you N. Americans need to reassure me you can decapitate your date if he shows up dressed like this outfit linked to in fug comments.
It's required.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Zootux will cause a fashion riot wherever it is worn.
What is a fashion riot? Is it dangerous? Are rotton tomatoes involved?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Zoot suits are becoming more and more popular as promware. That zoot suit is pretty bad. I don't mind the trend in general though.
[edit: Especially if you're latino]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'll have to take the site's word for that being a Zoot suit, and not just a Zootish mistake. Why take a picture of an actual Zoot suit and not show the shoulder to waist ratio?
Even so, that hat? NASTY. TACKY, NASTY. I don't care if it's Kid Creole, him and his Coconuts have to go back home. There are a million better Zoot suits out there than that one, and even so? Dodgy prom wear.

Someone with a flair from drama wearing one (or a major crazy smartass aiming to get looks like my brother), I wouldn't have even blinked. Nervous fidgity uncomfortable in suits types (oh like 3/4 the guys strangling in their bow ties at the prom I attended,) nsm.

Sleek and exciting, this unique outfit will make all the women swoon.
Is it still a swoon if the collapse is brought on by lack of oxygen due to all the laughing?

I do enjoy the idea of boys discover the very idea of covering their butts with trousers material. Double, if they're already wearing the enormous pants, and just hoik them up to a nice high waist.
I enjoy finding the dorky in the stylish.
There's a manager here who will only hire people he knows are stupider than he is.
OMG! Tom has my old boss! Does he accuse you of being a pessimist when you tell him about a problem?

We can't decapitate major crazy smartasses? My god, political correctness is totally ruining my fun.
I passed a woman here wearing a sweater in horizontal white-pink-red stripes, worn with black trousers with blue pinstripes and light brown shoes. No, I do not possess the imagination to make that a professional-looking outfit. On the flip side, the woman who always wears golds and browns was in greens yesterday. But such precisely co-ordinated greens. She scares me with her ability. And then I have a new coworker who wears more black than me, and more silver (she wears a brightly coloured piece of clothing once a week, but just the one).

I've been linked to way too many bad prom outfits, so the Zootux actually looks quite reasonable to me. Most teen boys look really bad in rented formal wear anyway, even if it's Armani. They don't have the maturity to pull it off. You might as well go for something fun, I say.
