Rick Owens and the Attack of the Nun Clones

Some say there is nothing hotter than a Catholic School girl, but in Rick Owens world it’s the naughty nun that needs some attention.

I’m on the fence with this collection of nunnery wear. It looks like Rick, who took a page from the Dark Knight for his last collection is off to the monastery with his new look, a collection of updated papal remnants to bring you back to your days at church.

So what do you think indies? Has Rick Owens finally reinvented the nun for a new generation or will the Pope not be pleased?

An Italian priest is hosting an unconventional beauty pageant for nuns this September called “Miss Sister 2008.” Not to be mistaken wiht Miss Sister Italy. This sacred-with-only-a-touch-of-the-profane event shows that nuns can be beautiful as well as beatific. The good father assures the public that there will be no swimsuit competition.

What about a talent show? Will someone be chosen for miss spirituality? Miss heavenly body? Most prayful? And what’s the payoff for the winner? An all expense paid trip to the Vatican? Does she travel the world as a goodwill ambassador for the Catholic church? We’ll see the true side of how these sisters act when they strut there God-given stuff before the judges (and the Big G-man upstairs). To this we say, “Amen!”
