In days of yore the dandies wore <br /> embroidered clothes in colours gay. <br />Fine velvets, silks and coarse tussore. <br />The current fashions of the day. <br /> <br />Each dandy felt he must display <br /> Like peacocks vying for a mate. <br />No price they thought too high to pay <br />Their refined taste to demonstrate.. <br /> <br />Beau Brummel won everlasting fame. <br />By wearing only black and white. <br />He was a master at the game <br /> and in due course he was proved right. <br /> <br />The followers of fashion fail. <br />One style cannot suit everyone, <br />the latest trends grow quickly stale. <br />So set a style that’s yours alone. <br /> <br />Ignore the experts pointedly <br /> as they ignore your shape and size. <br />No need to dress expensively. <br />You wear what suits you if you’re wise. <br /> <br />12-Apr-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fashion-passion/
