When Twitter gets too deep into its own head, the results are mostly monstrous (See: the dress wars of 2015).
Every once in a while, though, a trend is born that can only be described as genuinely, un-ironically cute. Even the bloggiest of bloggers can't use their overwritten, hackneyed cynicism on it.
Discover the watermelon dress trend of 2017.
Here's how it works. People cut out a piece of watermelon in the shape of a dress, then superimpose it on an image of themselves so it makes them look like they're wearing a watermelon dress.

Fashion designers are already busy designing their "parsnip pants" for Fall 2017, but industry insiders are skeptical that root vegetables will catch on.
