Another shallow but fun character is the first contestant vying for Steven’s heart, Crystal Style, whose real name is Emma Zarkowski. Perkins cannot get enough of poking fun at her lack of style and culture by noting that her coat was not fur but “the pelt of the rare endangered American Rayon, probably,” and that she called crepes suzette “pancakes.” Amazingly enough, she not only believes in spirit animals, crystal power, and being abducted by aliens, but she also protests anti-globalization...
Manufactured in Hong Kong, Italy and the U.S., the collection is the result of Tommy Hilfiger's acquisition of the Karl Lagerfeld trademark in 2004. And while Lagerfeld is famous for his multitasking talents, whether that means cutting a Chanel jacket, designing a Fendi fur coat, snapping a high-fashion photograph or discussing 16th century Spanish philosophy in one of his five languages, the world of less expensive clothes is new territory for him.

But in the consumer's mind, nothing trumps job security. Reuben Kuruvila, 26, of Atlanta, plans to spring a fur coat on his wife. "I really can't tell what the economy will do," he says, but adds that he expects a decent raise after completing management training at the hotel company where he works...
