American Beauty

"It's a terrific time to consider where we have been as women in this country and where we are heading, triumphantly," Anna Wintour
On May 5th the Costume Institute at Metropolitan Museaum will open a new show called "American Woman: Fashionising and National Identity." I think it would be absolutely amazing to see different female archetypes and the role that fashion played in creating them. And when you say American woman and fashion, SJP is one of those who cross my mind right away. Here she is Vogue's May issue. I love the styling and I can only wish women would dress like this all the time. Even today. Maybe you think I'm uptight but I don't find anything graceful or chic about wearing leggings with shirts that hit at or above the waistband...

Piateho mája sa v Metropolitnom múzeu spustí nová výstava pod názvom Americká žena: móda a národná identita. Nepochybujem o tom, aké úžasné by bolo vidieť ženy z rozličných období a to, ako ich ovlyvnila móda. V spojení módy a ženy Američanky ma okrem iných okamžite napadne aj SJP, ktorá je hlavnou hviezdou májového čísla Vogue. Stajling je úchvatný a jediné, čo si pri pohľade na tieto fotky želám je, aby sme mohli my ženy takto chodiť oblečené stále. Možno sa vám teraz poniektorým nadvihne obočie, ale ja nevidím nič pôvabného ani šik na nosení legín a trička siahajúceho nad či tesne pod pás...
