Rick Owens at Paris Fashion Week S/S 2010

rick-owens-paris-fashion-we

Oh no! Don’t you just HATE it when you go to the bathroom and walk out with a piece of loo roll tucked into your knickers?

No wonder this poor model looks grumpy…

chris-benz-ss-2010Cheer up love, it might never happen! Oh no, wait: it already has, hasn’t it? You’re dressed like a cheerleader from The Muppets. Our mistake.

We somehow don’t think this look will catch on. Then again, we said that about harem pants, and look how THAT turned out. Just goes to show what WE know, eh? If everyone’s walking around in pom poms next Spring, feel free to remind us of this prediction and laugh…

New York Fashion Week: Marc Jacobs S/S 2010

Marc Jacobs - Runway - Spring 2010 MBFW

Had enough of see-through skirts? That’s too bad, because Marc Jacobs hasn’t had enough of making them. Sorry.

Hussein-Chalayan-fall-09

Builder's butt. It's one of the most heinous of fashion crimes, but luckily for us, it's a crime that tends only to be committed by actual builders. Oh, and by reality TV "stars", obviously.

Now, however, it's also being committed by models in Hussein Chalayan's Fall 09 fashion show. These aren't their real butts, of course: they're fake ones. But somehow we don't think that's going to get them off the hook if they ever find themselves facing the Fashion Police jury, do you?

  Almost every time we post photos of some crazy catwalk look or other, we'll get comments from people saying "Duh! It's ART! It's not like people will actually WEAR it!"

All we can say to those people is that they've clearly never heard of Phoebe Price, because here she is, running around Beverly Hills a couple of weeks ago, looking for all the world as if she's channeling an Alexander McQueen model from his S/S 09 show. No, we don't know why. We think/hope she was either doing it as a joke, or for a bet.

As for Alexander McQueen – well, we have no idea what his excuse is…

Agatha-Ruiz-de-la-Prada-Fal

  Ah, the wonderful world of high fashion! Humorous? Yes. Creative? Most definitely. Something you'd actually wear in real life? Um, not so much, sometimes.

What if you HAD to wear it in real life, though? What if some of those "for the runway only" creations were ALL you found in your wardrobe one morning, and you had no choice but to wear one of them? Or what if The Fashion Police forced you to wear one of them, on pain of death?

That's the difficult situation you find yourself facing today, readers. Above are two outfits from the Agatha Ruiz de la Prada Fall 2009 show. You must wear one of them – or die.

So, which one will you choose?

John-galiano-shoes

 We wonder if the models John Galliano uses in his shows have to sign some kind of disclaimer before hitting the runway. You know, something to the effect of "I promise not to sue you if I fall off the shoes and break my leg". Or maybe the shoes themselves come with a warning, like you get a Disney World: "You must be this tall to ride: pregnant women and those with a fear of heights are advised to avoid."

To this, we would also urge those with a fear of pom poms (What?! It's a real phobia, seriously!) to avoid these too. And those who ever have to, you know, walk

Kermit-the-frog

  Fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac spent the night in the Fashion Police jail last night following his senseless slaughter of one Kermit the Frog, and a dozen or so of his friends.

"It's horrific," said an anonymous witness of the designer's Paris Fashion Week show. "Kermit never hurt anyone – to see him murdered like this, and some model wearing his head as a trophy – well, it's just disgusting. Won't someone please think of the children!"

The Fashion Police are investigating the matter. Kermit: rest in peace…

Anne-Valérie-Hash

Yes, yes, we know it’s “art, dahlinks”, and probably/hopefully not destined to ever go into production, but that didn’t stop us almost choking on our doughnuts when we first laid eyes on it.

A window for your boobs! What will these designers think of next?

Victoria-beckham-dress-coll

 This season, Victoria Beckham is attending New York Fashion Week as a designer, rather than as simply a front-row celebrity, and trust us, we’re just as surprised as you probably are about that. Actually, though, we have a confession to make: we love almost everything about this collection of dresses, which Mrs Beckham is showing at the Waldorf Astoria, by appointment only. Sure, the simple, sheath-like shapes will be familiar to anyone who’s ever seen Victoria Beckham herself, but as with her last collection, we wouldn’t kick any of them out of the closet. Would you?

(More images under the jump, via Style.com, plus one of Victoria herself looking…interesting.)
