Let them eat couture, part 2

Consider me stunned to learn that I was beaten to the punch in my association of fashion with aggressively snobby pre-revolutionary French aristocrats by none other than Juicy Couture, who have slapped the line “let them eat couture” on an ad, a bag, and a Christmas ornament. Just in case you needed any more evidence of the fashion industry’s open contempt for all who dare to not be rich. And the cheerful implication that if you’re eating couture, you sure as hell aren’t eating food is a whole other can of worms I’m not even going to open.
