The article quotes an expert in some strange unknown French, who said: "Kim Jong-Il fashion spreads rapidly around the world is something unprecedented in world history."

Could Brown Jong straitjacket and pants zipped polyester will either be making waves in the world of fashion? Is Dictator chic to be the best thing? With so here in a vintage style to the bunker YLF we wondered if maybe there really something to look back Jong? Fashion is fashion totalitarianism?
