Not The Trekkies

Manolo says, no, this pair they are not, as you may suspect, the King and Queen of the Trek Expo 2005.

In the stead, they are the Kiwi fashion designers, who with this picture are proving some of the theories the Manolo maintains about those who make the fashion.

Here is the Manolo talking about the Project Runway designers.

Indeed, many designers they will simply give up and dress themselves in all black all of the time, thinking that non-color will deflect from them the criticisms of their poor fashion choices.

[…]

So the making over of the designers, it is something the Manolo has longed to do, to transform them from the random shambling heaps of hair balls and cleaning rags, into something more like sentient beings.

In the best of cases this it would not be the easiest of the tasks as the designers of the Project Runway, they are not the handsome peoples.This it is not the handicap in the world of fashion, as it is also true that many of the famous fashion designers, they too are ugly.

The Manolo, he theorizes that this it is because the ugly they are naturally drawn to the beauty.

Yes, one does not wish to be overly cruel to those who are not beautiful, especially as the Manolo himself is not the prize sow at the state fair, however he cannot but notice that these things are often true.

The Next Carnivale of the Couture

Manolo says, the next Carnivale of the Couture it will be held at the very amusing Sense of Soot.

The Topic is Torturous Fashion, and not the kind you tried, hated, and discarded. Oh no, we’re going deeper into the dark corners than that, my dumplings. There is something you have owned, a style you have loved with a masochism unparalleled. We’d adore a picture of the wicked object of your agonized affection, but you must at least confess what fashion item hurt you, and why you continued wearing it in your twisted triumph and shame.

Excellent topic!
