Put it under the shirt.

What country was this shirt made in? Many sweat shops have workers who don't really know how to sew much less the fninished product. I often either cut these off or resew them properly. I agree bad design and very bad taste ( like having a slip peeking out from under a dress) and very bad execution.

If we learned anything from Buffy it's that showing bra/shirt straps is sexy.

You're being silly. It's really not that big of a deal is it? Either just cut them off, or tuck them in where you can't see them. People waste a lot of time nitpicking about a bunch of stupid shit. Use some common sense.

Um, this site is called "This Is Broken," not "This Is A Huge Disaster, People Are Dying, Run, Run For the Hills!" Folks are allowed to post anything that is broken.

Clothing manufactured so that parts that are supposed to be hidden are forced to show, is broken.

Common sense says that hidden parts should not show. Yes, cutting them off is a solution, but why should a customer modify the product just to use it? Cutting off the straps damages the "hang it from a hanger" part of the product.

Felix stated "there's no way of putting on the top without the straps peeking out," so tucking them in was obviously not going to work. Yes, this is a problem with some women's clothing. Men's clothing does not usually the "hang it from a hanger" strap feature.

Just because you have personally never used or needed this product does not mean it is silly or easily fixed. Clothing is a multi-billion dollar business because it is very important in our culture. Just because it is not YOUR broken product doesn't mean it isn't broken.

It is broken. It's also ugly :-)

Pegleg, you are a loser. If nitpicky things like broken stuff you don't own bother you, then why are you even at this site? Go put CNN as your home page and leave the humor in life to the rest of us.

I have to agree with pegleg. Of course, I'd be a tiny bit annoyed, but how broken is it, really? The guy says he gets about 50 freakin' e-mails a week and only posts 5-7, then how come something that's just a tad inconvenienent and not even funny gets posted?

But it's not the poster's fault that their lame entry was chosen - it's just bad judgement on Mark Hurst's (creator) part

It's too bad this site doesn't live up to your expectations. You should just go back to working on your own site, "I am broken.com" :P

Broken. I don't wear dresses. (It isn't a gender thing, they just make me look way too dang fat.) I have seen my wife in dresses and I asked her. She's says it's broken. That should be good enough for any good husband.

Help me.

I don't care. Just don't buy the $%%!! thing and move on with your life.

Why not just cut them out? That's what I do.
