Is that postmodernism?

It looks like what you'd be left with after someone lost their soft toy on the motorway. Road kill would be less awful.

You couldn't even wear it ironically, could you? It would just look like you had taken the stuffing out of your kid's toy.

I'd buy it and put googly eyes on it as they seem to have been gouged out. Great talking point

It is, however, ideal if you ever fancy adding cruelly de vil to the dressing up box. I suppose.

My dear friend who knows my hatred of real fur, once bought (as a joke) a fox collar that had the head, all four legs dangling and it's tail and the body of the fox had been fashioned to be much smaller so that it was just a thick collar with the head, limbs and tail dangling at the front. It looked like it was a hundred years old!

She had it on when she came to pick me up one day and she said the look on my face when I clocked it around her neck was priceless!

The m&s thing is neither whimsical or edgy. It's just naff.

If I see anyone wearing it, I am going to scream and point at them just like Donald Sutherland in invasion of the body snatchers!

I was going to write to the board of directors of M&S to ask what were they thinking when they decided to sell the not so fantastic Mr Fox.

Then I decided that most of them look like the sort of people who would actually wear it or their wives would.

OMG it is so shit!

When I clicked on this I thought it was going to be a knock off of the Donna Wilson one that I covet and I got excited, but no.
