the_water_clock: abstract painting (Orange and Yellow 1956)
Author: Clio
Title: Some People Ain't Me
Pairing: Trek RPF: Chris/Karl, Zoe/Zach
Rating: PG
Summary: Wearing couture in front of some people is like casting pearls before swine, seriously. Chris and Zoe commiserate.
Length: 500 words.
Disclaimer: People sort of own themselves, don't they? Which means this is a work of fiction.
Notes: I wouldn't usually immediately post something I wrote in a comment, but it's just a little bit of silliness and is less Chris/Karl than Chris-Zoe friendship anyway.
Prompted by the reaction of some folks at [livejournal.com profile] jim_and_bones to Chris's ensemble at the recent Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (sponsored by Vogue, hosted by Anna Wintour, and a huge event in the fashion world). Chris attended as a guest of Ralph Lauren, as did Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel and Taylor Swift; Zoe was a guest of Calvin Klein. Posits that Zach and Karl were both in NYC as well that evening.
Title taken from the song "Some People" (from the musical Gypsy) written by Stephen Sondheim and Jule Styne.
For reference: Chris's Costume Gala tux (Ralph Lauren), Zoe's Costume Institute dress (Calvin Klein), Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel in Ralph Lauren at the Costume Institute Gala, and Zoe at the Oscars in Givenchy.

At least you take risks. You don't show up to red carpets like it's <em>prom night</em>. )
