Dress up as your failed relationship this Halloween with this ghosted dress (metro.co.uk).
For those who don’t know (and seriously, it’s 2018 people, where have you been?) ghosting is where the person you’re dating or talking to pretty much vanishes out of thin air.
With you left waiting for a text, call, DM, or email that is just coming. But it seems you can turn that “dating disaster” into a costume for Halloween with a ghosting themed dress.
Party City is selling the Womens Ghosted Costume—for anyone who’s been ghosted or who has ghosted someone.
Article writer Hattie thankfully clarifying the womens costume is for any that has “been ghosted or who has ghosted someone” in relation to the Metro’s articles on “submarining, fishing, zombieing and of course ghosting” referenced which, keen to live to expectations of an edgy, empowered urban millennial audience to to which it aims to appeal, invariably implicitly suggest ghosting is a ploy of the “emotionless husks, devoid of all empathy” that are “dating App Man”.
The dress is white and comes with a jagged design, and features a number of “sent” iPhone messages from someone being ignored—including “R U OK!?”, “See u tonight?” and “Guess not”.
And retailing for $24.99 (£18.99) with a tip that although it won’t appeal to everyone the wearer could be with a good chance of winning Best dressed—and getting a ghoulishly saucy group hug if perceived as ghosted victim or glass of claret down the dresses white front if as ghosting perpetrator.
