Anime is sexy!

Just a reminder that the manga/anime look is now a complete fashion era. From the Observer’s fashion page:
At socialite Allison Sarofim’s annual Halloween party last Saturday, Oct. 25, the theme was Japanese anime. Female dancers in purple wigs and revealing electro-violet garments swayed to the music on pedestals. A young woman wearing skimpy lingerie and a giant head of a Japanese comic-book character with fake hair reaching down to her rear was placed atop the mantelpiece and instructed to stay put. Another woman in a metallic unitard and extraterrestrial headgear walked around with a mini-buffet of Japanese candy. And the male waiters, passing out just-made sushi and cocktails, were topless.

Unrelated: Socialite Kim Kardashian went as Wonder Woman. Looks good from the front.

From the back, that is some Amazon junk in a trunk. I cannot lie.

Looks *great* from the back.
I got semi-involved in an online discussion this weekend about Kardashian’s Wonder Woman costume. I found it amusing that most of the people involved asserted she was “trashy-ing” up the character, despite actually wearing more clothing than Diana usually does.

perhaps they were referring to the person wearing the outfit, not the amount of thread the outfit had…..

Kardashian snapped someone’s neck? Was it a Baldwin?

I give it three thumbs up.

it’s cool, I have no problem with it, but I just wish someone I respected would wear the Wonder Woman suit.

And suddenly, Joel McHale has a joke written for him.

Wow. That looks like something you’d see balancing on a seal’s nose.

The thing about Wonder Woman is that she’s supposed to walk around in a corset, knickers and boots while being wholesome - which is why no one has ever looked the part better than Lynda Carter.
