Cerulean Lecture

This, STUFF? Owh! Okay... I see... You think this has nothing to do with you. You, go to your closet and you select *I dunno* that lumpy blue sweater for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back... but, what you don't know is that, that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis... it's actually cerulean. And you're also blindly unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar Dela Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns and then, I think it was Yves Saint Laurent, *wasn't it?* who showed cerulean military jackets... *I think we need a jacket here* and then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of 8 different designers... and then it filtered down through the department stores... and then trickled on down into some tragic, casual corner, where you *no doubt* fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs... and it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry, when in fact, you're wearing a sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room... from a pile of STUFF!
