Meredith Blake at the New York Daily News reports today that fashion is getting demure this season. Her reasoning behind this is that the plunging necklines everyone has been so used to is officially getting the boot. She uses Roberto Cavalli’s Spring show in Milan as an example. Truth be told his collection was very conservative but Cavalli is not known for outward displays of tawdriness. Blake though somehow missed the fact that being demure is only one aspect of the fashion going on this season. Quick example, Prada’s Spring collection:
Prada Plunging Neckline
You also can’t forget Marc Jacobs’ derelicte moment last Spring. Let’s wear underwear externally!! So is Blake’s assessment that fashion is getting compassionately conservative? Nah.
