The Sphinx Speaks: French Protest Fashion Now
Gentle Reader -
The late, great Diana Vreeland - during her early years at Harper's Bazaar - might have posed this question to the workers of France, who are again protesting:
Why don't you protest in tuxedos and evening gowns, so the government knows this is a real crisis?
You might think this is along the lines of Queen M-A's comment about the populace and cakes. Perhaps.
But think back to 1968, which was really the French Mini-Revolution. Those protesters of 1968 might have smelled terribly, yet they had style.
Alas, sometimes we stand up for rights we might have won, not quite realizing that which we have forever lost.
