    Very interesting! But I wonder at what seems to be the entirely haphazard way they compiled the list, since some seem to be on the list because they're bestsellers, and some just because…they were there? I mean, is Jo Malone Orange Blossom flying of the shelves in SF, or did they just add it there because she was in SF at the time? Still, a good mix. I liked the idea of hordes of Russian girls hunting down bottles of D&G Light Blue.

    Yes, and for that matter, they are bestsellers at the one store that Time bothered to contact, right? I guess there probably isn't any quick, easy way to find out what women are wearing in different cities, but still, I doubt they sent a correspondent to Rio — although I would have volunteered.
