Burqa Chic (Wizbang)

Hey, how about some haute couture with your oppression? The burqa goes chic!

The burqa is the wardrobe of choice for many Muslim women. It is worn over a woman's daily clothing, usually covering her from head to toe. Today, the burqa has gone designer, popping up on fashion runways in the West, like at this show by Norwegian designers Marked Moskva in Norway earlier this month. Here, a burqa evokes traditional Norwegian dress. The designers reportedly say they are aiming their collection at Muslims and non-Muslims.

Here are a few of the pictures from the collection:

I think I'll pass on the new burqa haute couture. I know that dhimmitude is all the rage in ~~Europe~~ Eurabia right now, but here in America, I'm happy wearing my jeans, tank top, and flip flops. I have no desire to cover myself up from head to toe to please a bloodthirsty cult who thinks that being raped is an offense punishable by death, thank you very much.

Here's what I consider haute couture: the Uncovered Meat line. I first heard about it a looong time ago from Tammy Bruce, and I still think this stuff rocks. I like the Satanic Women's Tank Top, myself:

Here's the inspiration for it:

"If you take uncovered meat and put it on the street, on the pavement, in a garden, in a park, or in the backyard, without a cover and the cats eat it, then whose fault will it be, the cat?s, or the uncovered meat?s? The uncovered meat is the disaster. If the meat was covered the cats wouldn?t roam around it. If the meat is inside the fridge, they won?t get it."

-Australian Muslim Leader, Sheik Taj Din al-Hilaly's Post-Ramadan Sermon, Sydney Australia 2006. He was referring to women.

Show the Sheik how things really are and Sheik your Booty in this quality Infidel Clothing.

Manufactured in the Great Satan, all proceeds go towards forbidden consumption of alcohol.

You can go with my pick of the Satanic Women's Tank Top, a Eurabia Yellow T-shirt, a white T-shirt of Submission, a fitted Infidel Shirt, Fatwa Spaghetti Tanks and Shorts, Unclean Animal Shirts, and even Hilaly Thongs.

Those sound much better to me than the "burqa chic".

Wizbang Blue: Obama Slams Bush as Fear-Monger

"They're trying to fool you. They're trying to scare you and they're not telling the truth," a fired-up Obama declared while campaigning in South Dakota. "But it's not going to work. Both Bush and McCain represent the failed foreign policy and fear mongering of the past," Obama said. "I believe the American people are ready to reject this approach and to choose the future."

And remember, that it is the victim of the rape who will likely be the one put to death.

Unfortunately, the woman in the first picture will have to be stoned to death because us infidels can see her ankle.

Second, the 'uncovered meat' angle is interesting. I like this shirt, myself.
