The Frightful Fashions Roundup - 27th Jan

This weeks Frightful Fashions Roundup is a little late. You can blame Australia Day celebrations, where someone (ehem, me) had a few too many and was too sleepy (read: hung-over) to do much the next day. Ah well, there is no better way to have a really Aussie celebration that BBQ meat and lots of beer :p

Below you'll see the worst celebrity fashion choices I stumbled across during last week. As always, Copycat Queen V is a place of inspiration and pretty things, but sometimes it's good to get examples of what not to wear. So, all snarky comments are done purely in the spirit of education, as nothing will drive home the point to always look stylish better than a good snark at some frightful fashion :p




Vote for your least favourite look at the bottom!


January Jones

This one is hard to include, simply because January looks so happy. It's hard to criticize when someone is smiling so infectiously, however this outfit overpowers the effect of contagious happiness. It looks like it's something she dug up out of an 80's closet. The effect of the outdated and unflattering jeans is exasperated by the clash of dark/light colours that just doesn't work here. The jeans cut off at a weird length that just looks odd with her boots. Look past the happy face, and you'll see the outfit is a fail.


Lady Gaga

Everyone in the world has come to just accept that Lady Gaga dresses very outside the box. This look is even tame compared to some of her other outfits. However, the above outfit bears mentioning because of the event it was worn to, simply because it screams irony.

Quite often bachelorette parties will involve strippers. The one that Lady Gaga attended even had sort of a stripper theme for the weekend, complete with pole-dancing class. But when it's party time, you want the paid people to look like strippers, not your guests. With this outfit I'm surprised people didn't think that a stripper got lost on the way to the bucks party. Also, totally, totally wrong bag choice, even if you are intending to look like a high class "dancer".


Halle Berry

Oh Halle. Surely the salary from the x-men movies alone should be enough to keep you in designer threads for years to come. So, why oh why are you dressing like a homeless person? I understand the need to be comfy while shopping, but seriously, would it have killed you to spruce up a little? You're a smoking hot movie star! Dressing like this is doing yourself a disservice.


Hilary Duff

Is it just me or does it look a little like Hilary has chucked on parts of 3 different outfits? Outfit 1 features a big cozy chunky knit sweater. Outfit 2 sports some light breezy shorts. Outfit 3 is finished with dark unsexy boots that could possibly be worn with many things, other than what she's actually wearing. A fashionable outfit is cohesive, and looks at least somewhat intentional. This is mish-mash of clashing items that makes me think someone was in big hurry when she got dressed.


Kristin Stewart

Call me a big nerd, but in my mind Kristen Stewart will forever be Bella Swan. I doubt I'm the only one with this mindset. I know Kristen has repeatedly announced that she's a tomboy and not one for fashion, and more power to her for owning it. However, I think it bears saying that, Kristen, the world knows you are female. I, and many others, saw proof during the Twilight Saga. So stop with the boy disguises already. You're a girl, you can't fool us, so give it up.


Kylie Jenner

A few weeks ago Kylie's sister Kendall wore a similar look and rocked it, despite being so unusually dressed down. This version is nowhere near as cool. Both version have a check shirt, sweatpants and what looks like possibly the same boots. In this outfit however, the shirt is too long and loose and the sweatpants are a weird and unflattering fit with an unfortunate banded cuff at the bottom. Very different effect. This just looks unkempt and sloppy.
