You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™
Clothes made out of food.
DATELINE: PARIS
Once I saw Lady Ga Ga lace up a side of pastrami, I knew the rest of the fashion industry wouldn’t be far behind. I was right.
According to published reports, Salon du Chocolat at the Porte de Versailles in Paris showcased a fashion show where models wore clothes made of chocolate.
“Who you wearing? Donna Karan?”
“No, HERSHEY!”
CRAZY.
Where do you wear a chocolate gown?
The Oscars? The Emmy’s? The international coca convention?
Wherever it is, it’d better be air conditioned, and you better hope they aren’t taping America’s Biggest Loser nearby.
Do you wear wax paper undergarments with your chocolate garb? Do your clothes say lick after wearing? How do you go to the bathroom wearing a Mars Bar?
So many questions when you wear chocolate flavored clothes.
I have always liked my pants to have a certain degree of cloth to them. I guess I’m old fashioned. I like zippers and buttons and stitches. I am not sure that sitting in caramel coated goo is the feel I’m going for.
Lady Ga Ga sensationalized a dress you can buy in the meat department, but outside of Planet
Ga Ga, is it even worth replicating?
Do you want to wear a smock that can give you salmonella? Do you market your meat vest with a box of Arm and Hammer? When you take off your Salami flavored pants, do you donate them to the local soup kitchen? Was PETA consulted before
Ga Ga donned the meat?
According to the NY Daily News, Patrice Chapon designed an over-sized, magnificent hoop skirt of chocolate that was modeled by Irene Salvador. Nubia Esteban modeled a chocolate fashion experiment in which she played a bird in a chocolate cage, complete with chocolate wings and a chocolate bustier and short skirt that was designed by Bailey’s and Carole Dichampt.
So is Patrice Chapon a clothing designer or a French Pastry Chef?
I don’t know, and I guess it doesn’t matter.
If people are willing to wear chocolate, then the world’s problems are not so great.
Who cares about universal health care when your shoes are made of Snickers Bars?
Why worry about Afghanistan when jelly beans are the rhinestones in your Manuel sequined suit.
How many foreclosures Bank of America rubber stamped is irrelevant compared to Heidi Klum’s M and M skirt.
Hey Charlie Sheen, is your escort wearing Salt WaterTaffy?
It’s just crazy!!
