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.

A Sprouting Lady - Charlotte Ronson Spring 2012

Charlotte Ronson SS 2012

Sept. 10, 2011 - New York

It’s springtime and a mother calls her daughter to come  help with pinning up the laundry on the line in the newly flourishing garden. The daughter dances down the stairs, high-spirited and rosy because she is wearing a new white trapeze robe she has sewn full of bows, tea stains, and petite daisies. Her mother is so proud, “What a splendid dress!" It reminded the mother of Claude Monet's most famous piece of art - Water Lilies; it was incredible how much her kin had grown into an artist. The mother could easily tell a true woman was in the making.

Her own seed. How proud she was.
