Wigs, For Real.

      Throughout history wigs have been associated with costume attire--an extraordinary form of dress for theatrical or ceremonial situations. They have been recognized as something that is associated with halloween, costume parties and unfortunate hair loss circumstances. Yet, this stigmatization of wigs may be fleeting; wigs may be changing from "mmm, don't think so" to "yeah, why not."
Remember, I'm not talking about weaves or extensions --which have habituated themselves in everyday wear for a number of years, I'm talking about full out wigs. Wigs being worn out for cocktails, dinner or even a quick run to the store. Sure, their functionality may not be substantial, but they can be strikingly transformative, sexy and playful. They can enhance the cohesiveness and drama of an ensemble instantly. Really, who needs real when you have wigs?
