> Learning from New York Fashion Week: Make Wrong Right Again. | |

For an entire year of my life, every morning I had to convince my daughter | |
of the merits of wearing the right shoe on the right foot. “Why that when | |
it also works like this?“ | |
Suddenly, her battleground tactical response is not only right but also | |
totally fashionable. Wearing things the wrong way is so right: | |
Gloves are worn under your coat sleeves, right? Wrong. | |
[1][The gloves] that were once worn with your evening gown are now worn | |
either over your see-through blouse for the warm-cold look or over your | |
trench which is actually not a trench but more like a dress under which you | |
are, of course, wearing nothing! [2][Gloves] are also really hot when worn | |
over your coat worn backwards. Or how about gloves over your sweater | |
sleeves? It’s a dirty world out there anyway. Why take your gloves off… | |
ever? | |
[3][Tights] are worn under your pants or skirt, right? Wrong. | |
[4][Tights] are still worn under your pants, ok, but now they are also worn | |
over your shirt. This makes any, and I really stress any, shirt look | |
interesting. | |
Button-up shirts are buttoned in front, right? Wrong. | |
[5][Button-up shirts] are worn backwards, of course. Get with the program. | |
(I’ve been touting this look for years: catch-up, people!) | |
[6][Sweaters] are worn like shirts, right? Wrong. | |
[7][Sweaters] are worn wrapped around your neck: weren’t the arms of a | |
sweater made for this anyway? No more endless, fussy wrapping of your | |
scarf. (It’s twist-tie vs a ziplock bag kinda thing. You’re either one or | |
the other.) | |
Norwegian sweaters are worn with … (it’s not a trick question) snow boots, | |
right? Wrong. | |
[8][Norwegian sweaters] are worn with satin high-heel sandals, of course, | |
because you just never know when the sun is going to come out and you gotta | |
start somewhere on that tan – ankles and toes are the last places you’d | |
notice your winter-doughnut consumption. | |
Blazers are worn over shirts or (better yet) nothing at all, right? Wrong. | |
[9][A blazer] is, of course, worn over another blazer. Preferably a | |
different fabric altogether and unbuttoned just enough to show off your | |
beer belly, muffin top, whatever you want to call that thing, because hey, | |
it’s not really cold enough for two blazers anyway. | |
It’s wonderfully freeing, isn’t it? Next time you go to your closet and you | |
start trying to put things together, you just have to have one idea in | |
mind: how do I wear this the wrong way, et voila, [10][you’ve got it | |
right.] | |
Well, almost: Never under any circumstances should you try looking like | |
Woodie Allen dressed up as a sperm: wrong, wrong, wrong. (Ok, ok, if you | |
have a highly refined sense of humor, then by all means.) | |

## ARTIKEL ZUM THEMA | |
Guilty Fashion: Call Me Captain Lycra | |
Like a moth to the flame, I am attracted to anything that shines, sequins, | |
vinyl, and any number of polymers. | |
The soccer scarf invades high fashion: The ultimate anti-brand brand | |
When Balenciaga does a soccer scarf advertising Aldi it brings a fresh | |
breeze into the air de Paris, the air of the left with the wallet of the | |
right. | |
Kolumne Air de Paris: Schrecklich. Und faszinierend. | |
Wenn jemand auf die Idee kommt, ein ernstes Thema anzusprechen, geht ein | |
Alarm los. Eindrücke von der Pariser Woche der Haute Couture. | |
The renaissance of socks: Hand-knitted by the Queen | |
Gucci socks at 190 euro, Alexander McQueen socks for 245 euro – the sock | |
inflation brought us socks for the 1%. Or actually, they're accessoires. | |
Bilder von Kriegsfotografinnen: Wir Weltempfänger aus Beton | |
Gibt es einen weiblichen Blick auf Krieg? Diese Idee ist absurd. Was wir | |
aus der Ferne verlangen müssen, ist, den Alltag zu sehen. |
