So awesome, like really kitschy uber future bondage fashions

Oscars in 2000 I believe......so much tulle.....much purple, such wow!

I love how ridiculous the world of fashion is

Lady Gaga

I really enjoyed circa 3 years ago Lady Gaga, don't get me wrong, the recent Versace campaign and the hilarious pics with Donatella are great. There were a couple of oh come on moments, but this was when she was top of her game in my mind

I mean LOOK at that piano, arguments of over the top exhibitionist aside, no one can argue that is one wicked prop, she's suspended on her chair swing!! 

In Viktor and Rolf, pulled off perfectly

Decapitation dress

The tea cup. A plain old cup wasn't this well known since Alice in Wonderland or Chip from Beauty and the Beast, cup meme

Daily Mail and Tumblr

I'm giving her the art tag, not many people have the ability to pull this off, love or hate her...

Jessa Johansson style

Jessa Johansson, the character on HBO's Girls, played by Jemima Kirke, what a wardrobe!

All the bloggy community are on about it. The oft-compared to Samantha Jones character has an enviable wardrobe. Pics are all from Season One episodes to my knowledge, looking forward to season 3.

Far left, them shoes be haunting my dreams until I track down a pair to love and hug and call my own, anyone have any idea who they might be by? I have googled them to death and am no closer

The ridiculous over the top feathered collar (Roy's age of innocence quip anyone, gold)

Vivienne Westwood armour ring above, thanks coolspotters!

The above outfit! floral print trousers, they're everywhere, and they walk a fine line between beautiful, as above, or awfully overdone.

And this bat wing dress/ kimono thing was incredible, I think the whole 'reading into a character's wardrobe' thing has been a bit overdone, but the free spirit element they're trying to grab is definitely there, love or hate her.

UPDATE: Jessa Season 3= mega fucked. Not even delightfully messy fucked, just awful human being.

Maleficent

Looking forward to Maleficent

Angelina Jolie makes a good villain

I'm sure Team Aniston agree

Strange world of perfume and fame.

Has anyone seen these hilarious Elizabeth Taylor moments?

This White Diamonds perfume commercial is vintage camp! Hilarious

and this gem of a video of her putting her eye make up on, I for one love the crazed look in the first few moments of the video, tinseltown has left us an abundance of bizarre internet-ted memorabilia. 

Crazy, excessive, over the top as it may have all been, you can't deny she was a beauty

I don't know why, but this one wherever i found it made me laugh, it might be my immature side shining through, but it sounded like a commercial for anti-flatulence pills. That is a wind song that stays in everyone's mind!

I trust you watched the video, no? yes! :P

The funny world of celebrities and their fragrances. Some it was inevitable for, enter good old liz, but it's become a strange right of passage for every star out there. Haven't celebrities stolen enough limelight? Are there people out there who truly believe by wearing a fragrance they're one step closer to their questionable idols?

I think this is a tangent I shall continue in future!

Stupid hats

Just like good bad taste, there are good stupid hats and bad stupid hats, here's a nifty little guide

I realise someone probably extorted a huge amount of money from this woman calling it 'fashion' and in exchange for an exorbitant price, your own personal marshmallow cloud to block the view of the very thing you're there to see.

makes sense

Result = Bad Stupid

Just because you wear it with diamonds and MIGHT be related to someone in a royal family somewhere (legitimately, no clue who this is) does not mean you continue to wear a kite after a child has got it stuck in your hair

Result= Bad Stupid

Princess Beatrice! Who can forget this one? It has its own MEMES you guys, that's how much it influenced the collective subconscious. Personally i think the female reproductive system comparison is pretty bang on, it might be a Philip Treacy and therefore 'art' or whatever you want to pass it off as, but come on? I'd rather wear a dildo on my head

Result= BAD BAD Stupid

Giant cocktail stupid hat, don't mind if i do! good for getting shitfaced, bad for diluting cocktails if it starts to rain

Result= GOOD Stupid!

Now this one above is a personal favourite. Proof that fashion is sometimes so freaking dumb, i don't think even Lady Gaga would be caught in this, well 2 years ago maybe.

 This is proof that Barbie has invented a gigantor ray and is keeping it to herself. It hit one of her napkins instead and could be sold for a probably quite neat profit looking at the ostentatious jewellery and the sugar daddy in a top hat in front

Is this in case a dinosaur needs a tampon? I hate when fashionistas are all 'oh you just don't 'get' it' what is there to get? That someone has more money than brains? That's very gettable as evidenced by many things in the fashion world that takes itself way too seriously. 

Result= BAD BAD BAD Stupid

Valley of the Dolls

Image heavy post alert! Valley of the Dolls is great for appreciation of the 'so bad it's good' vibe, the over the top ridiculous campy kitschy whole 2 hours is brilliant. Now there be no need for social commentary, as we have ridiculous celebrity meltdown headlines that are bigger than actual news stories, to distract us when we feel helpless and overcome with the state of our current world.....tsk tsk

Completely worth watching for the Neely O'Hara storyline alone! It's meant to be sad and rock-bottom-ish but it is kind of hysterical, why is it always famous people though? i can imagine a few old managers of mine doing this after a gruelling day 

Oh Sharon Tate, no one deserved to go the way you did, if you're into crazy cults and true crime stories read more here very very sad though, as she was heavily pregnant at the time of her murder

And the stunningly beautiful Barbra Parkins as Anne Welles, who can forget those Gillian Girl advertisement scenes, you can view them here

I love this picture of her, what a dress! Fashion today is a big let down most of the time....so 'safe' and 'chic' like a mass personality bypass

Here you can wear some 'dolls' (slang for pills) of your own

Here are some doll socks

What about this article, whole jewellery collection based on it! What an excessively over the top way to celebrate something as Tacky and awesome as Valley of the Dolls

What about a hilarious Jeremy Scott x Longchamp bag to celebrate? why the hell not, the film is ridiculous, might as well complement your movie inspired wardrobe with any hint of humour 

My my, aren't they all pretty? with their perfect Sixties hair and clothes, what a film, whole thing is on Youtube, go enjoy some over the top hilarity

We're the Dandy Highwaymen

"I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention!"

Best song opening line ever (feel free to submit rebuttals)

Oh Adam Ant, let me count the ways i love you

Pirate fashions!

Kabuki make up!

Pantaloons!

"So what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking?
It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making"

(lyrics from Stand and Deliver by Adam and the Ants)

Who can forget the brilliant moment in Absolutely Fabulous where Patsy gets Eddie to do the Prince Charming dance and with such wondrous lyrics and brilliantly over the top (i suppose it could be classed 'workwear' for the Ants AND the dread Pirate Roberts?) costuming, who couldn't love you?

Carrie Bradshaw favourite looks

Donna Karan ethereal gown worn to a wedding where Carrie chucked a spazz

Mille Feuille dress worn in Paris, pretending to be asleep to avoid chucking a spazz

Viktor and Rolf sequin top!

Love the jackets

Loved the top and belt, love the fact that she tripped and fell in Dior even more, great comedic moment right there. It's not that SATC doesn't have its ok points, i just find Carrie Bradshaw over rated as an iconic woman because she is quite possibly the most neurotic person on planet earth with the exception of one of my semi-relatives 

You'd be better off taking relationship advice from this guy:

The penguin OR the bus driver from Billy Madison
