I really can't understand this one. A few of you have commented on
Glitterati, and I can see why. It looks lovely in the photo. WHO'S YOUR
DADDY is a nice colour, but the standards look mis-shapen and mottled to me.
Perhaps I will think differently when I see it in the flesh.
I wouldn't mind betting it's pollen parent is ABOUT TOWN (see same page,
down and left), as are many of Barry's new things.
I'm still drooling over the CLOUD BERRY X ABOUT TOWN, and CRAZY FOR YOU X
ABOUT TOWN, intro's from the last 2 years, and I think these would be far
better purchases
Also check out the comments for GLITTERATI on the previous page. It gives
the parentage as (ISLAND GOSSIP X WHO'S YOUR DADDY) but in the previous
line, says it is a sister to CABARET GIRL.
I would suspect the latter to be a printing error, but never assume
everything. Check all these things up before you buy.
Page 7 gives the parentage of ENJOY THE PARTY as (MIND READER X FANCY WOMAN)
clearly a mistake, the last sentence being transplanted from the description
of FANCY DRESS below it.
Not that I would want to be too critical of such a fantastic catalogue.
Probably one of the best I have seen so far from TEMPO TWO.
I would love to hear what sort of comments people are making about WHO's
YOUR DADDY. Is it perhaps in part the mystery of it being 'fatherless'.
(didn't like to use the correct term here :-)
Am I missing some vital point?
I am hoping to head down to TEMPO TWO in 2 weeks time, so I will take
copious notes. Don't expect me to be too articulate. They will probably just
consist of lots of Oohing and Aahing, and a few harumphs.
Cheers, Jan
