Designer's $1,200 'Hug Me' jacket is perfect for cold, rich weirdos

Are you lonely? Cold? Want to look like you're being strangled by the Grinch? Then designer Si Chan has the perfect product for you. His "Hug Me" jacket is a padded parka that, instead of zippers or toggles, is secured by four pairs of stuffed hands, a bizarro design that — ironically — will probably discourage real people from getting close to you. This jacket is just one part of Chan's HUG ME collection, designed as his final major project for the London College of Fashion. Although it's currently just a prototype, the Hug Me jacket would retail for more than $1,200. Attention rich strangers: We'd be willing to hug you for, like, $50 a pop. [Source]
