Miranda Priestly: You… go to your bureau, and you select… I don’t know, that thin blue watch band for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your wrist, but what you don’t know is that that band is not just blue, it’s not turquoise, it’s not lapis, it’s actually cerulean.
You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that, in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns, and then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent, wasn’t it?… who showed cerulean military jackets. I think we need a jacket here.
And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. Then it filtered down through the department stores, and then trickled on down into some Apple Store where you, no doubt, fished it out of some bin.
However, that blue represents millions of dollars of countless jobs, and it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry, when in fact, you’re wearing a watch band that was selected for you by the people in this room… from a pile of “stuff.”
Any ”Devil Wears Prada” fans in here? Okay…just me.
