The Hip Way To Travel

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard Forever 21 Airlines, Flight 288 with non-stop service to Unflattering."



Please turn your attention to the flight attendant nearest you for our peplum demonstration. Please follow along with the image in front of you.

Please make sure your peplum is securely fastened at this time. To fasten, firmly affix the ruffles to your midsection. In case of a water landing, the peplum will inflate and serve as a flotation device.

Please take this time to notice that the peplum sits around your waist, rather than on your hips. Keep in mind that it may make you look larger and will at bulk to your waist, traditionally a narrow point on the torso. If you are naturally slim, the peplum may come off as an oddly placed inner tube, rather than additional fabric that adds curves.

As we come through the cabin to perform our final safety checks, please make sure your seatbelt is fastened as best you can over this mass of fabric, your seat back and tray tables are in their full upright and locked position, and all carry on items are stored properly.

Thank you for your attention, and we wish you a good flight on Forever 21 Airlines.

  1. Happened upon your blog today. This is hilarious.

    And very similar to my own feelings toward this bizarre piece of fashion garbage, as seen here: http://zoecullie.com/2010/02/hate-is-a-strong-word/

  2. @ Zoe - Awesome, thanks! Glad you like it. And yes, we're definitely of the same opinion (although I've seen a few dresses that kind of make it work). How does that girl manage?
