Playful riffs on consumer culture we expect from Jeremy Scott at Moschino. Thoughtful comments on our mobile phone-obsessed age not so much. After all, on every front row seat tonight was a gift bag with a Moschino-branded iPhone 6 cover. But a critique of our social media-mad world was at least partly what Scott was after with tonight’s collection of life-size paper doll clothes. Setting up for a Facebook Live video afterward (filmed on—what else?—a cellular phone), he said, “Before too long, this face-to-face conversation is going to feel awkward.” Meaning we’re getting awfully used to seeing the world in 2-D. Thinking about that fact gave Scott the concept for what turned out to be his cleverest Moschino show yet.
