Hey, why do they call it a "hype cycle"? Is it cyclical or something? Hmm...

But toggle shawl necks, they're the way to go. Should get through F/W 2010.

Blasphemy. TF has come around from the backlash into the hype now that B&S is not saturated with it.

TF has a good ways to go before a backlash.

Obvious backlashes are toggles, elbow patches, and shawls. No backlash yet on contrast shoelaces, but there should be.

Are longwings at saturation or already into over-hyped?

It's so hard to tell these days whether or not new members' posts are just old members trolling.

Define "new member" versus "old member." I've been lurking here for 5+ years. And isn't the premise of this whole thread sort of trolling?

No wonder, with manton, vox, gdl and edmorel amongst her customers. That's like a 100,000 SF posts all combined.

I just hope she doesn't screw up a single detail on a single jacket, else the backlash is going to be legendary.
