With all of the fashion weeks and award shows we’ve had to police this month, Christopher Kane’s latest collection for Topshop almost managed to slip under the Fashion Police radar.
We’re correcting that now, though, by bringing you a selection of items for the new line, including this crocodile print dress which is basically a cheaper version of the gorilla prints Kane released as part of his main collection earlier this year.
You can view more of the collection for Topshop below the jump, or at the Topshop website. Be warned, though: you can only buy one of each item, and no more than five pieces from the collection in total. What do you think? We reckon Lady Gaga has a lot to answer for…
“Why do these exist?” asked Fashion Police reader, Siobhan, who made a citizen’s arrest on these floral print harem pants, before sending them in to us for incarceration.
Truly, Siobhan? We don’t know. In fact, we have absolutely no idea why harem pants continue to pose as “fashion” when we all know the pair above, for instance, are just a giant paisley tablecloth knotted between the legs.
If anyone DOES know why harem pants still continue to plague us in the name of fashion, please do feel free to enlighten us…
Tartan’s big this winter. What do you mean, AGAIN?
This kind of tartan, though? This kind is only big in the Fashion Police jail. And, of course, at certain Irregular Choice outlets. Don’t say we didn’t warn you…
OK, the current passion for trashy fashion has gone too far: look, it’s even managed to get Nicola Roberts from Girls Aloud in its vile clutches!
Nicola, as those of you familiar with Girls Aloud will know, tends to be one of the quieter members of the band, so we were even more surprised when she showed up at the “30 Days of Fashion and Beauty” event at The Natural History Museum in London this week, more or less topless. We’d have been less surprised if it had been Sarah Harding, say, who’d chosen to get her boobs out for the camera, but Nicola Roberts? No. Unless, of course, she just got tired of Cheryl Cole getting all the attention recently…
Whatever the reasons, we’re sending this top to Fashion Police jail. Let this be a lesson to us all.
Our old friend Mark Fast (he of “mini dress for hookers” fame) has caused a bit of a stir at London Fashion Week by deciding to use “plus sized” models in his show. Apparently a a freelance stylist and casting director working for the designer quit over the casting of the models, and..
(No, wait. Before we go any further with this, we just have to say: size 14 is “plus sized” now? Really? Because none of the models who appeared in this show was bigger than a UK 14 (about a US size 12), and last we checked, that was nowhere near “plus sized”. But we digress.)
Fast’s creative director, Amanda May, said: “We’re glad we stuck to our vision. We wanted to know that they don’t have to be a size zero to wear a Mark Fast dress. In fact, curvier woman can look even better in one.”
Unfortunately, we reckon the whole issue here was clouded by the decision to put the models in question in the kind of dresses that wouldn’t look good on ANYONE, regardless of their dress size (and which would land you in the Fashion Police jail if you tried to wear them in public). But what do you think of Mark Fast’s decision, folks? The can of worms is now open …
AAARGH! Little faces on your thighs! Barbies on your butt! RUN! Run like the wind! The Fashion Police can do a lot of things, but we’re rendered almost powerless by the Barbie Clones. They scare us. We’re typing this from behind the sofa, in fact. Have they gone yet? Have the Killer Barbie Clones gone? We can feel their little eyes burning holes in us rightthisverysecond. We’ll be sleeping with one eye open tonight, that’s for damn sure…
Sweaty armpits getting you down? Don’t worry, with the Fish Net Mesh Hoody, you’ll have a constant source or air-conditioning, right where you need it most!
We actually can’t decide whether this falls into the “ugly but practical” category (good for workouts, perhaps?) or just the “completely useless” one. Your thoughts on this most important of matters would be appreciated.
