Buying the New Yorker 1976 - page 1

I have a feeling we're going to be looking at a lot of clothes this time through. But such clothes!


What other decade would someone go to a fancy dress party in a pair of "tunic top pyjamas?"

But enough of that. I think that if all I am going to do in this segment is wheel out another outfit and say "Whoooo! Old fashion! People used to want to wear that!" it is going to get old fast.

So I'm going to take a moment looking at the Lord and Taylor logo. I grew up in a part of America that did not have Lord and Taylor as a mall anchor, so I didn't have a chance to see the logo evolve. If you go to the Lord and Taylor website, you can see the same logo, now much more stylized. Here, it just looks like someone sat down with a fountain pen and scribbled it out. It seems more sincere that way.
