  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Ah, Jean Charles De Castelbajac! By now we’re used to his weird and (debatably) wonderful forays into the world of animals-as-clothing, but it would still be remiss of us not to bring your attention to these latest examples of his craft. Some designers just use leopard print, you see, but JCdC, he uses the whole ...

  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  What’s worse than a pair of harem pants?A pair of harem pants in a colour not too far removed from the shade of some people’s skin.Because, that way you won’t just look like you’re wearing a particularly ugly pair of pants. No, you’ll look like your wearing a particularly ugly pair of LEGS: ones with [...]

  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  There is a saying The Fashion Police have always found to be true. The saying is, “If you have to say it, you ain’t it”. You know all those people who go around telling you how “crazy” they are? Ever noticed how they always end up being some of the dullest people around? This is [...]

• Fashion Police for the Boys: Yohji Yamamoto boxer shorts

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  They’re exactly the kind of thing you’d expect to find in a tacky souvenir store in a tourist town. You know, the kind of place selling shirts that read “FBI: Female Body Inspector”?So why on EARTH are they selling for $925 and $1,010 respectively at Barney’s?Oh. Because they have “Yohji Yamamoto” ...

• Boots-Pretending-to-be-Shoes by Beatrix Ong

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  These Beatrix Ong boots probably thought they were being very clever when they decided to pose as shoes, using a flesh-coloured leg to make the illusion even more convincing.They’d probably have gotten away with it too, had it not been for the fact that the illusion isn’t even remotely convincing, and, actually, ...

• [Guest Post] Fashion on a Budget: Why is it so hard?

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Cassandra writes…Being a college kid and loving clothes and fashion doesn’t always mesh well.  Trying to buy cute, flattering clothes on a budget doesn’t have to be impossible, but lately, CERTAIN affordable stores (*cough* Forever 21 and Wet Seal, I’m lookin’ at you! *cough*) have decided that the best way ...

• Ralph Lauren makes most expensive slippers ever

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  OK, we’re exaggerating with the title of this post because a) they’re not technically slippers and b) we’re sure if we looked hard enough, we’d find a pair with an even more extravagant price tag.All the same, almost £500 for these? All we can say is that someone’s Grandpa is going to be a very [...]

• The Emperor’s new Miu Miu jacket

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Oh great: a shacket. Well, we’d had shants and shresses, so it was surely only a matter of time before someone decided to make a sheer jacket, no?As well as offering proof that people will, indeed, pay £265 for essentially nothing, this also has the dubious distinction of being possibly the most useless garment ...

• Fashion Police for the Boys: MJOLK Simonslouch trousers

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Well, well, well: looks like we women aren’t the only ones to face the curse of the dropped crotch this year – and the poor men who’re expected to wear these pants are even worse off than we are, if you can believe it.We’ll leave you to make up your own jokes about why this [...]

• Harem Hell: Vivienne Westwood’s ’sweater pants’

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  You COULD pay £265 for these Vivienne Westwood trousers. You could do that.OR, you could simply take that ugly old over-sized sweater you got for Christmas that time, and wear it upside, on your legs.  Same difference, really. Either way, you’re looking at some serious time in the Fashion Police jail…

• [Guest Post] Crime Of Fashion: Miss Selfridge Ostrich Feather Jacket

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Fi writes…When I saw this in a magazine it was in blue and my first thought was ‘OMG, who killed Gonzo from the Muppets?!’  The culprits turned out to be Miss Selfridge and they have cunningly tried to disguise their crime by dying the jacket black which is the only colour currently available on their [...]

• Frankenshoes: Irregular Choice ‘Gaga’ boots

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  For once, we think we may have identified a fashion crime that Lady Gaga WOULDN’T wear. These Irregular Choice boots are just way too clumpy for our favourite repeat offender, which is ironic, given that they appear to have been named after her.Are they too clumpy for YOU, though? They come in two different colors, ...

• Hips Don’t Lie: Zucca wool leggings

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  What we particularly love – and by “love”, we mean “hate” – about these Zucca leggings isn’t their resemblance to a pair of old fashioned jodhpurs. No, it’s the way the printed waistband and droopy fabric combine to create the illusion of a pair of trousers in the process of falling down to reveal the ...

• [Guest Post] Crime of Fashion: M&S Velour Wideleg Trousers

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Fi writes…Just when you thought it was safe to go back into Marks and Spencer: this happens.  If these were listed as lounge pants or leisurewear, I’m not saying it would make their existence right, but possibly it would make them more acceptable.  But M&S?  Dear old M&S, stalwart of the British nation ...

• Elephant jumpsuit: does what it says on the tin

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Humour us here, readers. Imagine a tail on the back of this jumpsuit. Now imagine a long trunk growing out of the model’s nose, and a large pair of flapping ears.Uncanny, isn’t it? And hey: it may be one of the least flattering items of clothing we’ve ever seen (and we’ve seen a LOT of [...]

  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  Fi writes…Have you ever wondered what the love-child of a moonboot and a Fit Flop would look like?  No, of course you haven’t, why would you?  But clearly someone has, and then they went a step further and put it into production.  Now, I am all for the benefits of Fit Flops and the new [...]

• Ugg: not just for furry boots, for handbags too!

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  It’s the season of the Ugg, folks. Now, the boots we can just about understand. No, they’re not pretty, but there’s no denying that they are cosy, and sometimes when you live in a cold climate that’s all you really care about.We have no idea why you’d need a sheepskin bag, though. Not unless you [...]

• Chocolate Teapot Award: Dolce & Gabbana’s tulle skirt

  
  The Fashion Police: Ugly shoes, pants, bags and prom dresses — Authority: 137
  OK, we’ve given this item much more thought than it actually deserves, and we can’t think of a single scenario in which we’d willingly pay £160 for something to completely and utterly useless. Can you? If you can, hand over your hard-earned cash to Yoox.com.
