I dragged out my suit the other day so I could dress up and see how I looked in it without a binder, and my dad asked if I was going out to Le Monocle. I had no idea what he was referencing, which he reveled in, but apparently Le Monocle was a Parisian lesbian nightclub in the 1920′s and 30′s. The name came from the then-fashion of wearing a monocle to signify your gayness – a trend I think should come back. The photos from it are amazing:
The nightclub closed in the 1940′s with Nazi occupation.
