Couture/Fall-Winter 09 - When designers run short on ideas.

Posted by v on July 1, 2008

After viewing the runways and catwalks for this seasons spectacular designs, we realized the designers are under so much pressure to show a collection that sometimes they just “hash”stuff together. A lot of incredibly stupid or vain designs or both stupid and vain then make their way to the catwalk.

The abundance of manbags, pom poms, ribbons etc on the mens shows were just an example. After all is said and done, the edited version is presented to the public. All in an effort to make the designers look good and the rest of us feel we so not worthy.

Here are some of fashions not so bright ideas. Please offer your opinion.

ANNE VALERIE HASH

The ultimate in accessories. Who needs earrings when you can have a helmet attached to your shoulder. Ms. Hash, no offence but you may want to drop the last name.

PAUL SMITH

Believe it or not, this stuff was on the runway. What wicked inspiration!

GEORGES HOBEIKA

Now, keep folding, till it resembles a skirt. Then bind her legs and make sure she cannot walk. This must look as uncomfortable as you can make it look. Brilliant!!!! Just Perfect!!

JOHN GALLIANO FOR DIOR

Now, how did we say you could disguise that belly.

STEPHANE HOLLAND

The baby doll grew up and went couture. No, its a skirt! on a dress. Now, if you think the top is not worthy of attracting attention, pin something resembling a black giant spider on it. No wonder, the poor model looks dazed.

GEORGIO ARMANI

Mr. Armani Sir, Mr Armani…… Nobody kind of wears their hair like this anymore, sir.

GALLIANO FOR DIOR

Isn’t this just precious. Pad your belly and double its size. Why the heck have you been starving yourself for all these years?  You could just have said “Darling, Its couture!”

Korean designer WOOYUNG MI 

The gladiators proved to be such a hit last year, lets see what else we can do to improve it. Lets put the feet in plastic shoes and it will be fun to see sweat trickle down.
