The Chicken Dance

The Chicken Dance - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

This was part of the blogger-driven Pinche UNO! competition, and one of my favorite designs to come out of that. At first glimpse, I admit it's obnoxious, but it definitely grew on me. I love that the shirt is dark-on-light-orange. I think it's blinding and amazing, and a great tribute to the seizure-inducing colors that many formal dresses come in.

It's an awesome staged prom photo (the legs of the one girl are the crowning touch, I swear), and I love how the "personalities" of the dance-goers come out. Plus, the concept is bizarre enough that it doesn't scream "CHICKEN DANCE, I MADE A JOKE! HA HA!" It's more of a "What the--?" design, with an answer that makes you slap your forehead in righteous dismay.

I still think this would be a fantastic print. Coral for girls, and I would buy this so fast my bank account would spin.
