Nip slips puns aside (except for just that one), this is probably one of the most sinister dresses appearing at Paris Fashion Week. British designer Rachel Freire collected 3,000 cow and yak (exotic!) nipples to create um, clothes.
Freire says she simply picked up the various nipples from tanneries where they would otherwise be discarded. Yeah! So it’s like, recycling! With nipples! To make clothes! I’m sorry… my forced enthusiasm still isn’t getting me into this one.
Anyone wanna take a stab at which celebrity (besides Lady Gaga) will be the first to don this boobtastic piece? No, really, let’s throw some guesses out. [via Gawker]

Um… Angie Jolie?
She seems like the type…
I read “nipples” and I thought baby bottle nips… Not….REAL ones…. O_o ….at least they aren’t human nips, recovered from the morgue or something. lol

How is this any different from wearing leather? It’s all animal skin.
guest
I… I dunno.
guest
Not a lot of things gross me out, but these… I don’t know. I definitely would not want to be the model wearing this dress…
guest
WTF?! That’s not a dress!

I wasn’t aware they saved the nipples off animals, let alone had a place people could pick them up at random.
guest

My nipples hurt just reading about this. Seriously.
guest
Wow.. well.. someone was really “nipple-inspired.”
guest
Why is it considered anymore odd than leather? I’m confused about what the issue is.
guest
thats creepy….
guest
Gross!! I can’t stand these designers who want to be more awkward and weird than others.
I don’t know how the model felt but imagining those tailors who had to put them all together… EEWWW!
guest
that’s disgusting!
guest
Someone inform Lady Gaga of this dress immediately.
guest
i think i just puked a little bit in my mouth.
guest
I think Nicki Minaj will wear it first and try to one up Gaga.
guest
um
guest
lol, could you imagine being the model for this dress coming to the photo shoot and seeing that…
guest
i’m seriously surprised no one has mentioned ed gein yet
guest
@violentscribbles@xanga - I know, that’s what I was thinking.
guest
Wow that’s freaking disgusting.
guest
@articulate_silence@xanga - Probably
guest
Like I said before….these kinds of designers do not care about clothes or art. They just want to one-up each other in ridiculousness, and see how many models they can force to wear this crap.
On a more serious note, this is totally disrespectful to those animals…like it wasn’t bad enough that they were slaughtered for something else, let’s abuse their leftover body parts to make something wasteful and stupid.
I will never, ever understand the fashion industry…
guest
@articulate_silence@xanga - haha exactly what I was going to say. Her or Katy Perry.
guest
Strange..but, they actually do look lovely..like flowers. Yet, how would they smell?????
guest
@Journeyto115@xanga - That is exactly what I was thinking!
