Dubbing Fashion Pt 2

June 17th 2008 09:58
Do you ever find yourself in a situation where you feel out of place simply for the fact that everyone is wearing white when you are wearing black? Don't worry, the fashion industry is in the same boat.

If only for the simple fact that they soooo wish they weren't.

While over in the fashionistic strip in Paddington, Sydney the other day, I noticed a man wearing a woman's jacket. Sure it had shoulder pads and it was army green, but take another look and you'll see it to be hugging his waist.

Hugging.. his.. waist.

Prove me if I'm wrong, but men tend to find the opposite sex attractive when they wear clothes that hug their curves - just as women like to see sharpness of the male physique accented. I guess there had to come a time when men would decide to take on hip huggers, just as women have taken to shoulder pads over time (although I hear this is dying out).


Now don't get me wrong, I'll only start complaining when male fashionistas start wearing pencil skirts and corsetry. In the meanwhile, all this fashion space taken up by such liberal ideals should be taken up in politics.

Oh, so it has.

Pink ties are all the rage for the more conservative politicians these days. I can't get that picture of Malcolm Turnbull in one with a dark blue suit out of my mind, or out of the media.

Now they just need to apply these ideals to their policies. I remember David once referring to Kevin Rudd as a metrosexual. Well if Mr Rudd wants to stay wrinkle-free with both his suits and his skin, may I recommend a less polluted environment. Like one without fossil fuels perhaps?

In the meanwhile, everyone in Sydney has been happy with their cars and knowing about the predicted effect of the use of such warming the environment. Unfortunately, winter seems the only season that is guaranteed these days. Damn you, Captain Planet.


So ask me, and I'll say its all about layers. Maximum four. And do try to ignore those deluded souls who think the weather is warmer, and act so by wearing singlets and shorts in 10C weather.

You should know better.
