No, I was not actively looking for fashion based atrocities. Yes, I found one regardless of my original intent to scrounge up a bit of beauty. It all began so pleasantly. A first glance shouted "yes!" in my direction. As the collection continued on, the expressions on my face progressed from *ok, ok this is nice* to *seriously raised eyebrow.*
The initial red and beige pairing was very pleasing to my eye, but as I began to take notice of the stomach flu color based plaids that made frequent appearances in many the odd ensemble, things really took off for the worse. I don't know if it was the country western tackiness of the tan sweater look with a teal belt-like stripe or the obscurity of the stomach-acid tinted fur paired with a nude jacket that pushed me from sitting on the edge of the boat to jumping out willingly. There are two main concepts that do not sit well with me: one of these is pink in the wrong shade or in odd places, the other is plaid. Pair them together and I'm outta here! On what particular occasion would one plan on wearing a bubblegum pink, fluffy neckpiece with an oversized plaid scarf and dress? If anybody finds such an occasion, please feel free to contact me immediately so that I may document such a feat.
Transitioning on...in the fashion world, consistency and fluidity within a collection is vital to be able to tell a story to the audience. Maybe on planet XXX somewhere way out of the Milky Way there is a small little town where jumping from employing pink fluff and plaid to practically infringing upon Missoni's copyright patterns is acceptable. Oh and...I forgot...we are also apparently celebrating the return of Mary Poppins alongside...Christmas, kay? And don't misbehave because Papa Bear will come and eat you for the finale!!!
