Auf Wiedersehen, Fabulous Kirsten!





We're not entirely sure why, but Kirsten's auf'ing, it haunts us, poodles.


Something about missed opportunities and having to decide between fashion and personal values - it just spoke to us, darlings.

The fabulous Hermes scarf and 6-foot glamazon with drop-dead hair didn't hurt either. It's just always been, to us, one of the more memorable auf'ings in PR history.


Of course, the fact that this outfit was such a trainwreck also contributed to its memorableness.

God, that top. As great as that classic t-shirt imagery is, the shirt was just too small for her to work it into the outfit in any meaningful way. She should have just ditched it or made a purse or belt out of it. Speaking of belts, what's going on at the top of that skirt? looks pretty rough to us.


Ouch. Kirsten honey, what were you thinking? Ticky-tacky, sweetie. Ticky. Tacky.

What's with that line of trim running straight up the middle of the skirt? Is that like the landing strip or something? Does it light up at night?


What kills us is, Kirsten had some of the best materials to work with out of anyone there. We understand and sympathize as to why she didn't use the scarf (Nina, you were being a total bitch there), but she had that fantastic metallic leather jacket and those looooong jeans to work with. She couldn't make a cute top and skirt out of that?


Ah well. We were sorry to see you go, gorgeous.

But cheer up, Miss Thing! You're fabulous, thin and tall, darling! You can't have everything, now. Otherwise, we'd all hate you!

Big Basket of Not-So's

Not so good, not so bad.




Geez, it's really hard to throw the bitchery around when you know the designer. Emmett darling, we loveya, but we don't love this dress.


Actually, it's not the dress as much as it's that jacket. As it is, the dress has a lot of elements to be taken in and it's to his credit that he kept them all subtle by going monochromatic. But there's enough going on without the jacket. The outfit doesn't need it and the jacket is just too fussy and busy.


Without it, the dress is pretty, if a little unflattering. It's almost as if he melded two dresses. If it didn't have that flared skirt, it'd be a cute little slip dress; if he'd kept the flared skirt and went with a more fitted bodice, it'd be a cute little cocktail dress.


We think Kirsten's fabulous, but this? Is not.


It seems like such a strange entry for this challenge. So blah. There's a little interest generated by the jacket, but not much.


And what we're left with doesn't look particularly well made. That back looks like a kid's craft project. Nor is it a particular good or even interesting design. Seems very fashion school-y.


And the tailoring on the pants looks terrible. We're actually a little surprised the judges didn't call her out on this.


M-I-C...

Seeya real soon!

K-E-Y...

Why? Because this dress is irritating the shit out of us!

Lovely silhouette, deep rich color. Fine. Good job, Daniel. Got that out of the way.

Now.

WHAT THE HELL is going on with that bust? It's so weirdly tailored that it completely disguises her natural curves and those utterly bizarre mouse ears are totally distracting. Plus, the trim on the skirt and the unflattering angle of that belt are big WTFs.


And then the "Too much shit on this dress" sweepstakes continue as she turns around, revealing herself to be a giant handbag.

Daniel, there's too much shit on this dress.
