Cute pants and terrible trousers

Crime of Fashion? Sass & Bide ‘The Introduction’ colourblock pants

sass bide introduction pants Crime of Fashion? Sass & Bide The Introduction colourblock pants

If this is what “The Introduction” is going to look like, we think we can do without being introduced, don’t you? Because it may be only a very small cameltoe, but if you look closely…it’s there. And once seen, it can never be unseen, can it?

Stuck Together Clothes Crimes: R13 leather stretch and denim jeans

stuck together clothes crimes Stuck Together Clothes Crimes: R13 leather stretch and denim jeans

You know when you wear your denim hotpants OVER your leather trousers? It can be kind of uncomfortable, can’t it? Thank goodness, then, for R13, who’ve solved the problem we didn’t even know we had, by creating this shorts/pants hybrid, which gives you all the, er, “style” of denim-shorts-over-leather-pants, without the discomfort of it. And all of sudden, the world is a better place, except not really, because seriously, WHO DOES THAT? Who wears denim shorts over leather pants? Or ANY shorts over ANY pants? And why would you want to pay £521 to do it?

We don’t know the answer to any of these questions. We do, however, know that this item is headed straight to Fashion Police jail: you can click here to liberate it.

Dress Pant Sweatpants: wear sweatpants to the office!

dress pant sweat pants Dress Pant Sweatpants: wear sweatpants to the office!

Look at this lucky dude, everyone: he’s having a quick 40 winks on his office floor, and he’s as comfortable as a baby. And why? Because he’s wearing sweatpants to work, of course! Dresspant sweatpants, to be exact: the sweatpants that are designed to look exactly like… dress pants. Well, we already have pyjama jeans: it was really just a matter of time before something like this came along, wasn’t it?

Happily, these are NOT pyjamas, so that guy sitting next to you on the train, or in the boardroom probably ISN’T wearing the same clothes he slept it (although you never really know these days, do you?) so these are basically just a more comfortable way to dress for the office, with only you knowing that you’re secretly wearing sweats.

What do you think? Want to buy a pair, either for yourself, or for the man in your life? You can click here to pre-order a pair – be aware, though, that these have proved so popular, the first run sold in two weeks: these are some popular pants!

Crime of Fashion? Markus Lupfer French lace trousers

markus lupfer french lace trousers Crime of Fashion? Markus Lupfer French lace trousers

You know, we’ve always assumed that if people did wear lace trousers, they’d probably wear them with something more than just their knickers underneath. Like, oh we don’t know: leggings, maybe? Tights? Even cycle shorts?

Apparently not, though.

These are by Markus Lupfer and they’re $760. Because that’s how much it costs these days to look like you got dressed in the dark…

Citizen’s Arrest: When Are Shorts Too Short?

too short shorts Citizens Arrest: When Are Shorts Too Short?

These shorts were arrested by Fashion Police reader Florence, who suggests that these are the answer to the question “how short is too short?” as it pertains to shorts. We’re inclined to agree with her, because, honestly, when we look at these photos, all we can think is “ouch!” and “that poor girl”. Modelling is hard, indeed. And we hope they didn’t sell the sample pair…

What do you think, though? Too short? Just right? Innocent? Guilty? The day of judgement has come for these shorts: now judge away!

Alexander Wang, we herby find you guilty of making these shorts sad. We sentence you to wear these shorts for the rest of your life. OK, for a week: we think that would be punishment enough, don’t you?

Leggings Are Not Pants: a reminder

While we were putting together our post on rainbow-coloured fashion items earlier today, we came across this timely reminder that leggings are not pants:

And it’s not just camel toe you have to worry about, if you catch our drift.

 

Sass & Bide make another attempt to get you to wear your PJs in public

designer pjs1 Sass & Bide make another attempt to get you to wear your PJs in public

 

Comfortable, elastic waistband? Loud, plaid pattern? Yes, we’re dealing with a Pyjamas in Public situation, folks: can someone call in the special forces?

Designer PJs have always puzzled and appalled us. For one thing, you’re paying $365 for a pair of PJ bottoms, when you could get exactly the same look for a mere fraction of the price at Target. Or, you know, anywhere else that sells ACTUAL sleepwear. For another thing? You’re out in public in your pyjamas. Or, at least, you look like you are. Those stilettos are fooling no one, sister: wear these, and you may as well not bother getting dressed at all – just roll out of bed, slip on some shoes, and you’re out the door!

Would you be able to wear these in Tesco, though? We think you’d get thrown out, no matter how many times you yelled, “But they’re SASS & BIDE!” What do you think?
