Beadnet dress | Egyptian Old Kingdom, Dynasty 4, reign of Khufu |2551–2528 B.C.

Depictions of women in Egyptian art occasionally feature garments decorated with an overall lozenge pattern. This design is believed to represent beadwork, which was either sewn onto a linen dress or worked into a separate net worn over the linen. This beadnet dress is the earliest surviving example of such a garment. It has been painstakingly reassembled from approximately seven thousand beads found in an undisturbed burial of a female contemporary of King Khufu. Although their string had disintegrated, a few beads still lay in their original pattern on and around the mummy, permitting an accurate reconstruction. The color of the beads has faded, but the beadnet was originally blue and blue green in imitation of lapis lazuli and turquoise. (Boston MFA)

this is not an ordinary ugly dress—it’s Top Shop’s vagina dentata dress!

well actually, it’s a print dress of a crocodile’s face…because there’s nothing more attractive than having a monstery face plastered all over your bad self. best of all, its toothy grin goes right over the crotch area (hence the vagina dentata association) and its beady eyes are positioned right where the breasts go. surely, the boys will appreciate this. get yours now for only $125 and be the star of your very own version of Teeth!
