Fabu Jessica...Fabu

While I've always thought she was a pretty girl, I must say, Jessica's stepped her game up in a major way with this gorgeous Oscar look. She seems to be making it to the top of every best dressed list with this lovely get-up. The tan was perfect, the dress was on point, the hair was classy and the jewelry was beautifully understated.

A+!

Is it just me...

...or does she look homeless? I thought women were supposed to glow while pregnant? I mean hell, all the women I've known with kids did at some point in time. There are plenty of great maternity outfits, so what the hell is she wearing? She looks like a hobo. But then again, it's not like she's had the best fashion sense pre-preggers either...

I guess we all have an off day...


Now normally, I LOVE Ms. Union's fashion choices. She's got a great body & she generally wears her clothing, her clothing doesn't wear her. This little diddy however, leaves me wondering, what was was thinking? I can see the direction she was trying to go in but frankly, nothing fits with this outfit. The belt's ill-fitting, the pants are sagging, the boots look out of place & even the wife-beater's off. Seriously, is it another shade of black or is it brown? I know she can do better. Although she's a cute girl, she's looking rather dowdy here. Her hair's about the only thing redeeming her right now & even that's getting lost in the ab-drab of this outfit. Better luck next time Gabby, this one strike's out.

I vowed to be nicer this year but...


Then I saw this shit! Though I wish I'd photoshopped this one personally, I didn't. Props to whoever did though! All I want to know is... has Shar-shar ever heard of LOTION??? I mean damn! Her back & elbows look like she's been laying down in flour all day. Better yet, she looks like someone dragged her ass across sand! Can you say DRY AS HELL?? Not to mention, is that a birthmark or some odd fungus growing on her lower back? And is it me, or is her back shaped like a square? No definition, just a big ass square back that leads into a square, flat ass. It's like she's got an Extend-a-back. Just one long, continuous piece of skin that goes right down to the top of her thighs. What in the hell happened to her booty?? I'm really confused as to why she thought this look was remotely cute. Then she had the audacity to put on the K-mart red velvet hat. Why Shar? WHY?? This is proof positive that she doesn't have a stylist... or friends for that matter.

Word to the wise Shar... friends don't let friends walk around looking triflin'

Fabulous!


Not many people know her by name but if she keeps dressing like this, many more will. Kerry Washington's looking great in this little getup. From the bright, robust colors to the beautiful cut of the dress, right down to the hot gold heels...this look is right on the money!

Thank God for people with fashion sense...

Muy Bonita...


Eva's looking fabulous! We know she always makes great fashion choices (unlike many of her counterparts) & here's yet another.
This simple, hugging dress is perfect for her. Giving her enough sexy to do her thing while being soft & subtle just the same. The hair & accesories are fabu too. Do the damn thing mamacita!


 
by Ms. Hershey


Is it just me, or is this broad just ugly as hell??
I swear she looks like a bird and with the pale-as-candlewax skin and this less-than-stellar get up she's rockin' (what's with her wearing granny's old rat-fur shawl?) she looks more like a "Feed the Tacky" ad than a hotel heiress.

Are those scabs on her legs??


 
by Ms. Hershey


I've generally never had a problem with the fashion choices of Madame Jessica.

But when she decided to use last year's Xmas wrapping paper as the inspiration for this mess, I'm forced to ask... what is she thinking??

Funny thing is, Fashion Police didn't see the problem with it...

Ok so Beyonce's newest venture is actually called "House of Dereon"

HOUSTON - Tina Knowles takes great care to remove the lid of a giant box. She pulls out a thick purple book and cradles it in her hands. It bears a gold symbol that looks at first glance like a fancy backward letter C.

She invites a closer look.

"It's an accent, but it also looks like a mother and child. That's the House of Dereon," she says.

Mothers and daughters inspired the new clothing line Knowles has launched with her megastar offspring, Beyonce. Its name and logo - a much-embellished accent agu - are reminders of Knowles' mother, Agnes Dereon, who died in 1984.

Showing off pages of designs in the book, Knowles describes the line in three words: kick, couture and soul.

"Beyonce is the kick, I am the couture, and Agnes is the soul," she says. "We just didn't want to slap a name on clothes. We wanted something Beyonce would be happy to wear. This is a serious fashion line."

