I have to admit I love RL. If they made a piece of shit on a necklace, I would prolly rock it. But thats neither here nor there. Its always nice for us regular folks to catch a runway show, imo. Plus, Im feeling the land of leatherheads 1920′s look and the throwback music they had in the background… “you kept me up all night with your coke and gin”. I have to say there is a noticeable lack of Negros and coloreds (using the term of the time for the look) and it just makes you wonder. I understand it would be a little out of place, i assume, to have the master’s clothes on the maid but still, us octoroons have shown Ralphie much love over the years n I think we should get a couple more runway models. Ultimately, what it comes down to is an exact conversation I was having with Gabe the Great and Calvin over at BKcSF this summer abt how Brooklyn Circus attempts to provide a FUBU-esque alternative to the RL aesthetic. Support the brand with the cause while making stabs a the look you want.
Always one LEAP ahead
