Right, like who is actually going to wear this? What venue might be appropriate for this ghastly fashion faux pax? It's from the "ready-to-wear" collection, as if there's any place besides the surface of Mars that would be okay to wear this.

Looks like the emporer's new clothes.
...religion has made some contributions to civilization. It helped in the early days to fix the calendar, and it caused Egyptian priests to chronicle ecplipses with such care that in time they were able to predict them. These two services I am prepared to acknowledge, but I do not know of any others

arggggggggg

if my wife came home wearing that i'd get a divorce, right after i finished laughing myself into a coma.

looks like you'd need to carry an inner-tube patch kit if you went out on the town wearing that thing!

Sometimes Designers put pieces for artistic expression, and  sometimes in an ensemble, one item is actually only supposed to be for wide mass production.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that this one won't be mass produced. Plus, there just aren't that many people who have a closet big enough to store it in.
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

Its not that bad.[/DIV]Think of how many smiles you will bring about, heard of therapy fashion? But personally I would add more colour.

That's the same outfit I usually wear when I play Naked Twister®.

Some of those designers are basket cases.

That orange one is ghastly!  It looks as though the model has a bad problem with cellulite.
Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

They're dreadful, kitten..........I'm wondering what their point is.  I guess I've never understood that part of the 'fashion' world.  (nor am I sure I want to)  [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c022.gif" border=0]
