ASOS Started Selling Dinosaur Tail Strap Ons Because… Why Not?

ADVERTISEMENT

Want to stand out from the crowd? Don’t know what to wear for your first Tinder date? ASOS, one of the top UK clothing retailers, has a solution for all your clothing related conundrums – a dinosaur tail strap on.

Unfortunately, those interested in dinosaur tails will have to wait, because the product went so viral it immediately sold out. Apparently there’s a demand for dinosaur tails on a belt, but, to be honest, I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or not. However, they also have other animal-inspired tails including wolf, fox and leopard to complete your rear-end makeover.

I wouldn't want to get in public transportation with someone wearing the dinosaur ones. But the soft and fluffy ones? I wouldn't wear them myself, but I don't think it's a bad, or neccessarily cosplay, fashion accessory.

it's definitely a way to stand out that's for sure but perhaps i don't think the good kind of attention that you want to receive , but i say it'll come in handy for dressing up for halloween, also i was quite surprised it sold out so fast..

Been doing the wolf tail on a belt for years and years at halloween parties (1/2 undone belt covered in fluff (match the fluff to your wolf ears bam fancy dress!!) Thought this was a standard costume idea and not a new internet craze, Asos discovering the same design a 10 year old discovered on halloween '91!!!

This reminds me of a children's story I once read called 'When Mum turned into a Monster' by Joanna Harrison.
