We have commented on the proliferation of ugly or plain strange shorts of late. These are perhaps neither ugly nor strange, but definitely fall into the underwear as outerwear category. They will neither keep you warm nor cover your modesty – both characteristics we look for when choosing clothing we plan to wear out in public…
On the plus side, these babies retail at a measly £12, leaving you plenty of cash to splash on a second pair of hotpants or even leggings to wear underneath! Available from Boohoo.com.
Yes, it’s a shapeless dress (or kaftan as Monsieur de Castelbajac would prefer) and yes, that is Bambi and the skunk printed on the front. Want to dress like a toddler in Disney print? Well here’s your chance. This silk kaftan will set you back £475 but we’re not really sure where you would wear it. It’s not appropriate as work wear and we can’t see it working in a bar or restaurant as evening wear.
What do you think though? Can you think of somewhere appropriate to wear it, and, even if you can think of somewhere, would you want to wear it? If you would, you can buy it at ASOS.
Well, it sure is pretty… but is it $959 worth of “pretty”? We’ll let you be the judge of that one: while The Fashion Police are partial to the odd piece of extravagant underwear, the fact that it’s hidden underneath our clothes (or quickly discarded, in the case of the “strictly-for-the-bedroom” stuff) makes us reluctant to pay more than the monthly mortgage repayment for it, which means we’re clearly not part of the target audience for this one.
This set is by Christies, and the bra is covered in Swarovski crystals (hence the high price), while the matching g-string also has Swarovski details. If you want to wear them, we’re afraid you’ll have to wait until November 22nd to do it, but you can pre-order now at Louisa Via Roma: click here to do it!
Sometimes you can tell without even looking at an item that it’s going to be a Crime of Fashion.
This is one of those cases. Well, when you see the words “tie dye” AND “fringed” in the same product description, you know it’s probably not going to be good, hmm? What were Topshop thinking with this one, we wonder? Was the tie-dye not enough? Did they really have to think, “Hey, guys, let’s add a ‘hairy leg’ effect to this bad boy!” Apparently they did. The result is tie dye legs that look like they’ve been allowed to go “au natural” for years, and then been the victims of some creative shaving.
If all of that looks and sounds good to you, click here to buy them for £22.
Ah, it’s always embarrassing when someone turns up in costume the week after Halloween, isn’t it? This poor model probably thought her “rotting corpse” look would go down a storm, and ordinarily it would have: obviously this dress wouldn’t look like flesh on everyone, but on her it’s an almost perfect match, and she’s managed to get the “Stare of the Undead” look down perfectly, too!
Yes, they’re sheer. Yes, they’re animal print. Yes, they’re hotpants. Nope, they’re not underwear.
