I just came across these new fashion items and I’m wondering why both Moschino and Karen Walker want us to look like clowns.

No one really likes clowns. Most of the people I know are either afraid of them or repelled by them.

I will never forget the time I was shopping in a supermarket, and a little kid sitting in his father’s grocery cart shouted out as they passed by me: “Daddy, did you see the clown?” The dad was embarrassed but I had to laugh.   I had blood red streaks in my hair and a pair of big gold 50s sunglasses.

It’s never good to be mistaken for a clown. Sometimes you need a little kid to critique your style.
