Hannah’s Got A Brand New Rag! Get A Rope!

Cory Kennedy Isn’t The Only One Sleeping Her Way To The Top

Activists Bash Madonna’s Shoe Choice

This is a stickup! Nobody wear gun heeled shoes and nobody gets publicly bashed! It seems to me that anti-violence groups are really cracking down on celebrities who flaunt even the tiniest amount of violent connotation. With the recent FCC crackdown on M.I.A’s song “Paper Planes,” disallowing the gun bangs and clicks to be aired on the radio and now a British anti-violence group marking Madonna’s footwear as “uncaring,” I don’t know where the line begins or ends! 

Madonna wore these killer (literally?) gun heels to the screening of her film Filth and Wisdom Monday night. These platforms were the spotlight for Karl Lagerfeld’s Chanel 2009 Resort collection. But don’t jump the gun now, Lyn Costello, from Mothers Against Murder And Aggression said:

“I am horrified that Madonna can see these shoes as fashion. Celebrities have a massive part to play and an icon like Madonna should have more sense.”

I really think these heels are more of a fashion statement and less of a violence marketing campaign. And seriously, when was the last time you heard an 8-year-old say that Madonna was their idol? Now, if Hannah Montana was rocking the gun heels, then we would have some problems…

Thanks NY Mag!

The Bashed: Last Night’s Project Runway

Is it just me, or are the producers of Project Runway Season 5 really scrambling for for creative challenges these days?  Wednesday nights used to mean an hour of neck to neck fashion design, but now, having sat through challenges for drag queens and designs made of car parts, I am reluctant to even turn on the television. Really people, this isn’t fashion design. This is a contest to see who smoked so much weed in high school that they have the ability to make garments out of used tires and table cloths. 

And last nights episode just put the cherry on top of an awful season. Not only did designers have to create outfits inspired by different music genres, they had to design it for a fellow competitor! You call that a challenge? They didn’t even have to take the other designers style or preferences into consideration! Basically, the challenge was to create a music inspired Halloween costume for someone who isn’t a 00. Let’s take a look how the garments turned out:

Korto’s punk rock design for Suede had him looking like he got stuck in the washing machine. Bleached jeans. Chains. Sideways studded belt. Torn strips on a shirt. This is what you need to win? Suede looks like a tool…and a woman.

Kenley’s hip-hop design for Leanne looked like clothes for one of those borderline slutty, pathetic Bratz dolls. Those have got to be the most unflattering pants I’ve ever seen…and what’s with the 80’s print shirt? Personally, I think little Miss Bitch and Moan should have gone home last night. 

Uhh, so did Suede decide to skip the rock and roll designing and send Jerell straight onto the runway? This looks like something he would wear on a daily basis (minus the ridiculous head pieces or military hats). And those pants…a bit too tight. Those of us who watched last night got a zoom-in on Jerell’s family jewels. 

My props to Leanna who had to design around Korto’s trunk junk, but if it weren’t for plaid, I wouldn’t have known this was a country inspired design. Anyone else notice the pucker of fabric in Korto’s crotch?

Jerell’s pop design for Kenley wasn’t trashy, but it sure as hell wasn’t flattering. Kenley looked like a slightly sexed up version of Hannah Montana with silver cups over her AA sized boobs. Really, I could find this exact outfit at Party City in the clearance section. 

Anyone else miss Christian Siriano or Jeffrey Sebelia just as much as I do? At least they were talented. So long Suede. Your awful blue mohawk and irregular third-person commentary were fun while they lasted. Here’s to you Corey…

This is what love looks like.

Thanks for the photos BRAVO TV!

Style Icons: Georgia May Jagger

At the tender age of 16, Georgia May Jagger has already found herself sitting front row at some of the biggest shows during London Fashion Week. I will tip my hat to this young lady, she knows how to dress. With a trendy father like Mick however, I guess it’s pretty easy. Georgia has already signed a major deal with the top modeling agency in London, and will only further develop into the style icon I foresee her becoming. So for all you little teens out their, burn your Hannah Montana posters, Wal Mart collection, and albums and jump on this bad girl bandwagon!
