Years ago when Festival was at Wilton, the waterhole had one rule: no mundane clothes. It was part of the event, after all, so one was required to make "an attempt at pre-17th-century garb". So most people just went in naked, and that was fine.
So one time I got to use the perfect line, greeting someone in the tavern whom I'd first met at the waterhole: "Oh sorry, I didn't recognise you with your clothes on".
I am deeply shocked and saddened that (if?) nobody has ever said that to you. What is the world coming to?
i was on the other side to that. we had quite a few life drawing models. i was working as a delivery driver at a pizza shop and a new guy started one night. we were looking at each other for ages. he said to me that he knew me from somewhere and i agreed. it wasn't until later that night that i realised i knew him from life drawing class. as the model. i didn't know how to tell him that so i was relieved when he said to me that he thought he'd seen me around uni. (he'd modeled while i was at tafe, and was an art student at uni when i went there afterwards.) and yes, people do look different naked. :)
