Parents Steamed Over Racy Lingerie Window
GREENWICH, Conn. -- The mannequins in the Victoria's Secret window are supposed to turn heads. But lately, they've been getting the wrong kind of attention in downtown Greenwich.
Several mothers have complained the displays are too racy, and one parent filed a formal complaint at Town Hall.
The thong-clad mannequins have been the subject of several letters to The Greenwich Time, and officials in surrounding towns say they've heard similar complaints.
"I avoid walking by there purposely," Leora Levy told the newspaper. "I'm uncomfortable when I see things like that. And I'm not a prude."
In other news, noted local thong expert and spokesperson Fausto Uno Georgiyevich reacted to the story with indignance yet daintily danced around the touchy topic. "People can be SO thilly." Fausto positively declared. "You'd think they'd just witnessed a capital crime, like wearing white after Labour Day!"
