Everything in Moderation

Its not all doomsville for the world, even during this economic downturn we can always count on fashion and designers to make the world a better place at least for one day. It has always been said that fashion dictates which direction we are heading. During the war years it was noticeable that skirts seem to get shorter and shorter as the times changed. During the second world war we noticed that hemlines were longer in to which we can comment that there definitely was a depression amongst the masses, and as the hemlines shortened so did the wars. Long live fashion even in these times where Faisol Abdullah the designer of a 30 million dollar dress was quoted saying " Why do backwards, why can't we go forwards?" The dress held 751 diamonds and a 70 carat pear shaped diamond that adorned at the center on taffeta. This makes me ponder for a second.. I have to ask was this dress made for the masses, for what reason. That hope is still alive with all those women still holding on to the dream, this month I will be able to afford the new patch work of Louis Vuitton. Life is hard enough as it is without the pressure of looking good, especially when you know your bank account is looking really bad. With that said, I say everything in moderation, you can look good today but what will tomorrow bring.