When it is fully up and running next year, the House of Dereon (pronounced duh-RAHN) will offer a mix of styles, from couture to urbanwear, where "salon and street meet," says Knowles.

The first looks debuted on stage, not on a runway. Elements of the 15 crystal- and leather-embellished costumes Beyonce and her Destiny's Child co-stars, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, have been wearing on their current Destiny Fulfilled tour will be incorporated into the line.

"We'll do things differently and tone it down so that it's wearable every day," Knowles says.

The new line also will incorporate a mix of fabrics, from chiffon to silk to wool gabardine. Some fabrics will be made exclusively for the House of Dereon.

Knowles has been the designer and stylist for Destiny's Child since its inception. She's developed a reputation for elaborate and often sexy costumes, evening gowns and street wear for the group that conjure up images of the Supremes and Motown.

While Knowles is involved with every aspect of the design, she has created a small powerhouse team that includes Heather Thomson Schindler, who helped P. Diddy launch his Sean Jean line and served as a design consultant on Jennifer Lopez's line, J.Lo.

"This is not just a clothing line," Thomson Schindler says.

"We are creating a brand. This is a labor of love that comes from three generations of women, and that takes time."

She says the line has a broad target market - ages 13 to 40 - with a look that blends Beyonce's style with the elegance and sophistication of couture.

First out will be a denim collection, debuting at Macy's and other Federated stores in December. It will include jeans in the $125 range.

Knowles wanted to create jeans that all women could wear well, regardless of the size of their derriere.

"I want the woman with the flattest butt and the woman with the largest one to look good in these jeans," she says.

Darts in the back and a split seam on the waistband help give them a better fit.

"It's fashion that's attainable," Thomson Schindler says.

"It's not something just for the elite and those sitting in the front row of a fashion show. That's what Tina wanted. This is her dream."

A couture collection will be offered at Barney's and Bergdorf Goodman next spring.

Knowles says 10 percent of the House of Dereon proceeds will go to charities such as the Bread of Life program for the homeless at St. John's United Methodist Church in Houston.

As a child growing up in Galveston, Knowles helped her mother sew clothes and became fascinated with fitted styles from the 1930s and '40s.

"I am a fanatic about fit. That's what separates couture clothing from everyday clothes. It's the best feeling in the world to put on a jacket and not have to get it altered. We're taking the attention to fit that you find in vintage clothes and putting our spin on it."

Eventually, she wants to expand the line to include perfume bottles, handbags and shoes.

Knowles' venture into the clothing business comes with unique challenges aside from tour performances and red-carpet appearances by Destiny's Child. There are production deadlines, regular trips to New York to meet with the design team and demands to release the line.

"I fight every day to make sure we maintain quality and that we don't rush to produce something just to make money," she says.

"All of my life I've been transferring people, always fixing them up - their makeup, their hair, their clothes. Now, this a dream come true, and we want to do it right."

The House of Dereon takes some of its cues from the stage costumes of Destiny's Child, but with less sparkle and toned-down sexiness. Hmmmmm it sounds good on paper I suppose, but you know, I myself and most of the females I know are a bit suspect of beyonce-created designs, and all agree that she looks fabu- when rocking chanel and gucci...so let's hope that deron doesnt end up looking like the houston mall fashion shows.

Beyonce is lookin Crazy in Love these days - not paying much attention to where to clip her wig.

B - We know that even good people can have bad hair days, but you would think that with the gazillion of dollars you have, and the incredible amount of money you must save by having your mama design your wardrobe, the very least you could do is buy some good hair pieces.

knowles.092105.jpg
But alas, life is good for the beautiful people, so I am sure it is only us females who are even noticing your big-wig-stake.

FashionPolice noticed it too. The editor must be female or gay.

Oh Miss Nicole - we almost miss you! One must pause just a moment to double take, and it's not because of your fabulous goddess-like shiny lined grecian gown or your super cute hair (which is gorgeous compared to the second time around pink and black swapmeet extensions of last year)...but is that REALLY your chest or your spinal cord pretending to be your chest...??

richie.nicole.092105.jpg

At a glance, I swear it looks as if Miss Richie's head is plopped on backwards and the gown in reverse or something bizarre to that nature. We fashionistas are starving to know...Is backbone spine the new cleavage?
