3. Attitude/Appreciation 8

Part 2 - Argument: Anti

Target of Evaluation

YES Says D'Argy Smith.

NO ONE ever accused Sophie Wessex of being a class fashion act.

Judgement - indicates her fashion incompetence

- Sophie

At her sartorial best, she was a pallid imitation of Princess Di.

inscribed Appreciation, if we take this as a comment on her appearance.
token (implicit Judgement) if we take this as indicating that she lacked inspiration/imagination - that she was a "copy-cat" (imitation as a form of fashion plagiarism)

- Sophie

She's never had the body, the legs

Appreciation

- Sophie

or the style (1) imagination to look as (2) stunning as Diana.

(1) Judgement - she lack the necessary intellectual resources
(2) Appreciation

1. - Sophie

2. + Princess Di

But she usually (1) passed muster well,
at least, (2) didn't offend.

1. Appreciation
2. Affect

1. + Sophie
2. + Sophie

Yesterday at Ascot, however, she appeared to have taken leave of her fashion senses.

Judgement

- Sophie

Her suit of large horizontal bands of green, orange, pink and blue interspersed with bands of raffia was topped off with an English country wedding cream high hat, complete with wide brim and flower.

(possible token of Apprecation, depending on one's fashion sense/knowledge)

You had to (1) sigh at the (2) awfulness of it all.

1. Affect
2. Appreciation

1. - outfit
2. - outfit

What on earth was she thinking when she decided 'This suit is for me'?

Judgement - reflects on Sophie's intellectual capacity

- Sophie

And what sort of person would let her walk out of a store looking like that?

Judgement - reflects on the capacity of her "advisors"

- Sophie's staff

Perhaps it's an act of rebellion that she is not prepared to lie low after her recent PR indiscretion.

Judgement

- Sophie

Who knows? But the colours certainly gave me a headache.

Appreciation

- outfit
