"Guests go to a Chanel show expecting something chic. They put on their Chanel tweeds, if they have them, and hose on the No. 5. They truck over to the Grand Palais, peek inside the little gift bag that some nice lady has handed them, and then they mount the stairs of the set to see. ..." Cathy Horyn. NYT. October 6, 2009

Ms. Horyn is the most articulate, informed, and sophisticated fashion columnist I know of. She nails it. Every time. When I read one of her pieces I feel smarter and a little more in the know.
This is not just fashionista B.S**t. This is a real understanding of couture and art and history and how they merge in our culture. I promise if you start to follow her, you will become more intelligent and much more interesting to talk to...really.

Thanks for hightlighting. Will look for her name and writing. Couture is a serious artistic field and there is much talent out there to discover and read about!
