What A Waste Of Money..Would you go out wearing 'nothing' but a few strategically placed pom-poms? Nasty Gal markets daring $540 dress

                  

Online retailer Nasty Gal has made a move away from the budget-friendly fashions that it is best known in order to add to its e-store an over-the-top dress design which makes the wearer look as though they are wearing nothing but furry pom poms. 

The $538 design, which is a collaboration with Australian label Dyspnea, is described on the website as a 'pink mesh dress' which features 'purple, pink, and blue feather poufs, a zip closure at back, and raw-cut hems'. 

Nasty Gal adds that the creation would be 'perfect with high-waisted panties, a matching bralette, and a light up dancefloor'. 

Would you dare to bare? The Mutha Fluffa Feather Dress, which is priced at $538, is a collaboration between online fashion brand Nasty Gal and Australian clothing label Dyspnea

Made with completely sheer fabric, the design, which is aptly-named the Mutha Fluffa Feather Dress, makes it seem as though the wearer is completely naked, with the exception of a number of furry pom poms which add a minimal amount of cover to the front and back of the ensemble. 

The Nasty Gal website adds that the product is best suited to 'daydreamers and tastemakers', and suggests that customers might like to pair the design with an equally furry handbag, a pair of feather-embellished shoes and - perhaps the most sensible - a white bodysuit. 

However, its own model instead showcases the dress with a pair of sky-high pink furry shoes and a pair of metallic pants.

She appears to have forgone the option of a bodysuit or bra.  

Unsurprisingly, the odd design has left fashion fans divided, with some more daring critics on Twitter hailing the dress as 'brilliant' and 'awesome' - while others are not quite so keen.

'That dress is mother fluffin' awful. What even is it?!' one Twitter user wrote, while another added: 'The edgy fashion forward clothing site #nasty gal usually has some interesting pieces, but this one just defies logic.'

                              

                              

It's fur real! The design has divided fashion fans, with some claiming it is 'brilliant' and 'awesome', while others feel it is too over-the-top and expensive

One person questioned how on earth such a minimalist design could come with such a high price tag, asking: 'Someone please explain to me how this thing is worth more than $20?'

Their comments will likely come as no surprise to fashion brand Dyspnea's co-creators Jameen Zalfen, Aimee-Cherie Kendall and Rachel Motteram, who have previously noted that their label is all about creating outrageous, over-the-top designs. 

'[Dyspnea is] crazy, provocative, coma-inducing, psychedelic and magical,' Jameen told Oyster magazine in April last year.

She added: '[The Dyspnea girl is] the tinkerbell of this generation. She loves to dress up and get [crazy]. 

While the dress may not be to everyone's tastes, it does look as though it might have been inspired by the increasing trend for brightly colored furs that has been seen on the catwalks at New York, London and Milan Fashion Weeks during the past month. 

Models and attendees alike have been showcasing a renewed love of furry garments, both real and faux, with fluffy accessories also proving particularly popular among designers such as Tommy Hilfiger, Altuzarra and Dennis Blasso, to name but a few.
