(
n.) A strategically designed sweater that has a piece of fabric at the
top which hugs fabric completely around the neck. Mostly worn more recently by snobby artists (usually accompanied by a beret also
black) or mom's over 35. However, the sweater originated to solve an age old problem of hiding hickeys. The neck is one of the most common places for visible hickeys to appear after a passionate make out session. The next day when you have to have dinner with you
parents (or maybe even grandparents!) the hickey
will make them think you are some kind of sex fiend. A fashion designer had this problem and after realizing all of their scarves were dirty (don't ask, that is more sex fiend stuff) quickly sewed extra fabric on
top of an old sweater to completely conceal around the neck and thus the hickeys. Now
men and women can wear hickeys around their families and everyone
will think they just have no fashion sense.
Girl: "Tomorrow I have to spend
Christmas visiting relatives."
Guy: "So no Chistmas Eve necking then?"
Girl: "Oh we totally can neck all night, I have an
ugly Turtleneck Sweater I can wear!"
