FRIDAY FASHION...OR SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL? Highlights are indented.
"Here were women who actually have the wherewithal to purchase the clothes that are sent down the couture runways. They have the bearing and the experience to maneuver a flight of stairs wearing a gown with a significant train without having to glance down or hike the dress up to their knees. These women don't walk; they glide because they have years of practice. And while many of them are as lithe as runway models, others have hips and cleavage. Some are even plump."--Robin Givhan on the opening of "The Art of Weightlessness," the Fashion Institute of Technology's exhibit on Ralph Rucci, maker of "$2,000 pants, $1,000 shirts"
