He is cheerfully rumpled, slipping out of his still tied shoes (revealing a small hole in a green sock), shunning coat and tie like a squirmy 12-year-old. Bright blue eyes and a wide trust-me smile are set off by a private-island tan.

Tom Collins (Colline in the opera) follows Puccini in that the young man has a coat he loves, although it is a Tommy Hilfiger-style jacket. Today's Mimi looks nothing like Puccini's seamstress. She wears tight, shimmering spandex pants with a new holographic material annealed to the surface. Mimi literally glows, and this is the look Bloomingdale's is capitalizing on. As the season...
