When I was in Paris I went to an exhibition of up-and-coming young artists at the Fondation Cartier. I was reading a statement by a 24 year-old Japanese photographer whose work I quite liked and she mentioned that she noticed the ageing of her body now that it takes longer for the skin on her ankles to get rid of the impressions left when she takes her socks off.
It's true! I looked at my ankles forty minutes after I'd taken my socks off and the traces were still there! At 24, the decay of ageing reveals itself in mysterious ways.
I read some time ago that a brand of Japanese jeans had made jeans for women which somehow contained slow-release anti-cellulite cream or something in the material. Perhaps they should branch out into socks.
(I'm laughing already at the thought of you all checking your ankles after reading this blog.)
