I hate to say it, but the truth is that the upscale line is where I get respect as a designer. The higher the price range, the higher the respect level from the industry, even though it's much easier to make a great $500 dress than a great $100 dress.
I'm a bit of a layman physics junkie. I don't really understand it, but I love trying to understand it.
There is another side to chivalry. If it dispenses leniency, it may with equal justification invoke control.
