A few months ago we were amused to read about Wuthering Heights helping us make a good impression.

But lately we are seeing so many things in the world of fashion and clothes constantly alluding to either Emily or her book that it is turning into the complete opposite of the real thing. Wuthering Heights is such a unique book, yet we only see copycats of its so-called influence lately. We hope at least that this will make more people discover it.

See, another fashion influence:

[Jill Stuart's] Gothfriendly collection, shown at the New York Public Library, was heavy on long clericallooking coats and high-neck, dolmensleeved maxi dresses that seemed like throwbacks to Ossie Clark and Biba. More contemporary looks consisted of rock-star skinny black jeans worn with loose-fitting silky or sparkly tops. Black, grays, and occasional white dominated this somewhat severe collection. It's hard to imagine Ms. Stuart's young and girly customer base wanting to look like a character out of "Wuthering Heights." But they might like her pretty and simply draped black evening gowns.

Okay then. If Wuthering Heights is finally filmed, the costume designers will have an easy job of it.
