The latest in fashion: Moobs
2004-10-14
Want to keep abreast of the latest in male fashion? Well, the message from Milan is to say goodbye to Mr Macho and hello to Mr Androgyny. The provocative direction — featuring male models with fake breasts under figure-hugging knitwear — was sent down the catwalk by outrageous British designer Vivienne Westwood in the mens' autumn winter 2003 shows held this week. And while the effect may look outrageous today, fashion commentators reckon Sydney men may just end up adopting it — in a few years' time.
"How many years?"
"About 9,000, I think..."

#8  Guys,

1) this is from way, way long ago, fall of 2002 maybe, and

2) it's from a Sydney fashion show. That's in Australia.

I'd direct you here, but the link to the Telegraph article is broken anyway.

#5  Drew Carey show -- his buddy volunteers for a clinical test of implants. To quote a favorite line from that episode:

"That takes care of the heebies, but I still got the jeebies."
