At long last, fashion designers and retailers seem to have cottoned on to the fact that droopy crotches just ain’t flattering.
So they’ve started to give their garments droopy hips, instead.

This particular example comes from BooHoo.com, who describe the leggings as “animal print”. At least we can take comfort in the fact that they actually just look plain black, eh? Small mercies, readers: small mercies.
Aww, would you look at that! The orphans from Oliver Twist are all grown up! And doing pretty well, too, by the looks of things, because even although these pants look like they’ve just been dragged from the nearest dumpster, they actually have a combined value of £858 / $1,422.
Makes you wish you’d kept those ancient old gardening trousers now, doesn’t it?
There are people in the world who’d happily pay that much for these, though, and if you’re one of them, they’re available at Yoox.com
Feet just shouldn’t have faces. They have no need of them. Or not as far as we were concerned, anyway. It looks like Dolce & Gabbana disagree, though, because if you wear these suede wedges, you won’t just be two-faced, you’ll be three-faced. You’ll also be kept awake at night by the thought of those creepy faces sitting inside your closet, making the shoes look almost like they’re alive. Alive and about to EAT you. Or maybe that’s just us.
We do like our shoes to have a bit of personality, but these have taken it too far for us, , although we confess that we would be interested to see what they actually look like like on a foot. What do you think of them? If it’s love at first look, and you can’t wait to have them in your life, they’re £709 and you can buy them here.
This Citizen’s Arrest was made by our own Rock Hyrax, who spotted this classic case of Clothes-That-Are-Stuck-Together in Asda last week.
As Rock says, we don’t tend to expect high fashion from Asda, but that’s no excuse for them to go around thinking its OK to take innocent clothes and stick them together. It’s NOT OK, Asda. We’re perfectly capable of putting blouses and knitwear together ourselves, should we choose to do so.
Wow. We would say more about this, but “wow” seems to be the only fitting word for Leona Lewis’s MTV Europe Music Awards dress, no?
We think Leona definitely wins Most Eye-Catching Award of the night but here are some more outfits for the Fashion Police jurors to examine. Remember to tell us what you think!
As far as skirts go, there’s “short”, and then there’s “short“. And then there’s “OMG, I totally forgot to finish getting dressed before leaving the house.”
Guess which category Melanie Brown here falls into?
Yes, Mel, they are indeed a very fine set of legs. But you’re still making us think of one of those nightmares where you find yourself out in public without your clothes on. (Or, in our case, with your clothes on, but your clothes are suddenly Crocs and harem pants. Aaaargh!) Remember: skirts are not the enemy. They are your friends.
Two of our favourite UK high street chains have dominated the Company Fashion Awards this year. River Island was named Best Fashion Retailer and won a further three awards, but ASOS.com wasn’t far behind, with a total of three awards.
Over 50,000 UK shoppers voted in these awards, and you’ll find a full list of the categories and winners under the jump. What do you think, though? Whose your best fashion retailer of the year?
