12/30/2003: Chinese meat fashion

The caption says "Models display the latest Chinese designer wear during a year-end party in Beijing."

And I tried and tried to get more information, but there was none. And so this is presented to you, with no more detail. But it says all it needs to say, doesn't it?

Paging Billy...Paging Billy...

So is this supposed to be satire about wearing fur? I mean if the outside is good fashion, why not the inside?

She looks tasty.

Oh and there is this!

I guess humans can be affected by mad cow disease...

and for those who prefer fish...



At least this I would consider safe to eat!

Well, there was a meat dress that caused a lot of furor in Ottawa

And I had memories of a feminist anti beauty-contest protest. This was in Santa Cruz, CA. The protestor is Ann Simonton, who was a former fashion model. She had been a Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition cover.

I wonder what Miss Behavin did to get arrested? Certainly wearing the dress wasn't enough.

Anyone else think these models at the Bejing fashion show look a little imported?

You're late Jim. Go back to the 5th post.

Here's Miss Behavin earlier in her career in more mainstream attire.

Wow and she looks like a real woman too - normal sized butt and her boobs don't look like balloons. How long ago was that?

30 years ago.

Well, I probably should be posting this over in the "Feeling Old" thread, but I *remember* that cover.

So, she became disillusioned over the fact that her career peaked with an SI cover, eh?

Fashion is the effort by designers to make the weirdest thing that doesn't make your eyes burn. This is then toned down and copied in retail. Sometimes designers fail. Sometimes they make something not weird enough, sometimes they make your eyes burn. All thing considered, maybe the guy's doing a good job - check out how weird some other stuff seen lately on catwalks is.

Billy says it's not really meat. It's really leather made to look like meat. Ahh,....fashion.

I think the design thinking comes from the Nature and ancestors. On the other side, the avant-courier esigners want to catch eyes. In ancient time the ancestors wore the animal leather. The clothes that models wore is the mimic leather, not real meat. I can help you order one if really want to get one. Hahaha...

I saw this and pictured myself wearing a meat loincloth. Then my pit bull wandered into the room and made himself comfortable on my pillow. That made me picture the dog sniffing out said loincloth. NOT a pretty picture!

But I DO have two pounds of venison defrosting for dinner Friday night.

Any idears for preparation from those who eat venison more than once a decade?

Post over in Food and Drink to prevent thread hijacking

You do this to me because you know I'm at work don't you...

That reversal is what makes it a postmodern critique of corporatist society.

Beauty is in the eye of the beefholder....
