Woman Always Wears Fake Wedding Dress To Bar To Deter Unwanted Advances

ANDOVER, MA—Explaining that the only way she could get people to stop hitting on her was to pretend she was married, local woman Carla Watters told reporters Thursday she always wore a fake wedding dress to bars to deter unwanted advances. “Before, men would harass me constantly, but now that I can just flash them my long white ball gown, they get the message immediately,” said Watters, who added that it was extremely easy to go online and buy a convincing imitation wedding dress, veil, and detachable overskirt that she could slip on at a moments notice. “It’s great. The second they notice I’m wearing about 30 pounds of bridal couture complete with lace, corset, and a tiara, they apologize and tell me they had no idea I had a husband. Plus, it was so cheap compared to the real thing. It only cost me like $1,500.” At press time, Watters could not be reached for comment, as a man had cornered her and repeatedly assured her he didn’t care that she was currently being walked down the aisle.
