Elegance And Innocence
“I do not know the origin of this modern form of modesty, which has swept through the feminine population from San Francisco to Paris, and which seems to cause all women to want to resemble each other – even though at the same time they are spending more and more on clothes, cosmetics, and hair dressers! But if you really enjoy being dressed exactly like everybody else, then your future is rosy. Uniformity is the natural by-product of an automized society, and – who knows?– perhaps one day indiv...iduality will be considered a crime. In the meantime, you can always join the Army.We don’t dress for who we are, so much as who we would like to be.In London, different streets and different parts of town have different uniforms. Soho has a dress code just as much as the City or the Kings Road. And then there are places where these worlds collide. The theatre is one of them.A really hot production will have an audience as mixed as they come – conservative business men, ageing Sloane rangers, hippie chic students, Notting Hill bohos, Prada and Armani-clad minimalists, gay, straight, young, old, all mashed in together and yet as clearly defined as if they’re wearing big-labelled tee-shirts.It’s a Friday night in early June.MoreLess
