How I hate the Style Issue of The New Yorker! It used to just be a fall event, but now it is showing up in the spring as well. What a bore! As I’ve said before, I dislike the trend toward specialty issues, whether it be fashion, fiction or whatever. I read the magazine to get a broad overview of different topics, so these specialty issues irritate me, especially when the topic is fashion! That said, Patricia Marx is as amusing as always in her column “Dressin’ Texan.” Otherwise, nothing else of interest.
