what the "regulars" have to say. Too bad....

The sad deterioration of the group has been mentioned before.
Alt.Fashion used to be "one stop shopping" for discussion of of all
things fashion related. I have been thinking about that the last
couple of weeks since we are now in the midst of awards show season.
The morning after the Golden Globes, and particularly the Oscars,
there would be scores of posts about what the stars were wearing on
the red carpet.
Every year when the September and March fashion magazines came out,
there would be discussion of the trends which ones worked, which
one were ridiculous.
There was always plent of discussion about makeup and recommendations
for skin care.
I miss the group the way it was before the trolls, flame warriors and
spammers took over.
There has been mention of another, alternative alt.fashion that had
been set up. I believe that it is an internet urban myth. I asked to
join this group, and I noticed that my email inbox was a bit more full
of spam than usuall.
