Why do models look like they spent the last few months in a concentration camp?

I like the one in the HOH shirt - she’s pretty. But I would have to fatten her up for a few weeks on good American home cooking!!!!

It’s a fashion statement like Pirates of the Caribbean meets the Highlanders meets Rudolf the Reindeer.

Actually, I think ancient Celts wore antlers as a symbol of rank. Must have been tough getting back in the cave or hut.

The models would be kind of cute if they didn't look like victims of malnutrition.

The clothing?

B***
F******
Ugly.

My own theory is that most designers of Haute Coutre - or whatever the hell its called - are woman hating male homosexuals. They release their hatred by putting ridiculous clothing on starved young females.

Guess that’s where “horny” came from. The guy couldn’t get back into his hut or cave to his wife and he was wearing those horns.

Vikings were smarter - they used smaller horns but they were still horny.

Wearing horns or antlers has traditionally been a symbol that a man is a cuckold, i.e. that his wife is unfaithful and he is unaware of it.

Say, that's a pretty good theory. Because I have to tell you if the chick with the antlers ever walked into a function I was attending I'd need to change my pants because I'd have wet them from laughing so hard.

Ew! They mixed several plaids together. How awfully frenetic. Yuk.

My wife tells me they don't go with camo. (You could have knocked me over with a feather.)

I never cease to be amazed at the hideous configurations demented designers can achieve with simple fabrics.

As for the ladies, well that's no way to treat the refugees from a sweatshop explosion!

Get those poor lassies into some jeans and t-shirts and feed 'em fer Pete's sake!!
