Fashion criminals: Bad celebrity photos and fashion disasters

Shy’m: Not shy

PPF 025333 Shym: Not shy

It’s hard to believe that until this week, we didn’t even know who Shy’m was. And now her image will forever more be burned into our retinas, and no amount of eyeball bleach will ever make them feel clean again.

Funny how things work out, isn’t it?

Would you wear… your bra in public?

Mark couldn’t believe Zoe was letting her bra straps show…

You’re probably wondering who these two are. Well, they’re  Mark Wright and Zoe Hardman. They’re on TV in the UK. One of them is wearing her bra on the red carpet. Yes, we know it’s covered by a think layer of sheer fabric, but a thin layer of sheer fabric does not a “dress” make, so we stand by our original statement: she is wearing a bra on the red carpet. And that makes us wonder: would you? 

Celebrities, you see, have been doing this kind of thing fairly often recently. They think nothing of going out in public in little more than a bra and a net curtain. Sometimes it’s not even a particularly nice bra.

Obviously we “don’t understand fashion”, so we’re not down with this look at all, and will be slapping the cuffs on young Ms Hardman as soon as we’re done typing this. Before we do, though, tell us: have you ever gone out in your bra? Would you? Is NOT going out with your bra showing one of those fashion “rules” that are now totally defunct and only for fuddy-duddys, i.e the type of people who go around saying, “A lady never appears in public without her panty hose!” and “OMG, WHITE! AFTER LABOR DAY!”

Still, at least we won’t have to worry about visible bra straps any more, if so…

Michelle Pfeiffer and Sarah Jessica Parker work the midaxi at the premiere of New Year’s Eve

Three things:

1. We can’t quite believe we used the word “work” in this context. Don’t you just HATE it when people talk about “working” their clothes, or – even worse – “rocking” them. Just wear them, for God’s sake!

2. It’s not even appropriate because, well, this “midaxi” length isn’t really “working” on either of them, is it? And let’s face it: neither Michelle Pfeiffer or Sarah Jessica Parker are in the first flush of youth, but even so: there’s something just very “grandma’s closet” about midaxi length florals, isn’t there?

3. Michelle Pfeiffer is very close to killing an angel here. Angels, be warned!

Your thoughts?

Also from last night’s UK Fashion Awards, here’s Stella McCartney helpfully demonstrating why we hate jumpsuits so much.

Thank you, Stella: you can stand down now.

*Note: there’s no such thing as the Worst Jumpsuit Award. But there should be.

Pippa Middleton in “leggings as pants” shocker

Pippa Middleton got herself a thorough telling off from some sections of the media this week for allegedly committing a “Leggings As Pants” crime.

Now, at first glance, we had just assumed she was wearing a pair of black skinny jeans/jeggings. It can be hard to tell the difference these days, can’t it? It’s only when you see the rear view that the truth becomes apparent:

In fact, apparently it has driven many a woman to the plastic surgeon, in a bid to get one just like it. Does the “perfect” rear get a free pass when it comes to leggings as jeans, though, or is Pippa just as guilty as anyone else who goes down the slippery slope of replacing pants with … non-pants?

What do you think?

Awkward Moments in Fashion: Lauren Pope at the Twilight premiere

lauren pope red dress Awkward Moments in Fashion: Lauren Pope at the Twilight premiere

Lauren Pope attended the London premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 in this slinky red number a couple of nights ago. And honestly, we wouldn’t be surprised if she’s still standing there, in that exact same pose. Well, would YOU feel comfortable moving around in THAT dress. There just isn’t enough Hollywood tape in the world. Or enough eyeball bleach.

Lauren, for those of you not from these shores, is one of the “stars” of the show The Only Way is Essex. You’ll probably be seeing a lot more of her. Probably literally. Just a quick FYI, there…
