Please don't stare at my stag and other fashion mistakes

Frankly, I don't know how Gucci stays in business.
I was thumbing through my monthly issue of GQ when I found the '07 equivalent of the Neru Jacket.
This serious looking fellow is wearing what appears to be a google earth photo of some Iowa farm land with a bizarre silver stag attached to his belt. Maybe it's a miniature hat tree.
His breast pocket is filled with two ferrets mating. Good thing this is a still photo. There is also a military ornament of some kind -- something left over from the army or the store's security tag.
Then, there's the Docker's guy. To complement the faded lobster-pink sweater he's wearing a tartan dish towel around his neck. That natty little bit of adornment will cost him a least 8 MLs of testosterone.
Below, a Matt Damonish model for Polo is wearing a heavy London Fog overcoat and some shorts. Trust me, that's the kind of outfit that will have your neighbors burning a closet on your front lawn.
Let us move on to the Gorton brothers. Two men fishing in a storm wearing designer suits and moss colored plastic boots. The only thing these guys will be catching are emails from that Senator caught in the men's room. It's the kind of photo that makes you pray for a rogue wave.
Finally, Gucci boy has changed his outfit. He's turned the brown tartan into a shirt and added a dead squirrel dickey on top of a turtle neck dickey. (The double dickey) He's also holding a man-bag with a raccoon's tail attached. Nice touch. I have no idea what the pinky ring is about. My guess is a desperate cry for help.
