A Hairy Decision

Disgusted and interested all at the same time.

When I first saw Chris's human hair come down the runway, I didn't know it was human hair. At first I thought maybe he'd taken a vintage monkey coat, which they used to wear in the '20s and '30s, and thought maybe he recycled one of those. So, my first reaction was like, "Oh, how clever." When I found out it was human hair I was both repelled and attracted at the same time. Kind of like people you shouldn't date.

I thought it was interesting, and I thought it was unpredictable. When you show black clothes, you really have to put a lot of thought into the textures and how you embellish them, or they can get really flat, particularly when you're showing them on television. I thought that was an interesting texture for him to bring in, and certainly outside the box. I don't know if most women, in reality, are thinking about wearing someone's hair extensions on their dress. I don't think it would be the biggest hit in retail, but in a couture situation, sure, it's interesting.
