The only thing I'm curious about is how the "care and cleaning" instructions might read.

This appears to be yet another "solution in search of a problem" fashion item, although I have no doubt they'll be flying off the racks.

 

Hair-raising fashion! Would YOU pay £2,499 for a fur coat made from male CHEST HAIR- - Mail Online

The coat was commissioned by milk drink for men, Wing Co., as a protest against the widespread 'manning-down' of British men, typified by clean-shaven chests and emasculating fashion. 

The coat, which features over one million strands of male chest hair, took a team of fashion designers over 200 hours to create and carries a hefty price tag of £2,499.

Whilst this may be the first garment to be designed using chest hair, human hair has been a popular and wacky choice of material for years.

A Croatian company, Artidjana, once designed an entire dress with 165ft of blonde human hair.

And Thelma Madine's Nico dressmakers, which has featured on Channel Four's Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, created a wedding dress made from human hair, which took over 300 hours to make and  weighed 15 stone.

That coat would go well with a shirt made from belly button lint.

There's one tiny problem. It's the ugliest piece of garbage I've ever seen.

I wouldn't wear the thing if they paid me £2,499.

It looks as if it would shed worse than my cats. It's sloppy and homeless looking. Ugh!

This should be in the entry for ‘irony’ in a pictorial dictionary. I think the sight of a male model with a hairless chest wearing a coat made of the chest hair of more hirsute men pretty much defines it.
