And Betsey Johnson is Queen



I love Betsey Johnson. I am not in any shape to wear any of the clothes she designs. I would look dumb in them even if I were totally slim and in shape. But Betsey makes me smile. She is upbeat, funny, and totally out there in her attitude. I see her as a force for happiness in the world. Betsey makes money. Can't fault her for that. Her shows are just that, shows. People go and watch the models and I am willing to bet they come out smiling even if there is not one thing they can wear. The attitude of joy and enjoyment is all pervasive. And I, for one, appreciate the eye candy she produces. Hip hip hooray for Betsey.
Why not?
I have just written a blog about women in music who are wearing costumes for performances and in real life. Of course I left out Madonna. Can't figure out what she wears ever. As I viewed the blog, I noticed the previous post. John Galiano's spring RTW would make great costumes for the gals.

I am amazed that the music industry is not talking out loud about the new trend in costume evidenced by Katie Perry and Gaga. Of course after the hair bands of the 80's and particularly the make up wearing bands,this has been common. But I have noticed that it has changed sexes. Now Christina, Avril, Britney, and the two aforementioned warblers are sporting costume both for performance and in daily life. Pink has been somewhat trendy to this end. The clothes worn by Beyonce seem like costumes often because she mixes so many designer duds. So in the 80's, Kiss and the rest of the bands liked to look different than usual. Now Gwen Stefani and her group of groupies gives us the costume thing. I guess it was inevitable.
