Well hi there if you’re coming from Boing Boing! We’re thrilled they linked to us and that you are here. Did you know that YOU are our new favorite reader?
You should stick around. Take a look in the archives to see the plethra of craftastrophes we have posted since we started this site. Once we’ve made you laugh until you pee your pants, please subscribe to our feed and follow us on Twitter. If that isn’t enough to turn you on, you have a chance to win a sex toy from Eden’s Fantasy’s here. Now, on with the Vulva-licious post you came here for….
Prom is a special time for a girl; for many it signifies the transition to adulthood with a little Bow Chicka Wow Wow in a hotel room.
Prom night is the new wedding night. Take note.
Who the hell am I kidding!? That was so like 1980; kids are far more apt to do “It” anywhere these days. Billy’s car in the driveway outside her parent’s house? No problem! Jake’s pool while his parents lounge on the deck? Sure!
Whatever. I digress.
So picture it boys. Your hands are clammy with sweat as you approach the door. Before ringing the bell (Get it? Ring the bell? Gawd, I’m funny.) you wipe those sweaty palms down the legs of your pants.
Your date’s dad comes to the door, shotgun in hand and asks you a million questions, none of which you hear because over dad’s shoulder you see her coming down the stairs. A smile crosses your face because you know tonight’s The Night: you got That Feeling as soon as you saw her in this:
Nothing screams I’m losing my virginity tonight with a horny jock in the front seat of his car like a dress outfitted with LABIA.
There’s a little back story about this one. Apparently it’s gotten back to the original site that THERE’S A VAGINA ON THE FRONT OF THIS PROM DRESS! and they’ve edited the photo to remove the VAGINA.
It’s now changed to this:
Which now clearly shows that the vagina as crawled back up inside – like a snail retreats into its shell when it feels attacked.
But now I question if the actual dress design has been altered or the unknowing purchaser of said dress will find out there are VAGINA LIPS on her dress once it’s purchased and received?
Because really? The name just says it all: Sweetheart Asymmetrical Satin Prom / Evening Dress? Why not Satin Prom Dress a la Vag?
Poor unsuspecting Suzie had no idea that she would literally Jam Out With Her Clam Out at prom this year.
Thanks Mom-O-Matic!!

Well, actually. It was first posted on the ORIGINAL site – Light Box.
Then posted at Best Week Ever – which we’ve sourced above.
I’ll let your spam link stay since I love DListed.
Thanks for stopping by!

The site that’s selling that dress put the original picture back up there. Apparently they feel that pink satin vaginas will sell prom gowns…

Original sales post If you take a peek at lightinthebox.com you’ll see they have not edited the dress image. It’s still there in all it’s pinkly glory.

Great title. Well nothing sells quite like sex…

“…the vagina as crawled back up inside – like a snail retreats into its shell when it feels attacked.”
It’s brilliant prose like this that keeps me addicted. However, I believe I will now put a GPS tracker, spy cam and a device that acts as a bullhorn for his mother’s voice on my son before sending him out to Prom next month.
Consider your post a public service message.

I have seen this in a few places and each time I saw it I wondered if/when it would end up here. Also, I agree with the other people that the title is great.

that is so funny! I will never understand how some products make it past testing when they so obviously resemble “private parts”.

Did anyone else notice how bizarrely apt the name of the website is : “Light in the Box”.
hmmmm.

Is this the same marketing ploy they used with the last Metallica album? Because really, if anything looks like a big hairy vagina…

what are you’se merkin at?
April 10th, 2009 at 11:13 pm
If you are going to discuss female anatomy please keep your names straight. Vagina is not labia. Vagina is never visible.
But – hey- we could get testicles and penis mixed up, too.
April 11th, 2009 at 8:29 am
This is my favorite dress ever. Does it come in men’s sizes?
April 11th, 2009 at 9:08 am
Pure. Awesomeness.
Jenny, Bloggess’s last blog post..If I get fired before my last day of work I’m totally going to act out that scene from Jerry Maguire when security comes. Not that “Show me the money” scene. The one where he rides off in a jet and is all “That’s right, Iceman. I *am* dangerous” and then he makes out with Val Kilmer. I may be confusing my Tom Cruise movies. I’ll probably just yell “Wolverines” instead.

I have to know what the coordinating tuxedo must look like. I bet it has a very distinctive cummerbund.*
* Wow, I just cracked myself up typing cummerbund. I love the English language sometimes.
