Textured, for the pleasure of the female.
Wait – didn’t I see these characters in Cirque du Soleil?
“Does this make my thighs look fat?”
“What has it got in its pocketses?”
I’d kill for a big bag of gummy bears right now.
Geez, I thought my saddlebags were bad.
Gack. Please see my previous pontifications about designers and their inflated egos. (Say. Do you suppose that’s what those bulges are for? Storing ego?) No, I guess not.
What I started out to say was, I want to sue. I invented this look way (way) back while playing tennis and stuffing balls in my shorts and shirtsleeves. (Now now, get your mind out of the …) And I don’t want to hear about prior art.
Now we know where Michael Jackson has been hiding.
The taste is all in the mouth.
Fashion for the ugly
One-bagger, two-bagger, …
How many bag-equivalents are these outfits? Total coverage, no apparent apertures. Can’t even see the *eyes*, for bog’s sake. The *window to the soul*!
Oh, right. Nevermind.
Uh, call girls for the Blue Men Group? Oh my!
I kind of like it. Of course, it’s not fashion. Fashion is the intersection of art, craft, and yes – practicality. Art and taste are not the same thing. (Don’t get me wrong – taste and fashion are wonderful things, and they are of course the reason I read the Manolo with his incomparably sage judgement on these matters.)

And desertwind, I saw the gummy thing, too. They are like gummy mannequins.
i have to believe that an artist would have made some effort to find a better, smoother filler-material than wadded-up newspaper.
but at least the models were allowed to cover up their faces, to avoid humiliating recognition.
condom avec les panniers. pourquoi?
Someday the full-body condom will be available in all stores- and in fun flavors like raspberry and orange, as seen here.
How can she even see in that thing?
It is both ugly and uninteresting.
I saw a very strange opera years & years ago called “Help, help the Globolinks.” These are globolinks, I’m sure of it.
The orange one looks like she has stuffed her gardening hats in her leotard.

Thank you, Diva, for helping me clean my keyboard. Most amusing! :-)
Somewhere in the great beyond, Leigh Bowery is laughing.
