Crochet Crimes: The crochet monokini
MEMO
To: The Fashion Police
From: Katie
Subject: Wow
"Have your eye bleach ready!"
* * *
Wow, indeed. And "eye bleach". We like that. In fact, we think it should be standard issue for everyone on our fashion force.
And we should say again: there's an idea that goes around that The Fashion Police hate all forms of crochet. No, no, no! We don't hate crochet at all: unless, of course, it's bright orange, and has been added to a bikini, in an apparent bid to make the wearer look like a fluorescent spider came along and spun a web between boobs and briefs while she was sunbathing. That kind of crochet, we hate.
What happens when it gets wet? I don’t think wool comes in water-proof>
Fran, I don’t think its there for getting wet (ie swimming) But I can imagine the tan lines too, so apart from being a hideous garment it is enitirely useless too!
ack! is it just me or is she also suffering from bobbleheaditis in addition to wearing the worst use of crochet hooks almost ever?
poor poor aubrey o’day look alike
Did they have to make her pose like she was in a workshop calendar?
I’m just picturing the tan lines that come with a bathing suit like that…
Is it just me or is none of that waterproof? I can’t quite tell, I just bleached my eyes.
Ugh! Something about this just says “costume” to me. I don’t think i’d like it, even without the crochet. I guess you can at least give them credit for being daring?
