Fashion Prince

This post is not about how Johnny Weir, fashionista and figure skater extraordinaire, was robbed at the Olympics. It is not about his stellar performances there. It is not even about that sad little, PETA driven scandal, because I am a writer and do not discuss censorship in any form.

However, this little ode does involve fur, because as we saw at New York Fashion Week, it is coming, darlings, it is coming big time! And no one wears it better, in my humble little opinion, than the inestimable, delectable, delightful, and heart stoppingly beautiful Johnny Weir.

Faux or for real, fur is being seen on coats, boots, and vests; it hangs from the cuffs of jackets and peeps out from beneath hats. And yes, my little princes, it is for the boys as well as for the girls.

So take a page from the Book of Johnny; give it a try. If it’s faux, that’s fine — but come on. Take a little risk for fashion.
