Foot Fault

Not only is it Fashion Week here in NYC, but we're heading into the final weekend of the US Open, as well. In my opinion, the gent in this circa 1980s advert is the sartorial superior to today's tennis players; the baggy Bermudas seen today just don't have the [ahem] panache of the tailored shorts of—can it be?—thirty years ago. One would have to be an athlete to navigate the design perils of this bathroom. Not only is the Roman tub a potential pitfall, but the zillions of props scattered all over the place pose a serious hazard, both physically and aesthetically.
