The Conversation About Skirts Continues

JULY 1, 2004 BY SUSAN J

Thanks to Lauren, http://smartypants.blog-city.com for sending along a contribution to the ongoing conversation between the sexes about pillowcase skirts:

“Last year I was consumed with making (ok, making my mother do all the sewing parts) pillowcase skirts. I talked about them all the time to everyone who would listen. Women were fascinated and wanted one of their own. My otherwise fantastic boyfriend Steve was confused.

S: A pillowcase?

L: Yes! Isn’t that cool? And cheap! And perfect!

S: Which way does it go?

L: What do you mean? You wear it as if you are the pillow.

S: But surely one won’t be enough!

He has since come around and is a huge fan of my ex-pillowcases, but he is still amazed that they are big enough for people to wear.”

Double thanks to Lauren for sending along the following link:http://orgs.l3.drake.edu/drake-mag/html/sp04%20html/skirtSP.html

Confession: several of the pillowcases I auditioned didn’t fit. They were more pillowcase legwarmers. So Steve: your instincts were not incorrect!

Happy Canada Day all.
