Milan Fashion Week Part 2

After viewing the models and clothes from Milan and a few other shows recently via the internet, it became clear there is no joy in fashion anymore.

Stark models, dressed in outlandish colors and ridiculous puffy coats have become the normal. Who in their right mind would be seen in the above abomination? Absolutely no one, trust me.

And yet, here we are. Pretty girls forced to walk trash along a tired and worn out runway. The accessories and shoes have become impractical items now. 

I've considered the alternative: Artificial intelligence and using that for a source of creativity. It borders on the verge of lunacy. Oh we've attempted to use it every now and then, but usually it fails.

Has women's fashion returned to the 1980's? Is leather back? Has the orange from the 1970's made a comeback? 

These nonsense dresses with random patches strapped to them make no sense. Adding generic t-shirts won't help resurrect a dying industry.

The crowning achievement has been using outlandish display pieces to showcase rubbish. Placing women into portable fishbowls, forcing them to endure the hot sun while wearing the items you see on this web site.

I've always wondered what was the average model pay for each fashion show. It's usually $50 to $100 per hour, but can range up to $20K for widely established and in demand models.

The fact is, there are too many professional models out there. Yes, you read that correctly. Too many. Back in the 1970's and 80's, modelling was rare. But not anymore.

Pretty appears to be a common theme today. What we've got now is unusual style coupled with trash designs. And while we won't get into where this crap is made, it's clear the items are not knitted up in Milan, Italy.  Or is it?

The time required to create these items must still be admired. With the age of advanced 3D modelling and artificial intelligence has given everyone an edge.

Is it time to bring back the old-fashion model and design house?
