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?

This week's Wear or Die is a special treat for those of you who love jumpsuits. And for those of you who don't – well, it is Wear or Die, what do you expect?
For those of you who've never played before, a quick recap of the rules:
1. You must pick one of the outfits above to wear – on pain of death!
2. Death is not an option. Sorry.
See, easy, isn't it? Well, it would be easy if it wasn't a choice between a droopy crotch or massive hips, obviously. But it is, so let's decide: which outfit would you choose?

Oh yes, we went there. We went to Ami Clubwear, and we came back with two dresses which we will now force our readers to choose between: or die.
And if there's anyone out there who DOESN'T choose death on this one, we'll be absolutely amazed.
With that said, as regular readers will know, in this game, death is not an option. For those of you just joining us, you must choose one of the two outfits above to wear. In public. If you don't choose one – you die! So, which one will you choose?

Our investigations in the Comme des Garcons section of Yoox.com yesterday made us wonder if there was anything else there we should be taking note of.
These two sack dresses aren't in the same league as those infamous bloomers, of course, but they did make us wonder: if we had to wear one of them – or die – which one would we choose?
That's the question facing you now, readers: would you rather be the madwoman in the attic or an extra from Little House on the Prairie? You decide! It's either that … or death!

It's often said in our comments section that the Fashion Police "hate" all jumpsuits. We'd just like to take this opportunity to say that this isn't true: we don't actually hate ALL jumpsuits: just the ones that look like this.
(We do hate almost everything that has a swirly, psychedelic kind of print on it, though. That's certainly true.)
With that said, we present the two outfits above as this week's Wear or Die dilemma. Option A comes from Mango, and is £55. Option B is a Topshop creation, which doesn't seem to be available to buy yet, but don't worry, that doesn't stop us offering it to you today.
You know the rules, folks: you must pick one of the above outfits to wear in public, or face certain death. You must wear the outfits as shown above – no covering them up with coats, dresses or other items!
So, which one will you choose?

We haven't had a footwear edition of Wear or Die for a while now, so without further ado, let's sit back, relax and… try to imagine what we'd do if someone forced us to choose one of the pairs of shoes above – on pain of death.
Would the relative comfort of Option B allow you to overlook the fact that you're essentially wearing a couple of rodents (moles? We're not sure: answers on a postcard) on your feet, or do you prefer to stick your feet in a giraffe instead?
Mole, giraffe or … death: what's it to be?

This week's Wear or Die was inspired by Fashion Police reader Molly, who suggested we force our readers to dress up like Cher – or die.
"Well, why the hell not?" we thought. And so it is that today you find yourselves in the unenviable position of choosing between one of the two Oscar night fashions above. Neither are outfits for the faint-hearted, but what if you HAD to wear one of them – or die? Which one would you choose?
The outfit on the left may look initially more frightening, but the one on the right reveals much more skin. Just to level out the playing field a little, we're going to allow you to ditch the hat/wig/whatever the hell that thing is shown in picture one. Don't say we're not good to you.
What's it going to be, then, readers: which outfit will you wear – or die!

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?

It may not be quite as well known as the New York/London/Paris/Milan events, but Buenos Aires has a Fashion Week too, and it's to Buebos Aires that we take you now, to ask the all-important question: if you had to wear one of the two outfits shown above – or die – which outfit would you choose?
You know the rules by now: you must wear the outfit as it's shown, and you must wear it in public. Or, you must die. Obviously no one would want to die over a silly old acorn/insect dress (would they?) so tell us: which option would you choose?
