It seems that the phrase fashion police has been taken to new literal heights as Iran’s new laws are stopping model wannabes dead in their tracks. Monday afternoon police in Tehran began a moral crackdown on civilians dressed “unIslamic”. It seems that most of the cases have been women (surprise!) and the penalties range from getting pulled aside and told to wear a longer “manto” (an overcoat) or getting whisked away in an awaiting van, with fellow, fashion offenders. The lawbreakers are then sent to the “center for combating vice” where their family is called to bring a appropriate dress to change into. The criminals are made to sign an agreement to not commit the crime again an will face judiciary punishment if they do. Some have been outraged by this, stating that the police need to focus on more serious crimes.I’m assuming that my new hot shorts from American Apparel would not go over well.
