The Eurovision Clothes Contest

Fans of the Eurovision Song Contest will be pleased to hear that there’s another culturally significant Euro-centric competition on the scene — the Eurovision Clothes Contest.

As you’ve probably guessed, it’s pretty much exactly the same as the song contest, but with clothes instead of songs. The contest debuted earlier this year in a disused chemical factory in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and was, by all accounts, a rip-roaring success.

Above you may have noticed France’s entry. An early favourite thanks to his laid back, casual style and novel use of domesticated animals, he was eventually pipped to the post by Greece’s ingenious entry — a goat wearing a hat.

It’s safe to say we’re already excited about next year’s contest.

France’s entry is 5'10 and wears...
