Melissa Kowalczyk: What is your take on fashion? For instance, when you hear the word fashion, what do you think of? Lady Atropos: It makes me think of over-priced clothing bought by middle-aged women who have too much money. MK: Hmm... Interesting. I tend to think of the Gap... kind of scares me. LA: Yea - Gap, Abercrombie, etc. scare me. $70 for a t-shirt is a joke. What’s even more of a joke is the people who buy that shit to be "cool." It’s causing parents raise their kids to value a $70 t-shirt rather than understanding why that shirt costs $70 and how to avoid the trappings of vanity.
