This is a scream (thanks to Juan Felipe). I have to admit that it takes chutzpah to do something really stupid and possibly illegal, and then to threaten a lawsuit when someone calls you on it. I’ve had moron spammers threaten me for reporting them to the ISPs too. Usually makes me tremble in my boots. Really…
Send this one to the “give me a fucking break” file. The man sells his own NAME to Gucci and later retires, wealthier than I’ll ever be, complaining that the fashion industry is more about commerce than art…
Please. We’re not talking about someone who puts together a really cool outfit to go out to a club here; we’re talking about a major corporation. Yes, innovation is more essential in the fashion industry than in most others, and there may even be something vaguely artistic involved once in a while, but if no one buys any clothes, there’s no industry at all…
I wonder just which specific artistic statement was behind those cheap Yves St. Laurent hankies I used to buy my dad at Penney’s years ago?
