CRITICAL SHOPPER, CRITICAL ISSUESCintra again graces the pages of the (narrower) New York Times with her latest Critical Shopper experience, this time at Phi, a SoHo boutique that "showcases the artistry of the meiculously trained Norwegian designer Andreas Melbostad," where Cintra wrestled with Frankenhooker boots, Stevie Nicks lingerie and trained cheetahs.
Those with keen eyes will also discern slight oddities about this particular posting. We here at cintrawilson.com are in the midst of transitioning away from our current *cough* webhost to a superior one whose servers will not break every time we assign a post a category in Movable Type. We know that things like commenting have been barely working of late, and that's why we're taking steps so that the Dregublog you've grown to love will cease to be shackled in a cage that can no longer hold it.

Hi Cintra,
Ok I'm back, for the daily grind with Miss baby face blond. I've been having "summer lovin had me a blast" with my sweetie but you've been on my mind.
GREAT fashion writing, probably the best. I was doing HABA for awhile but stopped because somehow writing for The Nation seemed like better goal; how stupid is that? When there are cashmere gauchos and Tencel things inspired by Turkmenistan chastity belts that's all you need!
When are they kickin back the freebies? And when are you going to get that Nehuru one piece malliot? I say bring Mr Pregnant with you to Bonwit Teller and really show Andre Leon Tally you know where the homies shop.

Yeah, I'd like to go and hang out with Andre Leon Talley -- he is supposed to be one fierce hombrista. A few words of advice to all who pass here, but especially to the one known as Bobby Worldwide -- keep the Gragnano fizz, avoid the tizzy (if possible) and please, no matter what, don't touch the figs. Te quiero.

MR Pregnant lives!
ok I think that Dr Zaius needs to be mentioned in every Cintra high brow fashion article from here on out in fact let's just admit it: Maurice Evans as Dr. Zaius IS 21st Century fashion.
He has the straight hair, he does the 60's and the 70's very well, he's blond and he's tan.
"mattress-pad fiberfill of enchanted pimps" They would not allow that in? Oh come on! That was multiculturalism at it's best as it evokes Eldridge Cleaver's legendary hot spandex pants with the quilted rotating crotch cod piece panel that plays either the theme from Dolemite or the Enigma variations depending on mood.
