking about in the superfantastic shoes, but in the use of the English language he is the Proust* and the Dickens and the Tom Wolfe.

   *Proust was writing in French, obviously, but of course he was also no slouch when it came to describing the duchesses in the Fortuny gowns.

    I think the costumes (let’s not call them clothings) frightened one and all. The second evil munchkin appears to be close to vomiting.

    When good elves go bad. That second one has the pointed ears and tiny head thing that just scares me.

    Clearly, the designer watched Bowie’s “Ashes to Ashes” video one too many times.

    When the grownups lose sight of their duty to civilization, this is the result. To allow the children to play the dress-up, that is fine. To allow them to do all so in the black, yes, perhaps they will go live in New York City someday and that will be their lot, so let them prance about the playroom like this. But to open the front door and allow them to escape into the street so clothed and shod?
