London Fashion Week: A Break From The Insanity

Having a rare hour between shows I began surfing some of the other fashion sites covering London fashion week. Boy, are there a lot of them! Reviews, videos, party pictures of the fabulous and the fabulously dressed were all swimming in my head, making me more than just a little bit nauseous, when I came across Lynn Hirschberg's report from Sun Valley, Idaho where rich power brokers are dressing spitting in the face of fashion by dressing like major dorks. Even Harvey Weinstein who is a part owner in Halston and dates a fashion designer, Georgina Chapman, and Barry Diller, husband of Diane Von Furstenberg, seem to think that because they're real power brokers, they can dress like school boys at gym class. Or is it just that the women who usually dress them are otherwise occupied at this busy fashion time of year?
