Coffee Talk: Betsy Johnson




Have you watched Betsy Johnson’s show yet on the Style Channel?  It’s cute; I’m hoping we see more of her creative endeavors though.

There are tons of these patterns on the web.  These are mine. 

I remember the BIG Betsy back in the 70's (BIG as in popular).  Some of the things that defined her style—fun, colorful, prints, neon, girly, have been present throughout her illustrious career.  And it seems she is trying to make a comeback—with the financial help of Steve Madden.   Hence the big push lately; I'm seeing A LOT of Betsy Johnson stuff out there.  Web site too. 

Fakey cartwheel  I would kill myself if I really tried.  


What makes me want to root for Betsy and her comeback, is I secretly want a world of woman designing womans' clothes.  Not that guys aren't talented or anything; it's just that its sort of a throw-back to it's a "man's world" and all that rot.  I mean, how many women are designing men's clothes????? Let's even up the playing field here people!

That's why I say, Go Betsy!  What say you?
