Allie Brosh of Hyperbole And A Half presents a very intuitive guide to this summer's fashion for bears. For more bear fashion tips, head on over here to read the whole article.

• 1. Dark Colors

  

  Wear dark colors, like eggplant. They help hide the stains that naturally occur when you spend your days mauling elk and rubbing against trees.

• 2. Vertical Stripes

  

  Vertical stripes are slimming and can also help to disorient prey animals, making them easier to kill.

• 3. Define Your Waist

  

  As a bear, you are probably well aware of the unflattering side effects of preparing for winter. To help you maintain some of your ladylike curves while you are out in the hills stuffing your fat face with berries and snails, you should wear cinched-waist dresses and shirts. This style creates the illusion of a small waist and can disguise a bulging, snail-and-berry-filled stomach quite well.

• 4. Tankinis & Swim Skirts Are A Bear's Best Friend

  

  Once summer rolls around, you will probably have gained back almost ever ounce of adipose tissue you lost during hibernation. I’m sorry. That’s just how surviving in the wild goes; you have to sacrifice your waistline so that you can make it through another winter. The good news is that tankinis and swim-skirts can do a great deal to cover up your furiously jiggling hindquarters as you lumber across a meadow.
