The Blistering Stupidity in Fashion

 

Another nonsense look nobody will wear.

It must be a real treat to make things which are absolute garbage. These photos, sourced from a recent Elle post located here, contained some of the most awful looks I have seen in a very long time.

I would classify them as mental illness. It's too bad God never released the 10 fashion commandments. Because we kind of need this now, given the amount of insanity seen on the runway.

The photos show a real strange fashion trend: Everyone is wearing a scarf. The bags are hairy. Those boots HAVE to go up to the knees. No matter what. 

But the real question is: Where does genius end and madness begin? Or does it blend the two, creating unique trash fashion looks like the very top photo of this article. We've all seen elaborate model sets before. The incredible waste of money on things that get only used once - for a fashion show. Don't think for a moment these items are held anywhere. And if they are, likely they'll be destroyed.

We live in an age of fashion garbage. Not even shunting in perfume at fashion shows are going to save some of those top brands this year. 

I used to think high fashion contained perfect stitching, fit, and finish using quality materials. Mostly. But now, having witnessed the reports on social media of crap quality fashion, from astonishing brands, I really wonder what qualifies them to be a luxury brand when in reality, they are not. 

Can I just say? No one wants to see your underwear. No one. The oversized look, incredibly crap-looking shoes, and garish colors are going to win no awards. And neither is wearing wires under your clothes. Usually attached directly to their genitals. But seriously, is this still a thing? I never succumbed to this nonsense. Each to their own, I say.

Black or white, it doesn't matter. I'm seriously tired of looking at models who refuse to smile. If it's that horrible maybe they should be given a goddamn tip jar as they walk down the runway. If I ran my own model house I'd fire any model who refused to smile. 

And I'm not sorry, but this jeans-style combo outfit has to die a final death - its just not fashionable. In the 1970's, 80's, 90's, 2000's, and even now. Just stop.

So you wanna look like a million dollars on the cheap? That's not going to happen. Let me save you the embarrassment: Instead of people asking 'Is THAT Versace?" and you say "Ummm, no it's bargain blend 7". Stay back, it's going to be a cold conversation going forward.

And this strange look - usually where women have their last set of ribs surgically removed - is quite awful. Now I'm not saying the model above had it done, but you can tell when a woman has it done, and when you see her body, it's unnatural. There is a sudden dive to the center. Gone is the graceful curve given by that single pair of ribs. Ghastly, indeed.

Bringing back a sore point for me: These ripped jeans need to burn in hell - and stay there. You'll be the laughing stock to strangers. The ripped jeans look was never in fashion, never cool, and never a sign of wealth.

These fucking boot styles need to die. I saved the best for last. Unless you're an absolutely smoking hot goth model, just don't. It's confusing, inappropriate given the weather (as seen above), and nobody is going to take you seriously. Because only 5 year old's dress like that. You can thank me later when you throw them to the charity bin.

I've got a few more ideas to chat about in the next few weeks.

Stay tuned.
