Thе Lоng Striptease

Men love a striptease.

And the longer a woman can make it last, the more it drives men crazy.

This is why I like fashion.

Fashion, for the last 8 years, has been doing the slowest striptease in history.

First, we saw models coming down the runway with their bras showing.

Shirts were left with only one strategic button.

Then they discarded their shirts altogether and wore their bras as tops.

Then came the dance of the 7 veils. Translucent layers were all the rage.

When the veils were off, bustiers pressed the models's breasts so tightly to their chests that nipples began popping out right and left.

Then came totally see-through bras, tops, chain mail etc.

Whole breasts began to appear uncovered, by design.

And, finally, at the last Jоhn Gаlіаnо show, we saw a model walk around almost completely naked.

I guess this is what the great fashion designer Vіvіеnnе Wеstwооd means when she says:

"Fashion is about eventually being naked."
