"Transparent" Skirts Likely Fakes -- At Least For Now!

A reasoned consensus seems to be emerging that the "transparent" Japanese skirts are just digitally altered photos, in actuality neither see-through material nor a painted-on-fabric trompe d'oeil.

But now that the idea is loose, some enterprising souls, somewhere, will surely whip up truly transparent skirts, or the painted version, or both. It's the nature of the web to propagate, magnify -- and finally, reify -- such novel concepts.

So these photos aren't so much a hoax as they are mockups -- a sort of product proposal, thrown out into the noosphere, and another example of the LazyWeb in action.
