What Not to Wear

August 7, 2007 by WendyB

There’s been a bit of excitement over a post at Fashionista.com (When your post is picked up by Jezebel.com, you’re practically the new Robin Givhan, right?) Anyway, this reminded me of a time in my corporate life when several people who worked for me complained about a guy who came in wearing a muscle shirt that exhibited a LOT of body hair. He worked with my team but reported to another manager so I went over to have a chat with her…only to find she was wearing a belly shirt. Admittedly, they were in the art department, so they were given a bit of leeway, but still! If I recall correctly, I managed to tear my eyes away from the manager’s belly long enough to pass along the message about the hairy armpits.

    It’s too bad this guy didn’t meet Hedi Slimane – he loooves a good muscle tee.

    Wendy I know who you are talking about. I think that model was North African or maybe Ethopian. She had a short Mia Farrow crop. I will think about her name(It was long and she only went by one name) and look her up.

    Oh, thank you, Chic Noir. I do think we are talking about the same person. I have been Googling all kinds of weird phrases to try to find her name but so far no luck!
