The Sartorialist. Sartorial. Sartorially speaking.
Please, can we stop the mad overuse of this word? I think I read it in editorial about four times as relates to the upcoming Sex and the City 2. Just saw it about twice in one back issue of GQ (Johnny Depp on the cover).
I'm all about punching up boring text with a well-placed $5 word, but really, the use of "sartorial" is getting out of hand. It's catching me unawares everywhere. In a gossip blog, in women's mags, in men's mags. It's not even a nice word. It's got slithery, sarcastic cadence. It doesn't look nice either...all those squiggly S's.
Sartorial. Just say no.

Could not agree more. This is driving me up the wall.
It's like people have just discovered the word and are now using it in every other fashion related sentence to make up for lost time!!
