Welcome to the latest: shown at the fall & winter 2003 men's fashions by a Brit designer, and taken seriously by an Aussie fashion reporter. Yes, he's wearing falsies.

"The look is controversial but we may see it in some diluted manner in stores," said one retailer's director of fahions.

Chance this particular fashion will be seen on me: 0.00000%

I thought it was important, in this case, to work out the probability to several significant digits.

My own boobies are big enough that I don't need falsies.

Strangely, from a fashion standpoint, I'm finding the man-tits far less disturbing than the sleeve on that turtleneck. What is with that??? Too long and all rumply?

Ah. Screw it. My own idea of high fashion involves the bluejeans without the holes and a teeshirt worn over a turtleneck. (and I have gotten myself a job where I can dress like this at work and not get reprimanded for it)

Two thoughts:

1. This is a job for Kramer and the "bro".

2. I tried (admittedly, not very hard) to imagine how this might show up "diluted" and I did not succeed.

A stunning statement in men's fashion, destined to blur the distinctions between art and clothing design...

Huh? What? Where...where am I?

I think I was channeling Mr. Blackwell, there. What? He's not dead? Well, that can be fixed.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-20-2003, 09:17 AM

Why???

Griff · 01-20-2003, 09:58 AM

Wolfs right, the sweater is somehow creepier than the mansere.

Thadius · 01-20-2003, 02:19 PM

So the representation in womans fashion would be ... open shirt, hary chest, medallion.. I think I may have dated her already.

Jag opened a can o' wupass on him before. He's just not gettin it.

smed · 01-20-2003, 09:18 PM

I usually just lurk....but something has to be said here.

This model...and ANYONE who had ANYTHING to do with this picture should be drawn & quartered !! PERIOD.

I'm completely comfortable with homosexuals, transvestites, freaks and wierdos........whatever......live your life as you please.
But this is just utterly fucking disgusting.

I'm completely repulsed.

juju · 01-21-2003, 12:49 AM

Hmmm.. are you sure your comfortable with all those things? How can you be completely comfortable with transvestites and still be repulsed by this picture?

It's very telling that you group homosexuals and transvestites into the same set as freaks and weirdos. If you were really completely cool with them, why are they so weird and freakish?

Also, what is it with people who spell out the word 'period'? It's meant to be a little dot that puncuates your sentence! It does not make your point any more valid.

e.g.:
<blockquote>The moon is made of green cheese. PERIOD! End of discussion.</blockquote>
See? I look like a fool, don't I? Just accept my logic because I spelled out my redundant punctuation.

Actually, comma, this guy should have spelled out, open quote, "EXCLAMATION POINT EXCLAMATION POINT," closed quote. Nice (capitol N) point, (comma) though. Period.
