Per People magazine, Jennifer Aniston recently took to her Instagram Stories to poke fun at one of the looks most closely associated with both Aniston and her “Friends” character, Rachel: the sleeveless turtleneck, an item which for many truly encapsulates the couture (and for others, couture-related missteps) of the “Friends” era. Most notably, Aniston herself did it in a roundabout way: through the lens of a cartoon published by The New Yorker.
As People summarized, Aniston’s post was a multi-slider, with the first featuring a cartoon published by the famously high-minded culture magazine. The cartoon itself depicted a woman scrutinizing a lone sleeveless turtleneck hanging in her closet while holding a knife, alongside the caption, “What time of year are you for!” The second slide of Aniston’s ‘gram contained a caption of her own: a single “shrug” emoji and a collage of Aniston’s Rachel sporting the same style of turtleneck at various points throughout the 10 seasons “Friends” aired on NBC.Â
No matter what your opinion on sleeveless turtlenecks might be, it’s safe to say that when it comes to Aniston versus The New Yorker cartoon, the score is “Rachel: 1; New Yorker: 0.”
