    In an effort to be creative, fashion designers never fail to succeed in making the models (female, and now male) look ridiculous. The designs are full-out tacky-ugly; but, that's just my opinion.

    I could go for the blue plaid overcoat. I liked that.

    In the very last photo (the black and white plaid), it looks like the fabric even wants to get away from there.

    What shows up on the runway is usually way crazier than what actually makes into onto the street. Some of those pieces would look decent on their own...the cable knit suit not so much.
    At least there were some hose I would wear.

    I like the white cabled jacket. I'm trying to figure out how it was made.

    That is the long and the short of it. I won’t even comment on the clothing, but the sporran shape they have is quite odd, yet clearly uniform throughout the collection. And what’s with those tassels hanging from below the sporran?

    The one thing I like about the shape of the sporran is the wide bottom. Lets your thighs take the "pounding" when walking. It does kind of look like it's on upside down -- doesn't it?

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    Each to his own!
    If it helps keep the tweed industry in good health then that's good for all of us! Re-invent all day!!
