A dress for sale online is being mocked after it was pointed out that the pricey item looks like a sack of onions.
The dress, from award-wining designer Elissa Poppy, is available for purchase via online retailer ASOS. The garment is made from 100-percent latex, and retails for $553. It is currently on sale for $331.50.

Poppy’s designs, which combine latex with lace, are described on the ASOS site as “couture-inspired lingerie,” and the see-through red dress features a strapless design with a sweetheart neckline and racy lace-up back. Fashion lovers are told to cover their bodies in talcum powder before trying to slip this dress on, for “ease of dressing."
