Perhaps it’s a sign of the times — people are distressed and counting pennies, i'm not surprised that we’re seeing these signs translate to fashion; black is completely appropriate and timely. After all, it’s conducive to sad times, and it masks those extra pounds we’ve gained courtesy of emotional overeating. Plus, dark garments have transformative powers. The second you throw on something black, you’re instantly fashionable and magically stand taller. Right? It’s true.
Naturally, I can’t wait for the day when the phrase “in these economic times” is a distant memory. But, I think it’s safe to assume that we are all affected — designers included– by the downturn. And therefore, it’s logical to see collections that are designed to sell. Hey, black is forever hip!
Bisous et calins! (Hugs and Kisses)
