from Soma, latest issue, Stephen Barrows:
Money dictates the level of design in fashion today, hence you have collections looking like they are straight out of college, embellished to hide a lack of design innovation. Today's youth is immersed in a nostalgic obsession that is depressing in its consistent banality. What's more surprising is that it is accepted as new and revolutionary by today's media. It is all surface and cosmetically enhanced-all you get is "bland sauce and no meat". Exceptions include Lagerfeld and Gaultier "Thank God for saviors"
