Long black evening gowns aren’t always the most exciting dresses out there. In fact, it can be hard not to look boring in them.
But we think Dannii Minogue has managed it here, don’t you?
In fact, we think she looks pretty damn stunning. And that’s even without taking into account the back view, which can see for yourselves under the jump…

We apologise in advance for this post. If you’re anything like us, it’s probably going to cost you a lot of money, because it concerns our new favourite website, theoutnet.com.
The Outnet is a discount fashion site brought to you by the people who run Net-a-Porter, so you can probably tell already just why it’s so dangerous to your bank balance. Let us give you an idea, though: Christian Louboutin shoes for £140. An Anna Sui dress for £54. Phillip Lim jeans, £33. NOW do you see why we’re excited about this?
Before you go getting TOO excited, though, be warned that truly amazing bargains like this are obviously going to be highly sought-after. and that means a lot of the stock sells out as soon as it hits the site, so if you want to get yourself a bargain, you’re going to have to be quick. Everything is guaranteed genuine, however, and they promise frequent stock updates, so bookmark it now, and check back often: we will be.

The Fashion Police are all about the stripes right now, and so when we came across this cute little Ted Baker clutch bag over at Oli, we knew we'd found our Handbag of the Week!
The stripes give this a bit of character, but it's not so loud it'll drown out the rest of your outfit, and the clasp fastening and chain strap give it a bit of a vintage feel, too. It's £45 and you can buy it here.

![Spl92917 012[1] Mischa Barton models various items from The Fashion Police jail](http://www.thefashionpolice.net/images/6a00d8341c873353ef01157023a985970b.jpg "Spl92917_012[1]")
She's doing this deliberately, isn't she? Please tell us she's doing it deliberately, as some bizarre kind of What Not to Wear demonstration. Either that or Mischa Barton is issuing a desperate cry for help, as she taunts us mercilessly with the saggy harem pants, those Louis Vuitton shoes and … well, actually, we can find no fault with the shirt. Er, nice shirt, Mischa! Maybe if we only look at you from the waist up? Would that work?

![Spl93958 001[2] Case Closed: Lady Gaga is the one whos been buying all the shants (Post updated with upper body pic too!)](http://www.thefashionpolice.net/images/6a00d8341c873353ef01156f2ccfb5970c.jpg "Spl93958_001[2]")
As regular readers already know, The Fashion Police love it when we’re able to finally close the file on a case that’s been puzzling us for months, so today we’re pleased to announce that we have finally been able to answer the question: who on earth buys all those shants we keep arresting?
It’s Lady Gaga.
Well, of COURSE it is. D’uh!
UPDATE! This situation was actually worse than we’d first suspected. Take a look under the jump to see the top half of the outfit, in a photo taken later that night, minus the pink wig. Possibly not safe for work.

Ah, summer, you were just made for dresses like this,weren’t you? And the fact that the dress in question is a relatively affordable $60? Well, that just makes us love it even more! Get it here.
