Style on Trial: The Boob-Window Dress, as seen on Taylor Cole

101117A1 COLE T B GR 01 Style on Trial: The Boob Window Dress, as seen on Taylor Cole

Of late, The Fashion Police have been becoming increasingly concerned about the proliferation of what we call The Boob Window Dress – i.e. dresses which serve no other purpose other than to provide a “window” for the wearer’s breasts, leaving onlookers with the uncomfortable feeling that they’re at some really weird kind of zoo.

This dress, worn by The Event’s Taylor Cole, certainly allows us to get a good look at Taylor’s mammaries in their natural habitat, and we’re sure its presence here will generate at least one comment from a male reader telling us that “if you girls only knew how much we love it when you almost completely bare your breasts in public!” (Yeah, no kidding, we’d never have guessed…), but what do the rest of you think of it?

You’ll find some more images under the jump to help you make up your mind…

Rick Owens’ hooded leather boots go undercover

rick owens leather hooded boots Rick Owens hooded leather boots go undercover

Aha! An undercover agent, sent in by Rick Owens to try and infiltrate The Fashion Police and find out all of our secrets. Sadly, however, Rick’s going to have to try harder with this: we may not have realised there was a wedge boot under there, but we couldn’t help but notice that the person wearing them would look a bit like a shire horse, albeit one with a penchant for leather, so we were able to quickly take action to uncover the criminals.

Want to see what’s underneath the cloak?

Primark Winter 2010: The Collection

 Now that Zara and H&M have finally gotten their acts together and set up transactional websites, Primark is the last remaining big UK brand which doesn’t allow us to view their clothes online, forcing us to haul ass to the nearest store instead, to do battle with the crowds.

We’re going to keep on hoping they get themselves an online store someday soon, but until that blessed day arrives, here’s a quick look at the current winter collection, for the benefit of those of you who don’t happen to have a nearby store to visit.

Dress Like a Toddler: Alexander Wang ribbed hooded onesie

Alexander Wang ribbed hooded onesie Dress Like a Toddler: Alexander Wang ribbed hooded onesieAs you can probably tell from the title of this post, this is a ribbed hooded onesie from Alexander Wang.  And we’re going to stop Mr Wang right there because anything called a onesie?  Has no place on a fashion retail site for adults.  Yes it looks like it could be nightwear, but why then has it been styled with high heels?  Put the hood up and it looks even worse: Continue reading

Tears of a clown? Tears of the Fashion Police: Boohoo’s Adina Paisley Stripe Jumpsuit

Adina Paisley Stripe Jumpsuit Tears of a clown? Tears of the Fashion Police: Boohoos Adina Paisley Stripe JumpsuitOh dear Boohoo. Where do we start? Perhaps with the garish colours? The fact that “paisley” and “stripe” should never stand alongside one another? That slightly limp looking frill?

As the seventies flashback continues to take hold we can’t help but fear the clown look will continue to gather momentum. So, if you’re as scared by clowns as we are, we say it’s time to take a stand – to stop the Pierrot army in its tracks before things go too far…

Perhaps we’re too late. Or perhaps you could pull this off? If so, you can pick the jumpsuit up here for a very reasonable £18.
