Confidential memo to fashion show staff: I’ll be very honest. Our new designs are the worst ever. No sane person would ever buy this dreck, so we need to divert the audience’s attention. You know, the old flim-flam.
So far, suggestions have included a mass hypnotism, a hostage-taking, and releasing hungry wolverines. But I think we’re leaning towards a sword fight. Who’s going to remember our haute couture if they’re busy watching Swashbuckling freebooters with flashing cutlasses?
And yes, Ernie, we did seriously consider your suggestion of an onstage ceremonial disembowelment, but we need to save something for the Spring/Summer show. Tell your brother thanks anyway, though…
