Finally.

A fashion designer has made a dress that real women can wear to the grocery store, the play group, the PTA meeting, or on date-night with hubby.

It looks like a funeral shroud that one would wear when going to carousel.

Very versatile garment. Rappels rain, protects from harmful UVA rays, holds parking spaces, and even marks out-of-bounds for pick-up football games!

Good desert gear, Jon? I am trying to picture you on a patrol wearing this get-up.

"What the fuck is THAT? Is that the ghost of Hamlet's dad?"

"Nah - it's just Jon doing his patrol."

"Oh. Cool."

egad. It's the high-fashion version of a burqa.

Or maybe a feminized version of a Dalek.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: fashion designers* hate women.


(*with a few exceptions, of course).

OMG! That barber poll from outer space has swallowed Red!

I think I saw that on an episode of H.R. Pufnstuf once.

As a counterpoint to this ridiculous get-up -

now HERE is a dress.

If I had the cash, I would have a dressmaker make me that dress exactly with my measurements. I ADORE that dress.

After looking at that first picture, a soft, feminine voice keeps repeating "Derelicte" in my head over and over.

hahahahahaha

Dude, where's my tablecloth?

Posted by: Lisa at July 6, 2006 7:51 PM

I would enjoy seeing you in both those dresses. The first one for the humor, and the second...just for the experience. That is a great dress.

Crickey, was she in a party tent that collapsed?

"It was terrible... I heard the magician cry out... there was cake everywhere!"

Either that, or it is now the custom to be married while wearing shower curtains.

Ricki - my thought exactly.

She looks sort of like a badminton shuttlecock.

Posted by: dorkafork at July 7, 2006 12:38 AM

oooh how embarrasing for her. They forgot the hole for her head to go thru. I hate when that happens.

Eeee! I saw that Mouret blue dress and wanted it immediately. Not that I wear dresses or have occasions to wear dresses, but still. It would look beautiful hanging in my closet. As for the floaty headdress, it reminds me of the blue alien/opera singer from The Fifth Element. "The stones...are....in....ME." hahahahaha

... and in a pinch, it allows one to be fired out of a 16 inch naval gun.
