Dude Looks Like a Lady

I've always liked clothes that are androgynous; the trouble is, sometimes I mistake androgyny for plain old ladies' wear. Hence that time I went to a Patrick Wolf concert in gold lamé meggings and a rubber tank top. Ok, that's a lie. It was ZZ Top. I'm not cool enough for Patrick. Sigh.

Anyway, this right here is what I'm talking about!

It's a fucking romper, people! In shiny, shiny fabric, with breathtakingly angled shoulders. The sandals suck - surely this nightmare ought to be over by now, rather than infecting the feet of unsuspecting adonises (adoni?), no? And I am just never going to get with short trouser legs - which is not to say I don't own short trousers, because I do, because I spent years in the wilderness and had no friends and regularly ate cake batter for lunch and made bears out of belly button fluff.

But the part above the waist - I plotzed. It's from the General Idea by Bumsuk SS10 NYFW show, and there are other pictures where it's clear that the fabric has a broad, indented check, which I love also. I just spent half and hour fantasising about all the fabulous places I would wear this - 1. the library, 2. the graduate centre, 3. the library. Oh yeah. That bitch in Linguistics rocking her Annie Hall won't even know what hit her. BOOM.

Check out General Idea here, but be warned - the site will hurt you. This little number, or the nearest thing to it, costs like 400,000 Korean Won, which is £240, or two week's rent, to me.

And here's a little Aerosmith:
