Haute Hauteur

You couldn’t make this moment up! These well-heeled Chinese golf fans are watching the Tiger Woods-Rory McIIroy match in Zhenghou, China. Their privileged class must have a whole repertoire of haughty attitudes but even they’re bemused by the insufferable hauteur of this fashion model. Of course, Chinese runways are strutting rhinestone gas masks--likely as samizdat environmental protest!? Where did this elitist pose come from? Who decided it was haute couture? It will surely pass from fashion long before it’s begun to be a pleasure. (Photo by Hong Wu/Getty Images)
