new thing in women's clothing that i think is ugly as sin...

[welfareloser]

has anyone else seen these? the minnit the weather cooled, they popped up everywhere...

it's a sweater, except knee-length or so and shaped like a bathrobe, right down to the hood and the belt. i'm sure i'll get used to them just like i do every other new fashion, but right now i think they look sloppy and silly and not the least bit attractive.

blech. that's my verdict.

[Kim]

OMG yes, I was just thinking the same thing yesterday. Yuck!

[Anck Su Namun]

They are called dusters. I like them except they always seen to come in brown or grey. I want a black one.

Not sure exactly how Gotapex e-mailing works but I sent you two e-mail messages and included my e-mail address directly just in case.
Thanks! :)

My friend and I have been noticing these things everywhere. Its insane, we started calling them capes, or bathrobes. They have some interesting ones...like denim, weird wool stuff, I think there was leather one, wonder who came up with this idea? They're like bathrobes but thinner material and with a hood thats never used =P.

[welfareloser]

hehe, i forgot to check my gotapex email account... anyway - i just sent it to you using the reply form... so let me know if you dint get it...

I wore a $10 bathrobe to school today just to make the statement about how stupid this is. People were like why are you wearing a bathrobe??? And I was like, "It's the new style, look the girls started it, and now it's our turn" it was funny as hell.

i bought one pair of capris once. normally, i can't stand them. officially they were capris, but i am short enough so they fit me like regular pants!

i've seen it, and it ain't pretty.

[Kim]

I'm pretty sure my husband would chop off his own feet before he would wear capri pants...no offense meant to any men here who wear them.

those bathrobes are friggin ugly. sheesh. i haven't seen one on a person yet though.

capris on guys is just wrong. i see that a lot with all the congressional lackeys around here. they have their capris, their gap bags across their chest, yapping on their cell phone. blue button down. it's like a uniform here for interns. :puke:

gimme my jeans, t-shirt and smelly old sandals and i'll be happy :)

nice statement, chrisMG. i got my friend to go to school as santa claus one year though. he got thrown in the trash :heh:

ha ha ha ha
sounds like my sister :)

[Windsor]

I thought bermuda shorts were something different than capris? I had always thought capris were a female thing...:confused:

[jujubees]

As far as I can tell, dusters make tall people look even TALLER (like they need it?!).

I'm boycotting dusters until they design one that makes us shorties appear taller, you know, "FREE stilts sewn into the jacket!" Yeah, that's the ticket! :D

[Anck Su Namun]

Was glancing through a Nordstrom catalog and saw a duster type sweater thing that was really thick and long with a giant cloth belt like a bathrobe. Gag! I like the thinner material ones that look like actual sweaters, only a little longer.

[Windsor]

I think the thin ones are probably far overpriced. Just buy a bathrobe, like anyone'll tell the difference :).

[brainsmile]

looks like it is something that could have been worn on the original star trek
