The Gen Art 2007 LA Fashion Week kicked off this weekend. Here's an image from the Alms fashion show "installation." What the hell does that mean, "installation?" Oh, I see - it's a way of presenting the fashion without just having models walk up and down a runway. Cause that's so mainstream. This is the Gen Art fashion week - anything called "Gen Art" can't be mainstream. All right, so some dumb model stands in front of a giant "THIN" sign. Gosh, that's so post-modern, in a completely pretentious, lame, arbitrary, ultimately meaningless way. Oh, but of course, they're playing with imagery and clothes in a very synergistic way. It's all about the synergy, don't you know? And finding a nexus between something and something else. And snorting coke in the bathroom between "installations."
