Shoes! With moustaches! They’re what we’ll all be wearing next summer, apparently: or so Louis Vuitton would have is believe. Both of these styles appeared on the runway as part of their Spring/Summer 2010 show, but luckily for you, you don’t have to wait until then to try them on, because we’re presenting them to you now, as part of this week’sWear or Die. You’re welcome!
Yes, readers, you must pick one of these shoes to wear in public – or you must die. But which ones will you choose? Leave your answers in the comments box, and remember: death is not an option!

London Fashion Week has been and gone, but we’re still having recurring nightmares about some of the pieces featured in the House of Holland show, so we figured, what the hell! Let’s make our readers choose one of these outfits to wear… or die! And then we laughed like cartoon villains.
The two outfits we’ve chosen for you both feature a dash of denim. Would you rather wear that denim placed strategically over your private parts, as in option A, however, or in the form of a denim bra, worn with big pants and lots of lace, like option B? The choice is yours: just remember, however, that you must choose one outfit to wear – in this game, death is NOT an option!
So, what’s it going to be?

 It’s been a while since we’ve played Wear or Die, but as soon as we laid eyes on the two pairs of pants shown above, we knew we had to try and force you to wear them: or one pair of them at least.
That’s the task before you now, readers: imagine that The Fashion Police have stolen all of your clothes. Instead, we present you with these two pairs of trousers (and OK, we’ll let you wear a top and shoes with them – we’re not that mean), with the warning that if you don’t choose one pair to wear, you must die. Now, clearly you’re not going to want to die over a pair of pants, so tell us: which ones will you choose to wear? On the left, Henrik Vibskov’s zig-zag stripe harem pants or, on the right, ‘Dancefloor Trousers’ by Unique at Topshop? The choice is yours: enjoy!

We're thinking of changing the name of this column to Jumpsuit or Die, purely because we're fairly certain that even if we live to be 100 years old, we still won't have time to round up all of the hideous jumpsuits that are drawn to our attention.
Today we bring you two creations that we think would make good choices for the Fashion Police prison uniforms. We must look into that. On the left, a denim jumpsuit by Alexander Wang, modelled by someone who was too ashamed to show her face. On the right, meanwhile, a denim jumpsuit from ASOS, modelled by, um, Rihanna.*
You, readers, must wear one of these jumpsuits or die. So, which one will you choose?
*Note: not really.

Paisley print is one of The Fashion Police's pet hates. We don't really know why this is: it just IS. And so while neither of the two dresses shown above would ever make it into our closet, who knows, those of you who don't share our dislike of all things paisley and voluminous will probably find this a particularly easy edition of Wear or Die.
This round of the game pits Marc Jacobs against Alexander McQueen, and mini against maxi. Which one would you wear, assuming you had to wear one – or die?
For this edition of Wear or Die, we've chosen to items of clothing connected only by the fact that they're both silver, and both on the shiny side. They're also both "on trend" (yes, that phrase makes us cringe, too), so who knows, you may even like one or both of them, in which case, this will be a relatively easy choice for you. So let's get on with making it, shall we?
This week you choose between ASOS's mirror foil body con dress (£35) and River Island's sequined harem pants (£34.99). You may choose your accessories yourself (sorry, no long overcoats allowed!), but you must wear one of the items above: or die.
Which would you choose?

We know jumpsuits tend to appear on Wear or Die more than most items of clothing, but really, so many ugly jumpsuits, so little time: can you blame us?
Today we want to know what you'd wear, faced with a clear choice between psychedelic silk from New Look (option A) or 80s-print viscose with built-in hips from Miss Selfridge (option B).
You must choose one, or, sorry, but you must DIE!
This morning The Fashion Police woke up with a burning question on our minds: what would we have to do to persuade our readers to dress like Katie Price/Jordan, and make them think it was a good idea? And then the answer came to us: make the only other option dressing like Katy Perry, in the strange half suit/half dress outfits which was one of her costumes at the MTV Europe music awards. Simple!
As it happens, both women shown here are wearing weirdly indecisive outfits, but what we want to know is this: if you HAD to dress like one of them – or face death – which one would you choose? It's the "Katy/Katie" edition of Wear or Die, folks, and it's up to you to decide: which Katy/Katie would YOU rather be?

This edition of Wear or Die was written by Ms Jenn of {Bits of Beauty})> Ms Jenn writes…
"Ladies and Gents, welcome to Wear or Die: Alexander McQueen edition. I guess we could also call this one, the Odd Bird edition. Mr McQueen is a well-known genius and darling of the fashion world. We all go raving mad over possibly owning a piece of McQueen fashion royalty. So, how generous and fabulous, that you get to choose one of two runway looks? That's right, you get to wear the entire look, including the shoes.
Isn't that fabulous? Wait, no? You fool, do you think you have a choice?! Oh wait, you have the choice to DIE, which in any case, we might just bury you in the outfit out of spite. So, which one is it going to be? Option A, the freezing cold dove in a straight jacket or Option B, the weird crested rooster from the county fair? (Bonus points for wearing the wax lips)."

It's been a while since we had any new Lady Gaga outfits to show you, so today we thought it might be fun to not just SHOW you these ones, but to actually make you WEAR them, too. Well, fun for us, anyway.
Yes, it's the Lady Gaga edition of Wear or Die, and your task is to decide which of the outfits above you'd choose if you had to wear one of them - or die. Would you go out in only your underwear, as Lady G seems to have done in outfit A, or would you be a little more covered up in the ripped leggings of outfit B? The decision is yours, readers: which one will you choose?
