I found the Hermes ad pictured below in the Men’s Fashion Fall 2009 NY Times Magazine. It’s one of the worst/craziest ads I’ve ever seen. I call it, Deranged Dandy Gets Lost on Orca Hunt.
“Me thinks I’ll build a fire this eve, yeah. In a firepit made of ice, yeah. Ice ‘ill do just [...]
The slaves to fashion have taken to wearing some ridiculous footwear this summer. Walk around New York City and you’ll find both men and women wearing shoes with ultra thin, hard soles that impart about as much support as a bra made of of rubber bands and dental floss. Those of you with functionally high [...]

For the love of all things holy, I really hope this is the year women stop wearing Ugg boots. Why on earth would you wear boots that make you look like a centaur? Also, news flash, they ain’t waterproof. Infact, I can’t think of anything worse to wear in the rain than a suede clodhopper [...]
Several months ago I wrote a blazing piece on the Crocs footwear company, indicting them for making such god awfully heinous shoes.
