John at Greenbriar Picture Shows has some terrific images up of premiere parties. I love the two chicks with the massive fur muffs. hahahaha You'd be splashed with blood by PETA freaks if you tried to wear those now!! I know it's great that we're more health-conscious now and everything - but I look at pictures like these, and you know everyone has a cigarette case in their pocket, and everyone is boozing it up - and it seems a bit more RAW - even though it is WAY more glamorous than today ... I would love to go back in time. And look for a blurry image of Clark Gable in the background of one of the photos, cigarette dangling from his lips. Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about. Decadence.

I think you can su it up this way. Back in the day, decadence and classiness lived together in wonderful, swanky harmony.
Today, "decadent" is often synonymous with "trashy" (cough-- parishilton--cough)
