Call the fashion police!

Hey, you know those backward countries where the police arrest women for wearing the wrong sort of clothing? Like New York City?.

“Any current issue of a fashion magazine would display plenty of women similarly dressed,” wrote Judge Felicia Mennin in her Oct. 15 decision slamming cops for their sartorial arrest rationale. “However, the choice of such outfit hardly demonstrates the wearer’s proclivity to engage in prostitution.”
