Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
Before you comment
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.

And some more hats. Some of Davyne’s creative hats would look smashing with some of these outfits.
And more guys.
A good hat does indeed make on stand out from the crowd. In my 20 years of designing them, one of my most interesting observations is; Men LOVE seeing women in hats, veil or no veil.
The body painting was a bit silly. Who’s idea was that. Compared to the rest of the show it looks so out of place. Cheapens it.
Haute or any couture striving to be “avant garde” seems to need to shock….. recent “bearded ladies” at a runway event, expresses the “shock” effect very well.
