Everyone is ripping the piss out of this comically unflattering (and expensive) dress

Who is this for?

DO YOU EVER see a garment so obviously unflattering that you wonder who on Earth would purchase it or how a shop could have the temerity to try flog it in the first place?

Last week, writer Doree Shafrir stumbled upon this dress (read: sack) from the brand Creatures of Comfort.

“bless everyone who is pretty enough, skinny enough, and rich enough to wear this dress,” she wrote.

In fairness, this dress would suit approximately 1% of women, right?

The dress retails for $450 and is described on the website as:

The Creatures of Comfort Sequoia Dress is a partial button up dress with a drop shoulder and gathered sleeve. Cut from midweight, Japanese weathercloth with a crisp, cool hand in army green.

$450 for a dress that the woman in American Gothic would think is dowdy.

Following Shafrir’s tweet, the internet pounced on the dress.

And, oh, was it enjoyable.

$450 to look like you’re living in a dystopian nightmare.

Er, we’ll pass.

At least it inspired some excellent puns, eh?

Not a total dead loss.
