Lobotomy for a Egotist - Alexander Wang Fall 2012

There once was a dark Princess who would never cease gabbing away about her achievements and possessions. She rarely considered other people's successful actions as their own, and thought that she was the wisest of them all with the world on a string.
Karma, Destiny, and Fate had been spying on this particular narcissist:
"What a cause! Wait till I get my effect on her!" bossed Karma.
"It is all her. We must show her what she deserves!" agreed Destiny.
But Fate was the most enlightened, "It is out of all control. What ever happens, happens."

Sure enough, the people that the Princess would act pretentious towards abandoned her.
Now who could she boast to, but her own self?
Unable to be heard,
She became trapped

in her own

head.

“Don’t be such a pushover,” Ilsa ordered herself. She knew she was a highly impressionable girl, and that was reasonable, but she knew it wasn’t decent now that she was landing her plane in womanhood, “you’re a dame.” This was her second week at the factory, the first time she had ever touched machinery other than a stove in her life - Ilsa wasn’t a snob, she just never needed to hold a position in the force before the war.  At least she wouldn’t get greasy replacing her father’s job as an manager. “We were meant to be,” she articulated to the assembly line belt down below. She continued work, assigning this gobbledegook aside.

"Dame" by Sveta Bout - Check her out! A couple of years back, Ms. Bout auditioned her way through high school plays with my older brother. Now she's being featured in renowned magazines, including The Rolling Stone. Her catchy, lady-like tunes have captured the audiences of NYC, and her song "Dame" was an inspiration for this short.
