Paris store offers free clothes for anyone arriving in their underwear

'Semi-Naked Party' at Paris clothing store: Desigual offers revealing deal for customers

It was clothing optional for any customer brave enough to show up in 30-degree F weather. The winners walked away with one free top and one free bottom each.

BY DAVID BOROFF / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 2013, 2:56 PM

You want free clothes? Then come in your underwear.

A Paris store offered the revealing deal Wednesday to the first 100 people who showed up dressed only in their skivvies.

Those lucky ones who attended the annual "Semi-Naked Party" at Desigual received one free top and one free bottom.

Many scantily clad men and women were lined up on Boulevard des Capucines when the clothing store opened at 9 a.m. despite temperatures in the 30s.


On Twitter, Desigual describes itself as "fun and unconventional. Our clothes are out of the ordinary and we dress people, not bodies."

The chain has stores across Europe, Canada and the U.S., including multiple locations in New York City. A "Semi-Naked Party" was also held in Barcelona this week.

Would you go to a store in just your undies for free clothes?

Sure. I wear boxers, which doesn't feel any different than wearing some shorts. I'd drop by in the boxers for some free clothes. lol

Well, heck in Paris would they have a size 20W tops 18W bottoms there? What would that be in European size... "American fat azzz" ???

They would throw a trash bag on me and hand me a pack of cigarettes and say "Eat these instead".

Paris in January? Yikes! Winter

Very fun promo, though. I'd take part if the weather weren't too cold.

I don't know how you guys walk around with those things.

This is one of those instances where I type, then delete, then type, then delete, then decide I'm keeping my mouth shut.

I don't like the confined feeling of tighty anythings. I enjoy the comfort of everything being able to move around. I have to adjust my pants if they pull in too tight when I sit down, too.

Edit: Unless of course you just ment, like, walking around in boxers in public. lol For that, I don't really have an answer.

Looking at the photo above, the only person wearing a coat outside is a photographer so I think that's against the rules. smile
