Say No to the Poncho!

Manolo says, the peoples at the buyers Bergdorf Goodman, they have not gotten the message, that the fashion mania for the poncho it is indeed over.

Behold! The $3,000 ugly fringed poncho!

P.S. Many thanks to the Manolo’s internet friend the Kristin for the link.

    All the ponchos should be sent to Russia!




  2. Gigolo Kitty Says:

    Not just the poncho - that drab gray look like prison wear! Hmm….The Martha Stewart Poncho…..




  3. Johnnycake Says:

    The Cake of Johnny will never forget setting herself on fire while wearing the poncho in the 7th grade in the 70s when the fringe brushed across the hot burner of the stove as she reached. A lesson to all!




  4. La BellaDonna Says:

    Aaaieee! La BellaDonna commiserates with the half-baked Johnnycake! She also suggests that for the safety, thermal underwear is the better choice whilst cooking, preferably not oneself.

    She also begs the Blackbird for a little compassion; the peoples of Russia, have they not suffered enough?

    no more negative! show me the gorgeous, drop-dead, absolutely unaffordabe beautiful materialistic things instead…




  6. Annalucia Says:

    The Annalucia, she rather likes the shade of gray pictured, and of course cashmere is a lovely fabric. What a crime and a horror to make it into such a hideous garment.




  7. Esther Says:

    The cringe, it did appear upon my face when I looked at the hideousness.




  8. Emily Says:

    Manolo, you must make them take the No Poncho Pledge!




  9. jrochest Says:

    And the jrochest, she thinks this is a dreadful thing to do to a lovely pair of wool pants.

    I work in retail and we are selling ponchos, much to my dismay. It does not want to go away. Really now, it’s a garmet that make the wearer look like an amputee with both arms severed and I don’t know what’s desirable about that.




  11. Elvira Says:

    Totally hideous and only $3,000. Did not the Manolo recently show us some of the boots with the similar description? If this is the fashion trend, the Elvira is not amused, although her accountant might be were she to be so foolish as to attempt such a purchase.




  12. alvalucia Says:

    The Martha, she is now spending 3000 of the illegally derived dollars.




  13. Kimberly Says:

    I don’t know what’s worse - the poncho that says “beached whale,” the flat 1980’s hairstyle or the hideous shoes that really should never have been put with gray pants. I know something worse, though. http://www.cult45.fsbusiness.co.uk/featuresjackie.html
    Appetizing, no?




  14. Sweetzi Says:

    “If anybody is mad enough to make these items and can send in photographic evidence, a handsome prize will be yours.” Kimberely, I think that fashion is becoming a practical course in the School of Psychotics




  15. pbird Says:

    Not the worst poncho ever seen. At least it is one color.
