Sexy Venetian Blind T-Shirt Bares Midriffs With the Pull of a String
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 10:00 AM on July 7, 2008
Hey girls, can't decide whether or not to wear that midriff-bearing shirt out to the bar tonight? No worries, simply don this Venetian blind t-shirt and yank on the fully functional string when Joe Hotty walks by. Sure it's ridiculous, but it's also one-of-its-kind, and available only at art museums for the time being. Just don't be too peeved when some drunk mistakes your shirt for an actual window and pukes all over your chest. [Shikisai via I New Idea]

I used to have a shirt with a "real" basketball in the middle of the chest, that you could actually inflate. I just managed to part with it a couple months ago.

Umm . . . I think if my girl were to wear this shirt she would require a slap.

I can't, for the life of me, figure out why that guy wouldn't want his face in this picture...

-20 Points | Gadget how? If it's not as 'gadgety' as a whoopee cushion, why post? What is the bar?

My alley is rather dumpy looking.
I think I'll leave the blinds closed.

I could see something like this becoming a lot more useful in the future when humans become transparent and are used as building materials.

I've got pants like that with printed curtains over the zipper and when you pull the draw string..well....

OMG! Ponies!

Yeah... I'm not going to be doing that any time soon. I'm not exactly what you'd call "ripped".
OMG! Ponies!

@chonnes: I think your might deserve a slap just for being your girl.

I'm confused. When the cord is pulled does it turn a man into woman?

Sweet, they invented a lame way to let someone know you're packing heat.

Is there a special design for those endowed with a gunt or muffin-top? Maybe something opaque.

Well, you know what guys, I love it, and I would buy one in a second if I could.

Wear it down when leaving the house and passing mom-spection. Then draw it up when youre out and safe to something "sexier". (Obviously created to get around MOM).

I'd prefer the version with that twisty thing, where you could open the actual blinds as opposed to just lifting them...
...for the girl version only. Please.

I know venetian blinds open upwards, but having this one open downward would probably be a good improvement...

I'd buy one for the novelty; I'd never actually wear it of course being a guy.
