About a week ago I was in the dressing mood and my sister's newly bought ball dress was to hand. Its a scarlet number which puffs out at the waist. As I was trying it on I could tell it was tight, but that hadn't ever stopped by before (no innuendos please), so I kept going. Got my arms in through the straps fine but really had to breath in, so I gave up.
As I was taking it off, I could tell it wouldn't be as easy as it was getting it on, and so I employed a "wriggle-a-little-and-slide-down" approach. It seemed to be working but then I heard a dreaded sound.
Fsst.
It had split ever so slightly at the waist and I panicked. Even worse, it felt like I was stuck - there was no way my technique would work without it ripping further. In addition to all this chaos, my parents were due home in ten minutes - Was this how I was going to come out to them? Trapped in my sister's ball dress?
Luckily, I tried the old "pull-up-from-the-bottom-and-lift-over-your-head" approach, which in the end worked fine (although did leave it creased to hell). I put everything back in it's place, went back into boy mode and tried to forget the whole ordeal as my parents came into the house...
Anyone had a similarly terrifying "stuck" or "splitting" experience? You'll know my pain
Thanks for reading!
