Attack of the $5,000 Bag Ladies

Fashion Week, New York City, 2007
Is it just me? Or does anyone else think those fashion shows are a little out of touch. Do people actually wear clothing like that? Out in public?? (aside from halloween). Wow. It's funny, when I was a kid there was a book/cartoon story called "The Emperor's New Clothes". If you know the story you'll get the connection. If you don't, it's basically about people going along with the 'in' crowd, even when it goes against logic, reason and better judgement. Not sure who's looking up to these people but I feel a bit sorry for them. No wonder most of those models use drugs,I'd think I'd have to be on something to wear those strange, high-priced rags too.
