 Criminy!
Our first thought upon glancing at this image was, “Wow, the only thing that would make this worse would be if it was a jumpsuit rather than a dress!”
Then we realised that it IS a jumpsuit rather than a dress. A metallic-tiered jumpsuit. A £1,875 metallic tiered jumpsuit. Suddenly we’re very afraid. It’s like a vision of what people in the 70s thought the future would look like: and they were RIGHT. The future DOES look shiny and droopy, and it DOES come with an enormous price-tag: or at least it does for those of you who’re planning to buy this. Anyone? Head over to Net-a-Porter if so.

It’s time for part two of our latest Style Challenge, in which we asked you what you’d wear with those nautical stripes that keep popping up everywhere right now. Here’s how you answered!
1. Julia’s outfit:

We really want to like this Dior Couture gown, and actually, we DO like the colour and shape. In fact, we love everything except the way it draws attention to the boobs, and not in a good way. In fact, the whole bust area just looks a little clumsy to us, which is a same, because it’s an otherwise stunning gown. What do you think?
 Stop! Don't move a muscle! Please. OK, you’d definitely need the ol’ tit tape for this shirt, because as Rock Hyrax pointed out LAST time we arrested Cheap Monday for their attempts to turn us all into flashers, if your breasts weren’t EXACTLY the right size and shape to guarantee they’d remain covered at all times, The Fashion Police would be the least of your worries: it would be the REAL police who’d be after you.
Again, we’re hoping this was designed to be worn as a layering piece. We’re just not that hopeful, though.

 If The Fashion Police had a regulation shoe to wear as part of our uniforms, these would probably be those shoes.
OK, we’re kidding: they’d be Christian Louboutin’s Feticha pumps, and we wouldn’t care if we broke an ankle chasing after fashion criminals in them.
But these are pretty cool, too.

The Fashion Police have been feeling under the weather this week, so huge thanks to Lauren of A Typical Atypical for arresting this item for us!
Lauren writes:
I am a sometime fan of lace, and a sometime fan of jumpsuits, but only ever when they actually work. I won’t for example, love a jumpsuit purely because it clothes me head to toe and makes it difficult to go to the loo – but I will love it if the fabric is gorgeous and the fit sublime. Which, I have to say, is not the case with this Stella McCartney jumpsuit.
You may look at the pattern and notice how delicate it is, but I advise you not to. Instead, I draw your attention to the figure hugging skintight fit, to the fact that it looks like you are naked underneath. To the big waist belt that makes even the bum and hips of the mannequin look huge! Oh, and then to add insult to injury, they have made all the edges into big zigzags, meaning that people who wear this end up resembling a certain woodland pixie.
Not a good idea unless you like looking like a naked toilet roll holder, Stella McCartney charges £2,865 for these!

 We really like the cut of January Jones’ Lanvin gown, but unfortunately the black colour is doing a pretty good job of hiding all that’s wonderful about it: and the slightly creased look in this photo isn’t helping much, either. We think this would’ve been stunning in a different colour: as it is, though, we’d have to give it ‘could’ve been so much better”. What about you?

 New Year: for some, it’s one of the best nights of the year, while for others it’s …not.
Whatever you’re doing this New Year, though, we want to know what you’ll be wearing while you’re doing it. Where will you be as 2009 gives way to 2010? More importantly: what will you be wearing? Tell us in the comments, and you may pass through the Checkpoint unhindered!
