Oompa Loompa, loompadee doo-
I’ve got an ugly collection for you!
What do you get when your fabric is flat?
Droopy, unhemmed with sleeves like a bat?
After intensive inpatient treatment, Violet was able to lead an almost normal life-
This just-
I am out of words.
Haven’t we- and the models- been thru enough?
Seriously- I need someone to tell me….WHY?

Oh my! First I see upholstery fabric, then I see tatters and fraying, and yes clothes that were made for a larger sized girl – she should go back to her seamstress for a re-fit. Poor girl is demented though so chances are slim that she’ll do that. Hilarious photos – I hope you are having Happy Holidays and have a Happy Prosperous New Year! 🎉💃🎊

This actually expresses the Post-Christmas state quite well: Tattered and feeling fat so wearing those over-sized clothes, perhaps a bit of trying on things Aunt Edna made that always fit like they were made for someone else (perhaps they were?) and poor old dear can’t see too well anymore… she probably didn’t realize she’d forgotten to hem that bottom, and sleeve, and shoulder, and…

I feel like we’re all better for seeing this collection, though. I, for one, obviously have some notes to take on posing. Almost-upright-Violet is something I never would have come up with on my own.

The poses make a nice change from the norm. The collection I am very happy about, because what would you have done without it? It’s a winner. Unlike the formal muumuu.

Good lord. I’m not surprised you’re out of words, there are NONE.

First I thought…these are great clothes to wear if you want to stop shaving your underarms…but then seeing the sleeveless offerings, I realized that your eye is drawn to the fraying hems instead. Post Christmas feelings for sure…plenty of room for all that extra fluff acquired from second helpings of stuffing and gravy.

The 5th picture looks like an “after” wearing her “before” dress with arms spread showing just how fat she used to be.

Most of these are one step away from being beautiful! (Okay, maybe two or three steps.) Lovely textiles and details ruined with ugly fit and finish. Who is Mother of Pearl and what is wrong with them? 😀

I think this is really an illustration of 2016. It is raw, poorly organized, unfit and dysfunctional. Perfect!

My inner bourgeoise sensibilities are immediately insulted by this type of collection: asking hundreds (or thousands) of dollars for a garment, and they can’t be bothered to finish making it?!? Pfft.

I’m pretty sure I saw that pink Muumuu at the thrift store yesterday along with that last pair of white heel strap sandals. Hideous designer duds at thrift store prices, in the thrift store!

Can we PLEASE somehow convince these investors to shove their dollars into a pool for real sewists to use instead of funding junk like this??? No telling what awesome pieces could come out of a collaboration like THAT. Surely better than anything shown in this ‘designer’ collection… 😉

That oversize brown sweater and pleated leg pants outfit does sort of make her look like a giant chocolate….

Terrifying. Some members of the Addams Family have escaped from the Lunatic Asylum and are now on the loose…..Watch out for Cousin Droopy and Cousin Hunchback.

No. I can’t think of anything nice to say either. (And my mum always told me that if I couldn’t think of anything nice don’t say anything. Doesn’t always work…)
