...The Gap diagnosed the problem and responded by filling its stores this season with surfer-style apparel in graphic floral prints. It is far from the only retailer to suddenly decide to "banish the black," if one may resuscitate an overquoted line from "Funny Face," and to bring back clothing that is patterned, colored, playful and exuberant. After years of bad gags about black being the new black, the streets are unexpectedly populated with people wearing trippy stripes, flowered graphics or clothes the colors of Bazooka or the walls of the playhouse where Pee-wee Herman held court.

And yet, the present theme of the two Gaps I walk past on my way to work are "Black and White" and the windows are filled with mannequins dressed in - you betcha - lots of white a black.
