The Wearable Towel. After the Snuggie and then the Slanket debuted and took on the world this winter, it was only a matter of time before a new game came into town to please the masses during the warmer months. Talk has been spreading like wildfire about scandals and copyright issues with this towel that you can wear as a dress.  The Washington Post actually did a full news story on this monstrosity!
