How do you eat ribs in that thing?

Memo to fashion show staff:

I blame only myself. Some of you TOLD me we should print out detailed dressing instructions, but I guess I just gave our models too much credit.

Now, you take that lovely dress with the dramatic flared high collar in back. Quite regal looking, when worn properly.

Unfortunately, Rita put it on backwards, which meant a) folks in the audience laughed until Pellegrino came out their nose, and b) tragically, Rita couldn’t see the end of the runway.

Okay, so we need to make sure this back-front confusion gets sorted out by this afternoon’s show, when all of our dresses are backless…

That has got to be the most stupid, STUPID thing I’ve seen. Why do I waste my time following these links?
…because of the clever tag lines.

Hey, this design could be very practical — if for example, the woman has worse-looking teeth than the jack-o-lantern on the front porch. (If you’re married to such a woman, you may rest assured that you’re a redneck.)

Also practical if you missed your mouth with your lipstick this evening

Perfect for the girl whose parents refused to spring for braces.
