ummm…I am not convinced that it is so bad. In fact if one ditched the cape and turned it matt silver, it would make a cool industrial looking ski suit, one that might be used for downhill racing. imo.

Agusta, there are people in your country who lived under Facism, and who had to deal with real stormtroopers.

You do the millions of dead a disservice and make yourself out to be an ignorant and petulant twit to call this sort of comment from Manolo “facist”.

I don’t expect you to apologize, as your kind generally doesn’t.

if manolo were as much of a talent hack and had as crappy a website as augusto has, he too might be so asinine.

see, but it’s all about the symbolism of the thing. right?

look closely… the leather drape, that represents half-melted snow, with patches for the dead grass underneath to stick out. my lawn looked exactly the same early last spring.

the ridges on the costume are meant to remind us of the moguls you jump on a complicated ski run. and the model’s makeup shows you what happens when you hit a tree after taking a few of the moguls badly.

and the color, to remind us of the sensible old reminder: don’t eat yellow snow.

i would wear this! well, no. but i would make someone else wear this, if they were very drunk and i didn’t like them very much.

I am sorry Augusto, but I do not believe that this outfit is suitable for wear in Cortina or anywhere else in this galaxy. Unless of course, you are designing for Verla from Lost in Space . . . .

The Happy Traveler was visiting the superb lovliness of Cortina just last week and nary a strange outfit (read: Stretch Couture) was seen. Granted, it’s not ski season but nevertheless, only normal apparel was in evidence.

The outfit in question puts me to mind of Natasha Henstridge’s character in Species…

Miss Nell says, if this outfit were to be worn as part of a skiing ensemble, the model, or indeed any wearer, would surely come to the disastrous (if colorful) end.

What the Norma finds truly amazing is that someone could make a thing like that, yet have no sense of humor. Well, no, on second thought, I suppose it’s a prerequisite.

it makes the model look fat - and if the model looks fat, imagine what it would look like on a mortal?
