what wasn't mentioned.

It's sensible that Ungaro's origins were mentioned in this article, but what is more unmentioned is that this whole thing was a publicity stunt. Moufarrige said so himself- he expected it to be worse. It was horrible, but we still can't help but to stare. It's job was to bring about strong anger or support from viewers, because despite how shameful this line was, we're still looking, aren't we? The only pieces that looked good were the ones that had no cohesion with the heart pasties.

And i'm even more bored with people constantly whining whether or not collections during fashion week are wearable. Especially fashion week PARIS. The city KNOWN for it's individualistic design, not a homegenous identity. It's supposed to be a show. A show is for publicity. Wouldn't the concept of publicity be common sense by now? I guess not.

And this article is at least 4 days late- I was expecting more analysis. I'm a little discerned.

oh and another thing I forgot to mention:

Whether or not people will come back for more Ungaro will determine whether or not Moufarrige's plan has worked. Half way, so far successful.

The clothes were ordinary.

There was nothing new or interesting there. In fact, the whole show looked like a re-hash of the stuff La Lohan bought at Filene's Basement two years ago. Everything looked like a cheap copy of someone else's ideas. The designer that worked with her should be embarrassed. God knows, I was embarrassed for her.

"Americans"?

Whoever wrote that is very likely a non-native English speaker. Phrases like "what went unmentioned" and "half way, so far successful" are giveaways, not to mention using "discerned" that way.

It's amusing that you assume anyone making small errors must be an American. I've edited writers from the British Isles in years past and some of them were much worse than writers in the US.

I agree. It seemed to me that they wanted a "name" but the only person available was Lohan.

that doesn't excuse Mhoney's pathetic sniping.

Besides, what's he supposed to write like - a barbarian? It was a misspelling get over it.
