Per Wikipedia's page on Schiaparelli's Lobster Dress:

"Dali saw lobsters as symbolic of sexuality. The lobster is placed low on the dress, between the legs of the wearer, with the tail of the lobster fanning upward toward the wearer's Mons Veneris, and its claws towards her calves. The lobster dress made its debut as part of Schiaparelli's Summer/Fall 1937 collection.

The dress was worn by Wallis Simpson in photographs taken by Cecil Beaton at the Château de Candé, shortly before Simpson's marriage to Edward VIII. Beaton's photographs of Simpson would be featured in Vogue magazine in an eight-page spread in June 1937.  The dress was included as part of Simpson's wedding trousseau. It was illustrated in Women's Wear Daily in May 1937 as a feature on Simpson's spring wardrobe. In her book, Nevertheless, She Wore It: 50 Iconic Fashion Moments, Ann Shen wrote that in Simpson's wearing of the dress "was charged with erotic flippancy" and gave the British public "even more reason to hate Wallis" in the aftermath of her husband's abdication as British monarch."

The PERFECT collab for summer Luke’s Lobster and Sweetgreen 🦞

I had to get the Luke's Lobster Roll Salad 🦞

Salad: chopped romaine lettuce, spring mix, new buttery focaccia croutons, shredded cabbage, raw carrots, basil and lemon, and is topped with sweetgreen's green goddess ranch dressing.

Delicious lobster, very fresh and perfect with the Green Goddess Dressing 😉

I never feel less like a person with their shit together than I do at an airport.

#overslept and missed my flight #got it rescheduled and made it to the airport #bought an iced coffee next to the gate #took one sip then dropped it all over the carpet #dressed in layers for the plane and now I’m overheating #wore an outfit without pockets so I’m juggling my phone #backpack doesn’t have a strap to keep it on the handle of my suitcase #just feel like a sweaty flustered mess!! #but when I get to NY we’re getting lobster rolls so at least there’s that

was at london comicon yesterday as lore, and bc i kept losing my data in the crowd nobody really recognised me. was ideal since i don't really like taking photos. but you know what was recognised?? one of the artists i was chatting to accurately identified my goddamn mantis shrimp tattoo.

#nobody ever gets it right they always think it's a lobster #however when she pointed and said omg mantis shrimp i felt my life flash before my eyes #bc for a second i thot she had seen the comic #me: i'm not dressed as a comicbook character #also me: has made myself a goddamn comic character
