So what happens when the magazine industry finally runs out of advertising dollars? Because even with the automotive bailout, you can be promised a lot less money spent on car commercials in the near future, and that trickles down (or up) to almost every cottage industry in this country, including fashion.
The newest line of thinking for fashion mag execs? If you want to keep the mag, get rid of the fashion…and clothes all together. Thus you get dirty boy Ryan McGinley doing a Tar photo shoot where the models all sport their birthday suits. Because if no one is buying your ad pages, you certainly can't feature their $3,000+ dresses in the spreads, right? Especially because these days, no one is advertising that they trade in couture brand names. So it's either dress the models up in Macy's, or nothing at all.
And come on, you had to see this coming ever since Dov Charney and his non-sweatshop porn clothing made the phrase "less is more" into something you could jack off into.
