The subject line of Katy's email was And they say being a model is easy...

Bec says: I was looking for a dress to wear to the year 11 Prom. My legs are quite long, so I was looking for something short to show them off, but that covers the rest up. Looking online, I saw some shockers, to say the least, but I nearly wet my pants when I saw this one:

Whoa! Spontaneous koan!

Speaking of exposed mannequins:

From Cate: I’m very happy that this young lady is so happy, although I wish she’d spent some time brushing her hair. Or, at least….I WAS happy. Until I scrolled down:
The next entry comes from the lovely Michaela, who was perusing pics of an Alexander McQueen runway show when she found, well, this:

Niki is quite confused by Ashanti's dress and thoughtful pose here:

Lisa quotes the professional style advice that accompanied the photo below: "The micro mini is one of those essential pieces that every functional wardrobe needs. A black micro mini skirt is fundamental. It can be dressed up or down."
So, when I receive an email titled "Reverse Chocha," I get a little nervous. And when I open said email and find this, I realize I was totally right to be nervous:

I love this alternate view, too:
And finally, to keep the classy theme goin', a few readers sent in this, um, interesting Marc Jacobs ad:

Ashley: You know how the rich use $100 bills to wipe? I think he one upped them by choosing a 4-figure bag as a personal port-a-potty.
Annie: If the purse was removed from this photo, a chocha WOULD be showing. But actually, I think this is a guy.
You guys crack me up.
p.s. I'm going to try to get DSYC posts up more regularly, so keep the chocha comin'! Oh god. I'm sorry. Anyway, email me: daddylikeyblog@gmail.com

I actually saw someone wearing the black neo-shift number on campus (3rd from the top). And she was not, shall we say, lacking in the booty. I was behind her. On the stairs. I cried for nights.
oh god, the reverse chocha. if the first model stands up straight, i think the whole 'cha is gonna pop out.
That last person is a man?!
Oh nyooooo....
Woah... being a new follower of Daddy, I've not seen any previous chocha posts and therefore wasn't sure what to think after reading it this morning. I left the page, came back & couldn't stop thinking about the exposed chocha trend - I had to blog about your blog and introduce my (few - ok, nonexistent) readers to this epidemic. Ha! this was a total laugh & a great way to get me through a dreary morning. Thanks Winona!
The reverse chocha is very exciting!
I'm completely confused by the stripper pants. I mean I assume that they don't stay on for long but doesn't the woman wearing them have to do bit of strutting or pole dancing first? I just don't see how this would work. Not that I've actually given it THAT much thought. Only a cumulative hour or so...
Winona! You live in DC now. You have to check out my giveaway from yesterday for a great Bee Gee Bags clutch. The indie designer is DC based and I think she's amazingly creative. Besides - if you win the giveaway then I can just hand deliver the bag to you and cut out the whole post office/shipping issue altogether (I hate the post office - I'm really hoping someone local wins).
Hahaha the reverse chocha was too good not to feature!
ROFL your captions always leave me smiling. I love this series. i really don't understand the chic in the green dress, she looks so indecent i wonder how she was able to manage walking out of her front door.
Oh Winona, you never fail to make me laugh! And I was so excited to see that my picture was the first! I think I'm engaged in a Toxic Designer Relationship (you coined a term!) with Anna Sui. The first sign was the pre-ripped tights for around $120. The second was the "dress" seen here.
With the black micro mini we've reached the point of no return - there, where one should not look on a lady, is clearly the...er...fabric that should not be seen. If this doesn't concern people I give up.
As for Marc Jacobs - considering his latest ads featured full frontal nudity this is a little reserved. And that is definitely a dood.
Today I had to write "unwmp" to post a comment. Unwmp - what men do when they man up.
Yay! You featured my Reverse Chocha submission! My life is complete, and the time I spent on that stripper pants website is now totally validated :) Thanks, Winona!
-Rachel (a.k.a. Darling)
Geez. With all that bonus, butt-cape fabric, you'd think Ashanti could cover up those lady parts SOMEHOW.
Well, now I've seen everything. Those lurex (or whatever) stripper pants are not even all the way ON! They're like extra-long leg warmers.
Certainly they cannot count as pants.
Is it wrong that I'm absolutely loving the reverse chocha stripper pants? Not in a I-want-them-in-my-wardrobe-way though!!
omg i cannot believe that alexander mcqueen one!
I bought a skirt EXTREMELY similar from AA once. I tried it on, it was cute...put it on the next day to wear it, walked around the house a bit...and it started riding up a little. uh oh. I took the skirt off, putting it in the bag saying, "I'm so sorry Winona!" and returned it that same day.
check out Alexandre Hercovitz's spring/summer 09 collection. He utilizes the hot new street fashion of CROTCH RUFFLES. I can't even explain them here, you have to see in real life
(there is a post of it on my blog from october. It might be a little scary to experience)
Is that a pierogi on the first model's head?
