d_aulnoyDear Oscar Worst and Best Dressed List Makers:
I know I'm not your target audience: I never watch the show and have the sneaking suspicion that the entire fashion industry is really just a practical joke with the world's longest set-up.
Nevertheless.
What the hell is up with putting men on the best-dressed list for wearing - wait for it! - tuxes? I mean, talk about the soft bigotry of low expectations. What's next, congratulations for donning skivvies?
InsincereAirKisses!
