$3000 for a gown.... made of balloons!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion 4 years ago

Will you for the sake of fashion, pay $3000 for a one of a kind unique gown?
One where you do not need to wash.
One where you do not need to iron.
One where you can only wear once!
But it will make one helluva fashion statement!

Rie Hasokai has made a brand new series of gowns that are made up of balloons!
And they don't come cheap. The best part of it, there are people who will buy them too!
Amazing! Isn't it? What people will pay for novelty.

People who have too much money and do not know where to spend it will always buy unnecessary things especially fashionable clothings. At the end of the day it is just left there hanging in the closet waiting to be dumped away when it has gone out of fashion and the value of the gown depreciate and no longer command a good price. I for one could not afford to buy such gown and would only appreciate it from distance. But honestly even I have that money I would think hundred times if I would invest in such a piece of gown which doesn't benefit me in the long run.

Yeah, they are a real waste of money, isn't it?
Well, only for the rich by the rich.
If you know how to play on their novelty senses, I am sure you too can make this kind of money off of them.

The things rich people do. Some I will never understand!

I think that's a tragedy, that some people will pay that much money for something so stupid! What a waste! (And I'm not talking about the money... it's a waste of human flesh for someone to be that stupid!)

In today's world, where so many people are "going under" or those who have been hungry their entire lives, to hear that someone would pay $3,000.00 to wear a bunch of balloons is just despicable! Donate that money to a worthy cause, or at least most of it and buy youself something a little more sensible!

It's a crying shame what some people feel they must do to get attention. NO piece of clothing is worth that much! Oh, I know that some clothing costs even more and I find them even more obscene.

Movie actors, sports players, corporate CEO's, they all make way too much money. NO ONE needs that much money, where they can just throw it away on a bunch of balloons to wear only once.

Of course, there are also those of us commoners who "Oooh!" and "Aaah!" over what the celebrities are wearing, eagerly awaiting the newest Hollywood event or celebrity magazine to come out. (I am most definitely NOT one of them!)

No, that kind of thing hurts my soul. It makes me want to become even more of a hermit! So many people are struggling so hard, just to have those 'ends' not meet, when here comes someone in a $3,000.00 balloon gown.

You know what I'd want to do? Take a pin and... I think you can guess the rest! ninja


myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion  4 years ago

ha ha ha ha ha... yeah, just like how you would love to pop those bubble wrap that comes with the packages in the mail, doesn't it?

Yeah, I too agree that it is a waste of precious money to pay for something like that!
But the crazy part is, people are willing to pay for it. And in the business world, if there is a demand, there will be someone to supply it.

Wasteful or not, the world is never fair. We just have to accept that fact.
What we can do is to sit back and watch how much sillier the antics can get with these rich folks eh?
We get entertained for almost nothing at all. lol


myLot reputation of 99/100. mentalward (6158)  4 years ago

Very true! That's an excellent way of looking at it, like a side-show at the circus! lol

I have seen a similiar article in the newpaper 2 days back.. hehe ^_^ It's really amazing and actually the gown looks really nice and unique.. I like the color of it as it's in a mixture of ocean blue and green.. hehe ^_^

For $3000, i wont mind paying for that, just to wear it once, because it's a completely different experience.. Life is about trying and be more adventurous.. haha =D Do u know that there's also a dress made from condoms?? lol =D


myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion  4 years ago

You would?
I for one would rather spend that $3000 on some European tour where I can enjoy the money longer than just that one wear!
And the experience will definitely be new and different too!
So much more enriching than just wearing a bunch of balloons. No?

Well, each to its own.

Yeah, I heard of the dress made of condoms. And there is one made from M&Ms. And another made from chocolates. And another from candies.
So much good food going to waste just so some model can wear it to show off some design.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (10498)  4 years ago

lol =D It's more for the experience.. I can go on a european tour whenever i like, as long as i have the money.. But for the clothing, i might not even get to wear it even i got the money in the future.. haha =D


myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion  4 years ago

Well, wearing clothes is just fabric touching skin.
For those fanciful designs with food, you can always go to the kitchen and help yourself! lol Cheap and good! lol
And for the one with baloons, it is latex on skin. I guess the closest thing I can think of is a diving suit.

Honestly, you actually want to try something like that just for the experience sake?


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (10498)  4 years ago

lol =D Diving suit is much more umcomfortable because it sticks to the skin.. hehe ^_^

Well, it's only once in a life time, and i like to go for experiences.. I like exploring and i like things out of the usual ^_^

I don't think I will dare to wear this gown as it is made of balloons. I am afraid they will be broken and I will be quite scared:) I don't know how to sit down when I wear this gown.

I love Chinathumbupthumbupthumbup


myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion  4 years ago

You are not going to be able to do much other than stand when you are in this gown.
Forget going to the toilet. Forget sitting down for a meal. Forget even to lean on the wall for rest support!

Cos you never know when the balloons pop, whether the rest are going to pop with it as well! lollollol

5. myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   4 years ago

with my luck i would wear one and some one would hug me with pointy jewelry on and it would pop all of them and then i would be standing there naked lol


myLot reputation of 99/100. ahgong (3967)   ranked 11 out of 833 in fashion  4 years ago

blink You mean you will actually spent that kinda money to get such a gown?
And then you WOULD WANT people to pop your balloon gown?
And be there in your birthday suit?!?

If you want to display your birthday suit, why bother spending that kinda money?!?blink


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)  4 years ago

no i mean i DONT want one because i think its silly.. but if i was crazy enough to want one with my luck it would some how get popped or deflated and then i would have wasted all that money and be embarrassed and naked lol

It has been proven many times over that some people have more money than they do sense. I think I would be able to better find a use for my $3000 dollars than blow it (no pun intended) lol on balloons. I would like to go to that party with a pin though. They say money travels fast can you even imagine how fast that would go. LOL
