Well, at least it’s better than The Urinal Dress, no?
Cheaper, too: this one is £1,295 from here.

Style on Trial: Shorts with visible pockets
Ah, the visible pocket shorts! This is hardly a new thing: in fact, every time we look at these, or others like them, we’re reminded of our teenage years, in which we’d hack off the legs of a pair of jeans to turn them unto cutoffs, only to go a little too far, and end up with the pockets hanging out the legs, to say nothing off our butt cheeks.
To actually create this look deliberately, though, by intentionally elongating the pockets on a pair of pre-made shorts… well, it’s like calling yourself “punk” and then buying all of your clothes artfully pre-ripped, isn’t it? And that’s exactly what’s happened here. In fact, the exaggerated length of these pockets gives them a bit of a droopy, sad-sack look to them, no?
What do you think of visible pockets on $100 shorts, readers? If you’re fully behind the idea, these ones are by Maison Scotch, and you can click here to buy them.

Fashion Boobs: Marc Jacobs’ circle sweater
OK. It doesn’t look totally like a pair of breasts. Mostly because no one has skin that pattern. But look: there’s just no way you can put two large circles, with smaller circles inside ‘em, right over your boobs and NOT prompt that comparison. And you can’t tell us that when Marc Jacobs came up with this one, he didn’t have a bit of a chuckle to himself and think, “Hehe! Boobies! I’m giving people fake boobies! And I’m charging them $800 for them!”
For yes, readers, it’s true: this sweater costs $800. Or $878.16, to be exact. We think the joke is on whoever buys it, no? Because people may not say it, but they WILL be thinking it. And by “it”, we mean, “Who the hell pays $800 for a boob sweater?”
Do you?

Back to the 80s with Betsey Johnson’s shoulderpad jacket
Crystal Carrington called, Betsey. She said she wants… actually, to be honest, she DIDN’T say she wants her jacket back. Nope, she said, “What are you thinking, woman? Not even I would wear this now!” Because it’s 2011, not 1983. Do you copy that, Betsey?
(Still love you, though.)

Frankenshoes: Acne ‘Pillion’ peep toe shoe boots
The words “peep toe boots” provided a strong clue that these were going to be Frankenshoes, but actually, the peep-toe element isn’t what we’re here to discuss. No, we’re simply concerned that this is anther example of the “unfinished shoe”. We’ve already shown you one such example, in the shape of Jeffrey Campbell’s ‘Benched Shoes’, but Acne’s ‘Pillion‘ look even more like someone knocked together a prototype using whatever bits of scrap material they could find lying around the workroom, then got bored and abandoned it. Which isn’t what we normally expect from a pair of £540 shoes.
Let’s bring out the ol’ devil’s advocate again, though. We COULD say that these are very creative, and… actually, that’s all we’ve got.
What do you think of them?

Handbag of the Week: Marc by Marc Jacobs ‘Classic Q – Francesca’ Leather Shopper
Marc Jacobs’ ‘Francesca’ shopper has been out for a while now, and The Fashion Police have been admiring it for a while, too. We love the slouchy, casual style of this bag, which is perfect for a day’s shopping, or even as a carry on for a short flight, but we must admit, it’s the beautiful teal colour that we really love.
This bag is available in a range of other colours too, including standard black and tan (we rather like the bright yellow version, but that’s just us), and is £343 from the Marc by Marc Jacobs line. Click here to buy it.
