The fitting room is a red bulb on a stand behind a thick pink velvet curtain. No one would look at it today and think, “Gucci.” What does it take for a time to be different? I tried on a navy Comme des Garçons skirt suit from the late ’90s ($250). We decided it looked “too Miranda,” then shrieked because Cynthia Nixon is running for governor of New York. The store hours are written on the door in neon marker, the “O” a smiley face, the “U” just a smile.
