Frock and Awe: Chicken or Human Tampon?
Filed under: Fashion
This one may be the best I've found yet. I present the latest installment of the Frock and Awe Campaign.
At first glance, I thought it was a baby chicken. This dress, all oblong and covered in what appears to be feathers, makes the model look like Chicken Little. And while a falling sky would improve the look of this dress, it's easy the most bizarre frock I've seen so far. Shapeless, white, and frothy, like a huge cotton ball.
And once the cotton-ball image jumped into my head, all I could picture was a huge tampon. Imagine walking down the aisle as a Human Tampon Bride? Flushed with love (ha! the puns!), ready to tie the knot, and highly absorbent, the Tampon Bridal Gown could be the big hit of the season. Or at least the victim of several ill-penned puns.
Gently borrowed from the 2005 image files on Ain't Chicken, this fashion anomaly from a Fashion Week gone by couldn't be left to the archives.
