Boots can't come out too big

Fashion photography is NOT fading here in DK. We have a GREAT magazine called DANSK (means danish) which is almost as good as a photo book! They have fashion photo series consisting of 8-12 photos reproduced on very good paper. The photo are made by the greatest danish and european photographers (and some from other parts of the world).

Here in Totnes it's very laid back which in some ways is a shame, but if someone is on the street dressed up they really stand out. This thread made me realise that when I worked in cities (especially London) suits were taken for granted, here they can make males and females look wow.

The whole "casual Friday" thing that has metamorphisized into casual everyday is now a custom in a lot of countries.

This phenomenon started in the Silicon Valley back when the computer industry was in it's infancy. Hewlitt Packard asked their employees to come in on Fridays wearing casual work clothes so that everyone could pitch in and help in the shipping department. Friday was the main shipping day and in order to get the orders out they needed everyone's help.

Now it's everywhere. If you wear a suit any day of the week in the Silicon Valley you are picked up and driven to the border and sent on your way with a stern warning.
