Meaning
This points to fashion as a field of multiple identities rather than one fixed ideal. It can be read as an argument for variety, for letting different women, moods, and social roles appear side by side. The hotel-elevator image gives the idea a cinematic feel, and it lands in a discussion about a collection meant to suggest range instead of one uniform type.
