"Pubic" Humiliation

"What do you call this look?" - A quasi-dreaded question I often get asked during my more "dressed up" days. I try to respond quickly to keep my answer honest, spontaneous, and hopefully funny. So I said "Winter Bar Mitzvah". Perhaps my mind was fixated on the fact that my wide-brimmed hat resembled Hasidic Jewish head-wear, while bundling up with fluffy textures like this Mongolian fur collar that looks like eighties pubic hair casually draped over my shoulders. I then displayed an awkward smile and uttered the words Mazel Tov because it was the only Hebrew phrase that I knew and was appropriate, especially after asking if I looked like a giant clump of pubes?
