Not much going on tonight, so here’s a look at one of the stranger collections we’ve seen out of Paris fashion week: the Gareth Pugh line.

Thoughts?

  1. She looks like she’s wearing a frickin shoji screen.

    what the fuck is that??

    I have never seen something so fucking ugly in my life..

  3. Erin says:

    For some reason it annoys me that they are all wearing the same shoes.

  4. whatshername says:

    I don’t understand this “fashion.” No one will ever wear it, it is wasted material and wasted time. This isn’t fashion, it’s costume design, and sub par at that.

  5. alana says:

    gareth pugh is more about art and surrealism that readytowear and he always has been

  6. Zosha says:

    i ADORE gareth pugh. and i agree with alana. a lot of his stuff seems very stanley kubrick-esque. he’s certainly not about functionality, but it’s damn fun to look at.

  7. J says:

    I.. I don’t get it.

  8. f. says:

    It’s not costume design it is fashion&gareth pugh always experiments with concepts and shapes…not everything is for everyone as gareth pugh is quite contemporary. It’s not “ugly” it’s just different at least admire the skill it took to create a look like that and execute it fabulously…and appreciate the fact that it’s not your everyday 12 dollar shirt that became over priced because a designer added a ruffle

  9. Skye says:

    it is so incredibly impractical. Honestly, who would buy/wear this? No one. Thats who.

    … They’re modeling the new NFL referee unifoms after Ed Hochuli fucked up the call last week and fans started throwing chicken wings at his ass.

    “After further review…my mamma coulda thrown that ball farther….ummmm….ya’ll lose and you bastard fans can kiss my ass *ziiiiip*”

    Psssssss - What a total rip-off:


    I KNOW… that was really-really geeky. I just didn’t know what else to comment with AND I REALLY WANTED TO COMMENT ON THIS!

    I really want to meet the person who actually wears that stuff.

  14. slouchy says:

    - and the paper collar keeps the models from biting their sutures.

  15. Asta says:

    I like a lot of the ideas and techniques. The last dress would be super cute with a less flowing skirt. It’s interesting, but the first two are too over the top.

  16. Fleur says:

    Budget ideas for Derby Day frocks?

  17. ribbet says:

    lol slouchy!
    i have always wondered why elizabethan collars haven’t made a come back. they look so comfy.

    i actually like this collection. at least it is different and thought provoking, unlike ms. bilson’s collection of jeans and tee shirts or lauren conrad’s been there done that dresses.

    @tss - we are charger fans and i seriously thought my husband was going to hunt that man down and kill him after the denver game. at least he is answering all of his hate emails and apologizing. i wonder if he’ll lose his job shortly?

  18. Melady says:

    I was wondering where all my sticky-notes went! Pfffft!

  19. joan says:

    storm troopers!!!

  20. Lauren says:

    Queen of Hearts? Alice in Wonderland? Hmmm.. must be spam keywords, lol. The second to last dress just needs a TOUCH of red and we can SO TOTALLY remake Alice!

  21. JudyP says:

    This is what happens when Post-Its get in the wrong hands!

  22. S says:

    Bahahahahahhahahaha *pause* Ew

  23. me says:

    I was on the fence over commenting on this.. then I see this bitch whtie that she “ADORES” gareth pugh and she really wrote it in CAPS.. they all look like gay storm troopers from star wars. it’s idiots like this chick that “ADORES” this, that’s keeps these other idiots in business.

  24. Shezzy says:

    I… kinda love it all. Would totally wear some of them and the others are great concepts.

  25. beebeec says:

    Recycling the construction/destruction building materials left in the wake of Hurricane IKE? Nice touch using the mini-blinds, finishing & acoustic insulation products.

  26. lolly says:

    this would lose on project runway.

    fo sho.

  27. quirkygirlkitten says:

    i like the idea of this, but not sure about the execution. it is over the top but most fashion collections are not ready to wear in the sense of being right off the runway and into your closet, they are toned down for the buyers. intersting…i’d like to see more.

    Nice index card toe.
