HEY


Hey - I went to the Marc Jacobs show last night. He started on time again - or nearly so - for the second season in a row. I actually miss the days when he used to make people wait for an hour or so. The bleacher seating at the Armory already makes it feel like a gym - the waiting around and running into old friends made it feel like some sort of crazy high-school reunion. This season was one of my favorite MJ collections ever - I absolutely loved it. I loved the little straw boater hats, the plaid shirts that were shot through with metallic thread, the massive espadrille-meets-stiletto hybrid shoes that most of the models were wearing. I really loved the way that the stylist had piled everything on top of the other - brilliant styling. I’m calling it “Southern Depression-era picnic girl gets kidnapped by a gang of gypsies”. Stefan Beckman’s “Hall of Mirrors” runway/set design and Frederic Sanchez’s choice of an all-instrumental Gershwin soundtrack contributed greatly to the dreamy, cinematic, late 20’s/early 30’s-era feeling. If this sort of masterful collection was somehow inspired by our own current economic downturn then I’m hoping recovery is a long time coming. - xo eddie

NUTS HISTERIA

Are Nut Bans Promoting Hysteria? Worries about nut allergies are intense in some circles. (Lars Klove for The New York Times) Every parent of a school-age child has heard the warnings about nut allergies. Some schools ban nuts entirely, while others set aside special nut-free tables. Parents are often quizzed about the ingredients and preparation methods for birthday treats they send to school. One parent told me she was asked whether a clean knife used to cut brownies had ever been used to spread peanut butter. While nut allergies are clearly a risk to some children, often the response to this health concern represents “a gross overreaction to the magnitude of the threat,” argues Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, an internal medicine doctor and professor at Harvard Medical School, in a recent column in the British medical journal BMJ. In the column, Dr. Christakis points out that about 3.3 million Americans are allergic to nuts, and even more — 6.9 million — are allergic to seafood. But of ...
