is there a male tuxedo version with as cod peice?

The photoshopped version on their Web site is actually very pretty - and it is a very pretty dress in general. Those panels just weren't thought out well.

Hey Jim, look at the labia(s?) on that one!

Why, are vaginas bad or something?

@tc4b: Not big ones like that.

@Vanilla5:

Wait, they can't just show a Photoshopped version online and then send you the vulva version when you buy it, can they?

Shouldn't the website be "shining a light on the box?"

How odd to be offered by Light in the 'Box'

To be honest, I like outies.

I find it hard to believe that at no point between concept and reality no one looked at this and thought 'Wait a minute. . . .'

@WarOtter: The company is a front for Sisterhood of the Ginormous Vagina. Someone accidentally mixed one of their oh-so-secret event costumes in with the products.

This is a not-so-subtle clue to their prom dates as to where the clitoris is located.

@JulesNoctambule:

I wonder if this was actually the Photoshopped version and was their April Fool's joke.

Ready ... aim ... FIRE!

It would be perfect for attending a performance of the Vagina Monologues.

I'm glad the above comments are joking about this.

Alex seems hell-bent on connecting this to the ridiculous complaints about "overly sexy" clothes.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If people don't like the way a dress, or shirt, or whatever looks, don't buy it. The idea that Light in the Box is somehow corrupting us by offering a product for sale is ludicrous.

Also, I'll point out that phallic symbols are all over the place in our culture and are never given a second thought. Apparently a vagina is obscene and a penis isn't.

I hope, for all of our sakes, that she doesn't get any air trapped in there. It'll be like a wind tunnel!

I can't belive some of the other dresses on that site they consider appropriate for Prom... wow I went to the wrong school I guess...

@joe18521: More likely they figured it would sell.

And it probably did/is.

@tc4b: Only because they didn't go through with the scrotal sac kilt with erect penis sash. Decided it might piss off feminists.

@HurtsSoGood: And... it's a PROM dress!

Suttle-tee: UR doin it rong.

@Rhayader: I think you've confused obscene and ridiculous.

@KyleOrton: And yes, pants with a 30" orange penis running down the leg would be just as ridiculous. I guess I don't see as many of these as you do.

@KyleOrton: Just so we can all learn something ... labia is plural, labium is the singular.

@Rhayader: Come on, read the tags I used.

@KyleOrton: Well as Alex alluded to in this post, they have posted before about "obscene" clothing. He made that connection, not me.

And I didn't say phallic clothing, I said phallic symbols.

I want to wear this while driving a vehicle adorned with Truck Nutz.

@Chumas: That made me giggle, but only because it's the same answer I usually hear when a gal starts talking to me about her CH piercing. :)

@joe18521: The "photoshopped" picture may be another view with the top of the center ruffly bit folded down instead of folded back. I think. I could be wrong.

Wow, how did photographer miss what that looked like?

@marciepooh: Well, it's not the photographer's job to deal with that - it's the dress designer and then whoever approves designs.

@Vanilla5: True. But someone should have noticed.

@tc4b: That one looks both healthy and interested. Still, any girl who wore that to the prom would NEVER live it down. I'd market the dress to the Halloween and gay bar crowds.

That'll be a hard target to miss on prom night.

@Alex Chasick:
shhh

logic will only anger it

Wow, school sure has changed -- this looks nothing like the sequined, skin-tight drag-queen dresses women wore to proms where I went to school.

@Rhayader: You're putting "obscene" in quotes, but I didn't use that word anywhere in the post. I don't think this dress is obscene. I think it's ridiculous.

@outoftheblew:
labi?

"Hey Billy! Billy! I go to my girlfriend the other day, and I say, 'I want a little *****.' She says, 'Me too! Mine's the size of a house!'"

Oh Hawkins, you silly nerdish mercenary!

@Rhayader: I'm pretty sure Alex made the connection as a joke, though.

And yeah, there are phallic symbols all over, but they do actually arouse (sorry) some comment, especially if they're placed on a man's crotch. So this feminist doesn't find the giggling particularly sexist.

She probably out to get some salve for that..

Really? Is this news? If someone wants to wear bad dress how is informing the rest of us news? I mean it's gossip sure. But isn't that what the tabloids are for?

@KyleOrton: Is that the Brazilian version?
I'd hope the Berkeley on uses shag carpet-like material.

@chris101d: I'm hoping for the artful placement of plush bananas.

@tc4b: Only when they're large enough to swallow a man's head whole.

@dorianh49: On the bright side, they don't have a young miss size. Yet.

@Liam Kinkaid: The poor dear might die of an embolism!

@Trai_Dep: "The Artful Placement of Plush Bananas" is so going to be the title of my next novel.

@sirellyn: If only they came up with a puckered anus hat for whining commentators to wear, then we'd ALL be happy...
