A Twist on a Prom Dress

There is this company called XCite that creates prom dresses. It just recently unveiled its new 2005 line, including this black dress that fits by twisting the dress straps into a v before hooking it around the neck, making it into a v halter top, and a v halter back. There's also a good expanse of abdominal fabric missing. It's not that bad looking like that. However, the model somehow put it on wrong at a runway show, by just wearing the straps on the shoulders instead of twisting them around the neck. It's actually not very pretty, almost tacky even. An image of suspenders in velvet. However, goodness knows why, it turned the dress into a best seller. It looks a billion times sluttier; suffice to say that sometimes even models know how to promote a so-so dress into a questionable instantaneous sensation.
