A week of big surprises and radical twists in the wide world of wearing clothes.
What Was Jack Dorsey Doing at Fashion Week?
Of all the radical surprises that Paris Fashion Week brought us (Ballet flats! Male cleavage! Straight-up sexiness!), perhaps the most radical was the sight of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey sitting in the front row at Dior, Rick Owens, and Celine. As a self-proclaimed Rick Owens mega-stan, Dorsey is what we in the biz call a “100% certified jawnz enthusiast.” Still, attending fashion week is a bold declaration of fashion fandom, undertaken only by the most clothing-obsessed athletes and musicians of the world, along with the occasional actor—who are usually incentivized to attend by a sweet ka-ching from the brand. But corporate dudes, especially from the tech world, aren’t a common sight. Nor are artists, who prefer to stand in the back, unless they are an official collaborator on the collection, or Marina Abramovic.
At Dior, Dorsey was seated in the corporate honcho row, between LVMH chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault and Daniel Arsham, the artist who had been asked by designer Kim Jones to design the set and make some of house’s celebrated cross-body saddle bags. So what was Dorsey doing there? Instagram has long been the platform associated with fashion, after all, but opinionated fashion fans—so-called “hf twitter”—are a vocal subculture. What’s more, Dior and Celine are both owned by LVMH. Could it be that Dorsey is planning some kind of partnership with LVMH or the fashion industry? Twitter offered no comment on the possibility.
So is it...could it be...even possible...that Dorsey was just there to take in the fashion? Wouldn’t you, if you had the wardrobe and connections to do it? Fashion tourism—we love to see it!
Jake Gyllenhaal’s Jewelry “Delights and Disgusts”
In another moment of utter fashion bewilderment, Jake Gyllenhaal wore a gold chain, and it is dividing the world into emotionally-charged factions of good and bad taste. Gyllenhaal, attending the premiere of Spider-Man: Wow It’s Another Spider-Man Movie???, wore a deep blue suit and an even deeper blue T-shirt with a slender gold chain that entranced Twitter—and thus, the barometer of our great age of social media panic, The New York Post, followed suit with a headline proclaiming that “Jake Gyllenhaal’s gold chain both delights and disgusts.” Is it sleazy? Is it weirdly sexy? The world is divided on this issue, and perhaps only a crystal cleansing session with Gwyneth Paltrow-certified “spiritual legend” and 2020 presidential candidate Marianne Williamson can bring us all back together.
For our part, we love the chain.
Long Lines Are So Out
And finally, if all that weren’t confusing enough: WWD claims long lines are “a thing of the past.” They even have a pic of the past, which you know is the past because a long line is featured in it. No more Supreme stakeouts!
