Chic is great but so are tacky women who buy couture.... Especially when they are from Texas. I love and appreciate the aesthetic just as much.

To know good taste is to understand bad taste, a concept famously articulated by filmmaker John Waters.

"Good taste comes from bad taste" suggests that understanding, embracing, or breaking the conventional rules of "good taste" (like high art or polite etiquette) often requires first engaging with "bad taste" (unrefined, shocking, or, conversely, kitsch). This concept highlights that taste is evolving, and intentional, ironic use of bad taste can be considered brilliant or transformative.

It's a cycle that feeds from each other.

an artist friend of mine actually told me that many Texas folks bought superior art pieces with the oil money in the past decades. He said that people would be surprised by the collections in the museums over there. They were of the highest quality.

It's their money. They can spend as they please. And it's entertainment for us plebs. why not?

Living your own fantasy and according to your own concept of fabulousness will always be incomparably better than all the good taste in the world.

I'm glad there's a discussion on taste happening, but I'll be honest my ulterior motive was to whack PPP as a bad couturier lol.

Her late-career Elizabeth Taylor fantasy looks so much better in the archival Valentino looks and even the Michele pannier look.

Love me some Demna but to think she spent >10k on something that looks like a scrap from a Jenny Packham or Sherry Hill circa 2015 collection...I have shivers down my spine.

I can imagine that dress must be at least 100K, considering a Balenciaga couture jacket is 70k and a couture skirt is 60k.

All these HC customers show their purchases on Instagram like your average influencer doing a "Temu Haul" post...so embarrassing and vulgar.

Texas is big and the two can be true; some Texans can be extraordinary tacky and others (fewer) have incredible collections (and it's not even new, the De Menil founded the Rothko Chapel in 64).
