Robert Herrick:
Clothes Do But Cheat and Cozen Us
Away with silks, away with lawn,
I’ll have no scenes, or curtains drawn:
Give me my mistress, as she is,
Dressed in her nak’d simplicities:
For as my heart, e’er so mine eye
Is won with flesh, not drapery.
McLaren / Westwood, via 17th Century writer Thomas Fuller
McLaren then fed this Rousseau-ish notion into Bow Wow Wow
He was only in it for the Manet
