LSD, VBS, TFFF etc.

Novel fashion-world initialisms.

Discussing fashion’s penchant for abbreviation, Hadley Freeman commentedin The Guardian on the latest additions to the style lexicon:

So now we have OTK (over the knee, generally applied to boots but can also be used for hemlines); VPL is well known but there is now alsoVBL (visible bra line) and VBS (visible bra strap) and then the particularly marvellous TFFF (too fat for fashion.) Yet I think my favourite new acronym is LSD. Yes, LSD. A certain far inferior newspaper promoted this acronym over the Christmas period, claiming the LSD was absolutely de rigueur at Christmas parties this year. Sadly, it turned out to be a lot less fun than it sounded as it stands now forlittle sequined dress.
