Museum Exhibit

   Over the break i had the pleasure of briefly checking out the lay out of my ex-girl friends moms boutique shop.. It was a real joy let me tell you.. The layout of the store is pretty typically to that of the average clothing store, large womens section, two racks of overly bedazzled mens' clothing to which you dont even want to flip that price tag over for fear of financial heart attack.
   The organization of the store is divided into several categories, obviously the men and womens clothing is separate, the jewelry, candles, other random accesories are grouped, and then the clothing is sorted firstly by color then by size. I noticed the flashiest and most expensive items were often set on the mannequins, im not sure if this is because the store hopes to show off the items that pull the most profit or if the most expensive items just look better to rich people. The mannequin was almost always raised above the rest or in the window being sure to provide lots of exposure for its outfit.
    The store flows together like one big bedazzled bitch disco ball from wall to wall, blinged out jeans to some seriously questionable button up shirts for men, If i had not been here before and was completely blind to this sort of thing i would laugh my ass off; truely ask my self wtf is this and how not only can anyone wear this but how you can justify paying this much to look like a walking financial status. SILLY. Unlike a traditional museum, much less is told about the garments sold here, except for the occasional brand tags on the outside and the tags on the inside, much is learned about the material instinctively.



Buy clothes from the 80s from savers... and rock them.
