Quote of the Day

“Recently, however, it has become clear that Paris fashion is less the creative hub of the industry than an isolated universe whose weakness can be sensed even by children. Sometime in the last decade, the industry discovered that fashion was a terrific means to an end — so long as the end was anything but a useful new fashion. It could attract investors, sweeten a hotel deal in Dubai and serve as a communications tool.” Cathy Horyn in one of her surly NY Times reviews of the men’s shows.

In my view, each fashion capital is as important as any other as they all rpovide different things and cannot survive w/o each other. However, one could argue Londin has produced a lot of talent that is now showing elsewhere, as well as workign for toher brands (Jonathon Saunders, Phoebe Philo, etc.)
