Remember those tiny, tiny shirts that were doll-sized when in the store and stretched to fit when worn? I saw them advertized as "pucker tops" and they were crinkly. I have a photo of me from a couple years ago holding one up and mocking it in a department store. They were incredibly funny-looking and ALWAYS on sale (what does that tell you...?) Who else remembers those?

I definitely remember those...seems like they were constantly the rejects on the clearance rack. I don't know whether or not I just think they're tacky or am biased with the memory of seeing a very much full-figured girl walking down the street wearing one. I'm not stating that they don't look good on curvier girls; they're just unflattering on anybody.
Just my two cents.

Heheh I own one of those. It was on clearance at Marshall's so it must've been like $5. I've never worn it because I don't have anything to wear under it. :/

And yeah, it does look a little bit tacky. I got it cause I liked the colors and pattern. What was I thinking?

I think the main reason I never got one is because it would look so silly hanging in my closet alongside "normal" sized clothes. Now if I had a Mini-Me.....

I do have to wonder what brilliant marketing person dreamed that one up...and if they've still got a job.
