This is one of the more amusing pictures I brought back from the UAE. This dress, it called to me from a boutique window, it beckoned and said, “Take me to your leader!”
At which point I stopped in my tracks, shook my head uncertainly and asked the dress to repeat itself.
“Excuse me?” I said unsurely to the store window, “Did you just ask me something?”
The beads (all one million of them) shook malevolently and the bottom of the dress started turning funny colors (check the photo!). The dress thundered “FOOLISH HUMAN!” and I took off running before it could threaten to suck my brain out. This mannequin was actually an alien. How do I know? Because it was dressed like a belly dancer from space.
Thank you and goodnight.
