I was expecting it to be made of antique assuit, and covered in real diamonds...

**ozma** · 10-22-2009 07:20 AM

I don't know what I was expecting...but what I got was THE TOOTSIE ROLL SONG stung in my head.

Curse you, Sabrina

It looks like an angry sack. Do not want...but I'll keep it in mind if I ever get hired to perform at a suicide bomber's wake. Sorry, but if I'm going to pay $1900 for a cover up, it sure better open down the front, so I don't have to shove full hair and makeup through a neck hole.

**Reinaa** · 10-22-2009 10:07 AM

It looks like the same ugly cover-up I own but I only paid $20.00. lol.

It's from Nieman-Marcus (we call it "Needless Markup").

Nuf said - they have an image to maintain which are outrageous prices and people will spend it too.

**zorba** · 10-22-2009 02:55 PM

I think it looks "OK", but remember what P.T. Barnum said...

Now THIS would be an amazing sight to behold!!! Should we put it on our fantasty wish list?? Hehe ..g.:

**Lesgemini_Zafirah** · 10-22-2009 03:05 PM

I don't think I recall that tootsie pop commercial (I'm thinking of the owl??)...Anyone got a YouTube of it...?

**Shirin.** · 10-22-2009 05:48 PM

Whoa what an ugly fabric!

The owl was in the Tootsie Pop commercial. This was an ad for the Tootsie Roll candy itself. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qayjR8Qbyfc]YouTube - Tootsie Roll 70's Commercial[/ame]

**Marianna** · 10-22-2009 06:05 PM

ok, I would pay $10 and wear it around the house when I don't feel like putting on clothes.

**ejaghana** · 10-22-2009 09:45 PM

Nope!

Me too but I bet I could get one just as good at Goodwill for $4.99..l;,

**catwomyn** · 10-23-2009 12:39 PM

If I wanted a silk cover-up, I'd buy a couple of rectangular A'Kai veils and sew them together. The rest of the money could go for a custom-order Bella and maybe even a cheap plane ticket to pick the darn thing up in person, lol!

**donnadiva** · 10-23-2009 12:56 PM

I'm getting it. Someone has to give it a home.

**blueyeddancer** · 10-23-2009 12:58 PM

That's ugly, I wouldn't even pay 5 for it on the rack at the thrift store.

Oh, yeah--I remember this commercial now! Oh, Darn it--now got the jingle/song stuck in my head!,r:;

**emma-bessa** · 10-24-2009 02:48 PM

Oh,and I´ve found a headpiece to go with the coverup:
House of Harlow 1960 Brass 6 Strand Coin Headpiece @ Singer22.com

Yeah, that would complete the look. Too bad it's sold out. I was going to buy one in the hope that for $455, it was going to come with a couple of strands of Nicole Richie's hair caught in the jump rings. Now where am I going to get an overpriced, celebrity-designed piece of costume jewelry to catch in my hair?!

**Safiyah** · 10-24-2009 06:44 PM

...but it's made in Italy

..l;, I absolutely agree with you!!

**Darbla** · 10-24-2009 08:15 PM

That thing is hideous. It looks like something I'd cut up to use as cleaning rags around the house.

**SatinWorship19** · 10-24-2009 08:18 PM

It looks like some type of high-end Snuggie.

I saw a Snuggie for the first time in a store the other day! It made me laugh because I keep seeing it mentioned on here.

Now, who can find some really expensive hideous shoes to go with this ensemble?
