Technically it is day two..but I am slightly behind so forgive me. The Procter & Gamble products were flowing at last nights shows and I almost lost a limb as girls tittering on Jeffrey Campbell wedges lunged over me to grab free lipsticks/razors and mini bottles of scope...calm down people. I caught the TRUSST show ...which was an interesting hybrid of fashion and performance art. Models with muted make-up and sleek hair, wearing shapeless charcoal and black garments sat along the sides of the stage and periodically took pictures of the audience. Simultaneously, two models, depicted on either side of the main runway on huge screens, manipulated a grid-like web of fabric onto eachother's bodies. Strange? I think that was the point. I think most left feeling a little disappointed. As much as the fashion crowd appreciates the bizarre and the unconventional- in the end it is still about garment design. The lack of colour, shape, styling made it fairly one-note once all the crazy was stripped away. I did like the creepy models staring down the who's who in the front row. A very satisfying role reversal indeed.
