    I wouldn't disagree, and one could certainly feel like kung fu fighting once hitting the clubs.

    But don't overlook the pants. The pants. So much texture in that polyester…

    I think there's a store at Dundas and Dufferin on Toronto that sells it.

    Gary Oldman wore the matching nightgown in "Bram Stoker's Dracula".

    Personally, the idea is absolutely brilliant, if badly executed. The dragon designs can't decide if they're Oriental or Western. Either style has its respective merits, but the designer should have stuck with one or the other.

    Doug's right about the trousers. They're simply incredible

    P.S. Interesting thing about the photo. You're looking at a little bit of "photoshop magic" almost a decade before the first personal computers even hit the home consumer market. Back in those days it was called "doctoring" a photo. The model's head is much too large for his body (even allowing for the hair) and the highlights on his face don't match those on his hands. Wonder why they swapped heads?
