Lots of short shorts in evidence from other designers. Of course, we already know that as far as menswear is concerned, anything that comes down the catwalk is completely ignored in favour of rolling last years sh1te back out of the store room and onto the shop floor! Frankly I don't really know why they bother with menswear shows at fashion events anymore...

On the other hand, perhaps if what comes down the catwalk was no so bl00dy ridiculous looking, the high street might use some of it!

Hello Veletron - glad to have you back !

Sure a 'Happy' bunch of chaps - Not a smile or even a lip movement !
And how best NOT to promote or sell your gear - "SHORTS ARE NEVER WORN
WITH WING TIP SHOES AND BLACK SOX" !!!!!!!!!

Somebody in Texas who was promoting a New York BBQ Sauce had the best
welcoming reply from the locals a most apt statement: "GET A ROPE" !

IDIOTS IDIOTS IDIOTS !!!

What are these fools trying to do shooting themselves in the foot making a
presentation ?

So so much for the advancement of the Men in Skirts movement !

What a lousy selection. It does not even qualify as "interesting" or "attention grabbing", the usual excuse for walking garbage down a runway. I'm no fashionista, so it's hardly surprising I don't like the stuff on display, but presumably the folks at the show were interested? Apparently not; look at the people "watching" the show, in most of the pictures none of them are even looking towards the models. That says it all really.

Have fun,


Ian.

Maybe the reason why the models aren't smiling is because they're too embarrassed to be wearing that stuff!

Typical of a fashion show - the models don't smile. Now, on the other hand, you look a woman's clothing catalog, the models are smiling!

I much prefer skirts, but i do have some unisex shorts that my wife call tom sellick shorts. they are very short like they were in the 70's here in the states.

Hmmm, I quite liked some of the tops, but all of the bottoms were decidedly uninspiring.
The models will be told to not smile, which I think is the wrong thing to do.
You want people to look happy wearing the clothes, to get them to buy them, surely?

I still have many pairs of short shorts from that period as well - and not only can still fit them but wear them often in the summer months. So the transition from short shorts to miniskirts is no big thing for me. Everyone (family, friends and neighbours) accepts the shorts (though sometimes with a bit of friendly banter as well) though these days I wear mid-thigh to knee length.

I used to go by the rule, "the warmer the weather, the shorter the shorts" to which I have added "and skirts" to it.

I used to have a few pairs of the "Tom Selleck" short shorts but over the years, either they've shrunk quite a bit or I've grown a bit around the waist... probably the latter! So... they were donated to Goodwill. I now own 2 pairs of denim short shorts that I bought in the women's section of a clothing store. I just went to the racks, found them, tried them on, and bought them. No strange looks or anything like that.

Hi Nigel
good to hear from you again and hope we may be able to arrange another meet.
I prefer short shorts on a simple basis, skinny legs. I have 2 pairs, Bukta gym shorts and Adidas hot pants. Believe it or not they fit and look better on me than any pair of baggy jobs ever could.
Steve.
