I've always been a fan of Comme des Garcons. They've created innovative and fashion forward garments through the years. But sometimes harnessing all that creative juices can be a good thing or else... disaster! And that is just what this men's jacket with applique is. The design is so wrong it's criminal. It looks like a home economics project. And the price??? absolutely ridiculous. I rest my case.

Surface to Air Leopard Print Wedge Sandal $392.00. Browns Fashion
So now we know what an offspring o a leopard and a woman's shoe look like... not cute! I like the design of the shoe, but what's up with the overdone leopard print. To spend close to $400 on a pair of shoes that you can only wear with certain looks, not so 'smart'. I think.
I came across these UES 'Nise' High Top Trainer a couple of months ago. I must be in a forgiving mood that day and they didn't end up on my hit list. So, I saw them again last night and decided that they are just to much. Don't get me wrong, I love bling, but this shoes are a big flop. It doesn't matter if the chains are made with 18K Gold. Goes to show excess can result in bad taste.
![]() | I rather get wet than to be seen wearing this Christopher Raeburn Waterproof Parka. It looks heavy and to be quite honest very unfashionable. That's not all folks, this parka though constructed with re-appropriated military parachute fabric costs close to a thousand dollars! Which in my opinion is simply ridiculous. Do some people really sacrifice practicality and their intelligence for fashion? And in the process, lost their grasp and understanding what is actually beautiful? Perhaps, whomever will or have bought this parka can enlighten me. Christoper Raeburn Waterproof Parka $995.00 |
Don't get me wrong, I love Jeffrey Campbell shoes. You can always find the latest footwear trends in his collection. But this Woodsuede Flat Boots are just a bit to much for me. The strap detail along with the color of the leather looks over-designed and to someone who is not that familiar with designs like this would think that you just added the straps on your boots. Nothing wrong with a d.i.y. shoe project but would you pay $220.00 for something that looks like that?
Though checked shirts are quite the trend for men this fall, this Adam Kimmel shirt is a perfect example of designers not getting it. The right pocket is to low and the oversize pocket... necessary. I know that there are only so many designs and styles you can do to men's shirts. But making an ugly, dated one is shouldn't be an option. And to add insult to injury, the price is well above $500!! Come on now.

Fendi Silver Fox Coat Cape $3,278.00 Browns Fashion
O.k I'm not going to argue that this Fendi Silver Fox Coat Cape is not fabulous. In fact, it's chic and (very) luxurious... $3,278.00 to be exact. As a supporter of P.E.T.A, I'm a tad annoyed with this piece. With the advancement in manufacturing technology, how come some fashion houses still opt for animal fur to use in their line? So, if you had the money would you buy this coat cape? I won't.
This MJOLK bomber jacket totally bombed big time! Not so much the plaid fabric, the jacket has no shape at all, two-button detail not working for me and the elastic banding on the sleeve? Yuck! I'm not paying $250 for this for sure. Now I know what the gold ribbon is for... fugliest jacket of the month.
London Fashion Week is in full-swing and it is expected that we would see some the
best Spring 2010 collections. Well, not from House of Holland that is. Pardon my french but WTF! How many breasts do you need to show on the runway just to get some buzz. I mean, come on now.
So, the first half of the show were a series of fugly denim and lace garments. The second half right after the inappropriate wedding gown, a collection of shirts with the words: borrowed, blue, old and new. I guess this was supposed to echo the old Victorian bridal saying, something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue'... wow, so original! I'm being sarcastic.
This is London Fashion Week for Buddha's sake! This is when and where legendary collections are born. And the best thing that House of Holland can come up with is tackiness?! I am livid. Seeing this collection parade on one of fashion's biggest stage when there are so many striving fashion designers out there with the talent and creativity that can rival top designers but are not given the opportunity to show there craft due to lack of funding just angers me. The collection is uninspired and wouldn't have been missed if House of Holland decided not to show for London Fashion Week. Redemption is due on their next collection(s).
