The reason these aren't displayed on models is that they couldn't get anyone to wear the monstrosities." i guess these folks are the ones who hated bjork's swan dress. seriously, folks, buy a sense of sense of humour. oh, wait... xo - -- "people with opinions just go around bothering one another." -- the buddha ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2010 20:40:45 +1200 From: grutness@slingshot.co.nz Subject: hello?

Another TV reference: me doing that Homer Simspon drooling noise whenever I see Christina Hendricks. Yes, and yes. London Fog was actually featured in the storyline of the s3 opener of MAD MEN (they use mostly, maybe all, real company names in the show, which really surprised me), but not in the most flattering metaphorical light, and not in a Joan storyline (Don and Sal made the visit to the London Fog factory). But I do wonder if the MAD MEN - London Fog connection is part of how this gig for Ms. Hendricks came to be. later, Miles - -- over a year of feeling guilty about not blogging enough! http://readingpronunciation.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2010 21:27:11 -0400 From: ross Subject: Re: hello?
