New for Spring 2019... $890 a pair. Any takers? Anyone? Anyone?

We didn't think so.

In recent years,the fashion shows in Milano are getting more and more bizarre--even disturbing. One has to ask, "What does this have to do with presenting great style?" Nothing. It's shock value to grab cheap attention. Perhaps this attitude has always been around concerning high fashion, going back to Helmut Newton's often bloody and kinky photographic scenarios back in the 60s and seventies, for example.

But what point was Gucci trying to make with having models carrying their own heads, walking past medical examination tables or having deadpan faced models carry dead baby dragons?

What ever happened to beauty, elegance, classic style and timelessness?

Deadpan expressions, or just plain dead?

Gucci must be a fan of old Twilight Zone Episodes.

Watch the film, The Water Horse to see how we are supposed to treat dragons.
