For anyone who has ever watched informercials, you've seen the Snuggie, that bizarre blanket with sleeves comme sweatsuit designed (and I use the term loosely) for vegging out in front of the tv. To paraphrase Jay Leno, are we Americans getting so fat that we need to wear blankets instead of clothes? I myself am a bit weirded out by the whole concept. Yesterday, I think I saw a woman sporting a Snuggie driving a Smartcar on the 101 Freeway. Crazy.
So, imagine my disdain when I saw Snuggie hosted a show at Fall/Winter Fashion Week in NY! What next? A spread in "Vogue?" I clicked on the story and saw a plethora of animal prints. This doesn't surprise me one bit. Cheetah and zebra prints are like the fashion apex of the Walmart/QVC crowd. (Please pardon my fashionista snobbery.)
And if that wasn't enough, Snuggies for "man's best friend" were also shown on the runway. I have to tell you, my Maltese, Yvette Brigitte Bardot will NOT be sporting a Snuggie this season!
