Not to completely rip on fashion, but whilst reading The Guardian today, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Their Life & Style section is all about fashion today (as it is most days) and features a story called "On my way to see Status Quo" about how fashion writers don't take fashion "seriously enough". I can't figure out if they're just being funny or not because the idea that people don't take fashion serious enough make me giggle.
Ironically, in the same section is a story about how Italian Vogue take themselves a little too seriously and have a tasteless photo spread from Steven Meisel that's inspired by the Iraq war, "Shock and awe most certainly - it takes some talent to simultaneously glorify jaded soldiers, rape and violence while selling this season's Roberto Cavalli and Dior." Women stand in between half naked, tattooed male soldiers with their tiny breasts pointing higher than the American flag. There are breasts, breasts, and more breasts, all the while depicting that war is just so in this season. Sick.
