Moncler Gamme Bleu By Thom Browne Fall 2009 Collection

what the fuck? are we supposed to dress up like world war 2 hitler youth on ski vacation in bavaria? this is so fucking gay it\’s unbelievable. would you guys like to get back to some shit we might actually wear? or should we look elsewhere to know what\’s up?

dude, chill out, ok? do i have to add a “smiley face” every time i post a comment dissing some fashion trend to prove i’m not actually “passionate” about it? it’s only fashion. in case you hadn’t realized it, the phrase “that’s so gay” has come to mean a lot more than actually being gay. also, if you’re unaware of any history before 1970, check out ernst roehm and the SA (aka the brownshirts) many of whom were, in fact, gay and were hitler’s street thugs in the early days of the nazis. they were the morons who intimidated and beat up opponents on the streets of berlin and other german cities. this is the problem with trying to crack a subtle joke using historical references in a culture which is mired in political correctness and limited knowledge of real history. i find it hilarious that designers are recycling the look of hitler youth, the young upstanding volunteers of a regime that would go on to slaughter millions of people and make lampshades out of their skin. does the term “fashion victim” strike anyone as strangely apropos?

The line is not out yet, only coming early Fall 09.
