Pygmania

Cribbed extensively (fully) from today's Dazed States of Independence with Mike the Ruler, please see the following description of a SS'04 show and accompanying image and video. Then enjoy spending the rest of the day devouring more information about it. "Considering the awesome, spooky spectacle of Carol Christian Poell’s “Mainstream Downstream” presentation in Milan for men’s SS04, it’s a wonder the label isn’t more famous. Models were sent floating down the city’s Naviglio Grande canal (presumably buoyed by hidden floats), like a bunch of well-dressed corpses, or modern-day male Ophelias. Injections of blood red in the outfits only added to the sense of the macabre."
