If an alien came to DC

If an alien landed in DC what would it think about the fashion statements being made here? DC is not a quote "fashion city" as we know but people are trying to change that. Like Mariessa Terrell, Esq. and others seeking to make the Fashion Chamber of Commerce a reality. There's a fashion forum this week at Howard Law including a runway show (more on that later in the week). But back to DC Fashion: an alien would see a lot of leggings - I hate calling them "jeggings" - way too many in fact and a lot of Uggs - ugh - in terms of what's on the street during an average day. I'm always amazed when I see someone in stilettos during the day, very rare here. On a weekend night, at Busboys, or any of the clubs on U Street you will, however, see the tight minis and the stilettos. And on HU's campus, which I frequent as you know, there's always someone stepping across the yard in 6 inches. But it's like, do you really need those for Sociology?
