On Fashion’s Night Out and Social Darwinism

Unless you have been living in a cave for the last few years, you undoubtedly noticed that this past Thursday marked the third annual Fashion’s Night Out, a joint initiative by Vogue and the CFDA to help promote full-price retail by way of throwing lavish parties and getting revelers (including, but not limited to, industry heads, models and prospective everyday consumers) really, really fucked up.  Much like the Fourth of July, Halloween, New Years Eve, your 21st birthday and any other day whereby humans spend an inordinate amount of time and capital plotting a day of celebration, for most (read: those aforementioned prospective everyday consumers–industry heads and models always have fun) it’s a complete and utter let down.

Take, for example, the thousands of pathetic souls missing all sorts of chromosomes who showed up at that sorry excuse for a retailer “Dash.”  Really?  You didn’t think that shit would get shut down when there were thousands of you romping around SoHo, desperate to touch–nay, merely see–one of those talentless, frumpy, surgically enhanced Geico cavewomen?  You’re completely useless and reassure me that no matter how difficult life may get at times, I am going to be just fine.

Hi, my name is Nice Try, Bro, and I’m an asshole

Dear readers,

I’m Trunzo. I don’t have many interests these days outside sonning menswear bloggers, stylecons, designers and other related douchers. I guess that makes me a real life Silky Johnson or a sartorially inclined Rorschach. And I like to think I’m pretty good at it, or at least I hope I am, because if I’m not, well then I’m just wasting a lot of my free time at a fruitless endeavor now aren’t I?

In any event, the boys at Vane have tapped me as resident hater around these parts.  My job description is to hate on a diverse array of mark ass marks, trick ass marks, punk bitches, skip skap skanks and scallywags, hoes, heifers, hee haws and hoola-hoops.  If one of my entries ever offend you, well that means you probably need to upgrade yourself in some way, shape or form–don’t hate the player, hate the game.

So now that Atif has officially listed me as a contributer to the Vane blog (sneaky bastard), I guess I’m obligated to provide content.  And I will, don’t you worry.  I just need to finish nursing this Labor Day weekend hangover first. In the meantime, my other gig over at Nice Try, Bro should keep you entertained for a while–it gets the people going.

Yours in hate,

Nice Try, Bro
