HC is not about practicality, nor do I think it ever was; it is more closely tied to personal fantasies and expressions than anything mundane. While I would love to see fewer bum-high skirts and more suitable knee-length dresses as I am nearly 40 now, I don't want to see HC go the way of a lot of staid middle-aged ladies. Christian Lacroix, Alexander McQueen - to me they represented beautiful artistic fantasies whose absence we should all mourn. I hope Christian Lacroix at least stages a return. There is literally no one else left at the moment...I hope there is a young McQueen or Lacroix budding in the wings. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
