Advanced Fashion Quiz

One of the items pictured below is a "collar neck warmer" available at Shopbop.com for $170. The other is a fire-resistant foam neck brace available at an orthopedic medical supply website.



Can you tell which is which?

does it strike anyone else as odd that the guy wearing the neck brace seems happier than the girl with over priced dicky?

VERONICA said...

I'd be willing to bet the neck brace is warmer!!

Both models look pretty cheerful.

This does not help to discern who has the horrible accessory and who has the terrible injury.

See? Inspiration is everywhere! You too could pick a random household object, turn it into a hat, and make a milion dollars... I love fashion!

Lisa said...

Hmm this is tough...the girl looks like she's in more pain than the guy.

Larissa said...

I'd guess the second one would be the medical one, but that depends if you've got a cunning twist in store for us or not :p

Not helping - how uncomfortable the first model looks. She LOOKS like she needs the bottom item.

For $170 dollars...that thing best be a neck cowl, a brace, AND help pay my rent.

Kate Coveny Hood said...

I don't know... The model is so pretty...I must need what she's selling. Where did I put my checkbook...

Katy said...

ROFL.

Haha, I'm guessing the first one is Shopbop, just because the model has that "I have to burp" look that Shopbop's all seem to have.

Molly said...

Hey, those things work, that just seems to be on crack.

Syed said...

Haha, she looks incredibly uncomfortable. I think a wraparound scarf will suffice for me ;)

Zara said...

the second one is very chic... NOT!

Jillian said...

EIBTP-
hahah yeah I was really wondering about that too.

Sal-
I'll give you another minute if it helps! :)

WendyB-
It might be, for all we know--that guy will do anything for a buck.

K @BlogGoggles-
Oh my god, "I have to burp" is the perfect description for the classic shopbop model expression!

Even the model looks confused.
