like players at a theatre.

[getty images]

Trust Karl to make a one-sided front row. Whether it was because the fashionistas couldn't be arsed to go all the way to venice and thus he didn't have enough audience, which i won't believe because i would use any excuse i could to go to venice, or whether karl was just being hopelessly control freak i don't care. It's nice to think that they all sat there, like the audience at a theatre show, lit by the vintage stage lights, reclining in deck chairs, watching this spectacle strut by. And it makes for a nice picture, doesn't it?
