Last week, the Guardian newspaper online published a photo journal from the 2013 London men’s fashion week. As I looked through the photos, I thought that I found the perfect outfit for Doug:
The above look, from J. W. Anderson’s “Mathematics of Love” collection is described by the Guardian as “an exercise in gender bending”.
“Look, Doug,” I said. “Can’t you see yourself in this?”
Leah strenuously objected.
“Ok,” I said. “Here is one much more appropriate for your Dad. “What do you think?”
Unfortunately, neither Doug nor Leah were overly enthused by this number, by Agi and Sam, either.
“Here, give me that laptop,” says Doug, who then looks through the fashion collection. “This one,” he says. “This is the one that I want”, pointing to an outfit by Sibling:
“Really, Doug? You want this one?”
“Yes.”
“Really? But why?”
“Because,” he says, “you could knit it for me!”
