Iran’s Fashion Police

I bet you guys have heard of these Fashion police shows and stuff on really cheap TV stations such E! Or on these really lame reality shows and make over shows.

 

You know how they usually have a gay stylist who sits there and all these horrendous looking women come and walk by with some scary looking clothes and then the stylist tells them how bad they look and what it is they are wearing that is wrong. Then the women break down to tears and say ‘oh! Bobby can you please help me get a make over, I wanna make my husband happy. I don’t want my children to be embarrassed by me and blah blah blah…”

So this crew of hair stylists, skin care experts, nail experts and some other weird experts take the women away and bring them back looking quite different.

 

“What we have tried to do here is, you know Liza has beautiful eyes and we’ve tried to bring out her eyes, by…..”

 

Now, you know how they call these shows entertainment shows, this is modern TV, isn’t it?

 

Then I really don’t understand why some people claim that Iran is boring and sad.

 

We are probably one of the few countries in the world if not the only, that actually have Fashion Police on every main square of our cities and every trendy Café, restaurant, shopping mall and high-street. Believe me this concept does not exist even in fashion capitals of the world; Milan, Paris, New York, Tokyo ….

 

I totally recommend you come and get some fashion advice in Iran.

 

We have these little Green and White Vans that are just parked there; outside a shopping mall or a café, and there are a few women in black chadors sitting in the van and some really cool looking Pasdars (men fashion police) and they wait for their prey. Sitting there, watching carefully and planning their next move.
So they see a girl with lots of make up coming out of the mall, with her Gucci bag and Prada, shoes, and Blonde hair and French Manicure and then all of a sudden one of the black chadored women blocks her way and says “where do you think you are going missy with THAT look? Get in the van we need to talk”.

 

I mean come on don’t you want to know what happens at the end? Dude this is the real shit. I mean “the Red Carpet fashion police” or the show “what not to wear” or the other one “look ten years younger”; they all imitated the Iranian fashion police.

 

This fashion police thing was kind of over during Khatami’s presidency but now we have Ahmadinejad to thank for making Life entertaining in Iran once again.

Thank you Mr. President for the Islamic fashion police, thank you.
