To the Editor:
What some inner circle of self-perceived glitterati call "fashion" couldn’t be worn in Haifa, Beersheba or on any kibbutz or moshav in the land; nor should it be. How supremely silly those clothes look, even on the comely sabras wearing them. Israeli fashion, if there is to be such an entity, should allude to our reality — let’s be the best in sportswear or outdoor wear. But the fatuous fashion to which a few Tel Avivim aspire — let them show off to each other at their private parties and don’t subject the rest of us to such costly nonsense.
