"As a veteran defender of pornography and staunch admirer of strip clubs, I have to say that an overwhelming number of today's female-authored Instagrams seem stilted, forced and strangely unsexy."
"Visual illiteracy is spreading: It is sadly obvious that few young people have seen classic romantic films or studied the spectacular corpus of Hollywood publicity stills, with their gorgeous sensual allure.... [T]he bright and shiny surface of too many of today's female-generated Instagrams conceals a bleak and regressive reality, with men in the driver's seat for careless, hit-and-run hookups.... [M]any of today's young professionals sporting stiletto heels, miniskirts and plunging bodices might not realize that to wear that fabulous drag, you need a killer mind and manner to go with it... Given our rising concern about sexual harassment, it's time for a major rethink and recalibration of women's self-presentation on social media as well as in the workplace. The line between the public and private realms must be redrawn. Be yourself on your own time. The workplace should be a gender-neutral zone. It is neither a playground for male predators nor a fashion runway for women.... The current surplus of exposed flesh in the public realm has led to a devaluation of women and, paradoxically, to sexual ennui.... That there is growing discontent with overexposure in Western women's dress is suggested by the elegant flowing drapery of Muslim-influenced designs by Dolce & Gabbana and Oscar de la Renta, among others, in recent years....."
Could you tell that's Camille Paglia?
Women are supposed to cover up now because men might be moved to sexually harass them and because they don't have the "killer mind and manner" you need to be sexually attractive in the workplace?! She's rhapsodizing about "Muslim-influenced" "flowing drapery"?!!

"I want to create scenarios and imaginary fashion places where real clothes for everyday life can cheer you up."
Said Giuliano Calza, the co-founder of God Can’t Destroy Streetwear, quoted in "Models Wearing 3 Breasts Strut Down The Runway At Milan Fashion Week/The prosthetics were an homage to 'Total Recall,' the designer told HuffPost" (HuffPo).
Here's the "Total Recall" inspiration (warning: naked breasts):
Cheer up!

Korean fashion in the 70's
Pann: Korean fashion in the 70's
1. [+120, -2] The outfits in this picture are so pretty...
2. [+89, -1] They wore short skirts a lot? I expected the 70's to be conservative.
3. [+59, -0] Unlike I thought, they don't look outdated.
4. [+44, -5] What's irony is that women at the time wore those short skirts to fight against the conservative prejudice and to win their rights but the feminists of Megal and Womad are jealous of pretty girls and bash them for dressing up because they themselves have a hopeless face and a body.
5. [+35, -0] I thought this was Son Heung Min.
6. [+24, -1] Trends circulate.
7. [+23, -0] This looks like fierce unnies in the 70's.
8. [+21, -0] The fashion was better at that time. Beggar looks are a trend nowadays so even the celebrities dress like this.
9. [+20, -0] This looks modern. I guess trends do circulate.
10. [+18, -0] This was in the late-80's. Doesn't the hairstyle looks modern, too?
