This is some sort of sick joke, right?

I'm not sure that fashion needs to be public - while public displays of lingerie have become more comonplace, I think I number of people still limit that viewing to their intimates.

In agreement with you (I presume), I think people are happier when the dress "for themselves" and not for the external observer - AKA Posseur.

But again, I appear to use the term "Fashion" a bit broader than most, who seem to use it a synonymous with "trendy." I think many people come to think of "fashion" as having a negative connotation as a result of that, which unfortunately prevents or limits the discussion of what our own "fashion" might be.
