To Armpitity... and Beyond


This might not be the most garish and awful thing I've ever seen, but its variety of odd details combine to be enough of a mess to take a few swipes at...
So.
In the glorious future, this is what all KFC employees will wear. It's an apron, it's a uniform, it's got a swish neckerchief - I say, I say, I say, boy!
The designer thought that a giant lapel and collar - both on the jackety part AND the saucy, shiny pink shirt underneath - a cinchy belt, use cheapo sweatshirt-seam stitching at the edges, just wasn't quite enough of a statement.
What was that one finishing touch, that would make this jacket stand out? Of course! Scalloped mille-feuilles around the shoulder seams, evocative of piped mashed potatoes!
Because nothing says class and comfort like a Coquille St. Jacques border in your armpits.
