This isn’t a dress, to me, so much as an infomercial.
It’s part Snuggie, part sweatshirt, part poncho: the Snugshirtcho. Call now and get free instructions for how to turn it into a tent that houses three, and they’ll throw in a ripcord so you can deploy it as a reserve chute — you know, on those days when you’re up in a tiny plane hanging out watching movies and eating popcorn, before you realize you’re due at a party in half an hour. If I had a nickel…

She’s in costume, dressed as a green screen! My guess is, she decided to wear a tent to start rumors that she’s preggo, and thus keep herself in the news. Yeah, ’cause we’d care.
Bad color, bad cut and don’t get me STARTED on the shoes.
I saw this look (photos of Leann with her douchey husband) on Tom & Lorenzo first. I’m happy it’s here now, for us to Fug.
That said, all I can think when I look at this REI reject of a dress-tent is, “Thank God it’s not bikini season anymore.”
She’ll show skin anyway. Did you see the Thanksgiving pic of her, Eddie and her “bonus boys”? Her sweater was cut so wide open she was half out of it.
I think I just gave ardent thanks for NOT having seen that …
Just googled that pic and she looked fine! I didn’t think the sweater was cut too low – maybe I’m looking at another pic.
Can’t say the same for the outfit here though. And her makeup artist really shouldn’t tightline her eyes.
The local TV weather forecasters could broadcast the weather map on her. But I’m also confused and puzzled by the things on her feet. It’s like she just escaped naked from some dungeon with the chains still dangling from her ankles, and all she could find to cover her loins was a green blanket.
I think she bludgeoned her captors with that bag.
When I saw this the other day I was HOPING you’d do a post about it.
I was thinking this is the sort of thing that you could be wearing tromping around your house waiting for the babysitter and thinking you look good. The dress is swinging, your round black earrings are popping, and your shoes are pumped up. The reality is that it’s horrible and sad, she is way too thin, and I got a little queasy looking at this whole mess.
I’m trying HARD to be unbiased here. I don’t actually hate the dress. It’s crack, but if SWINTON or Saldaña were wearing it, I’d be head over heels with how they can make something utterly ridiculous work FOR them. LeAnn here totally lacks the overall good press to pull off something this risky, even if she really wishes it otherwise. Those shoes are an atrocity. And once I get past the giant green Linus blankie, ALL I can see are the horrible, horrible shoes.
Yeah, it probably sounds nuts, but I actually like the dress. I even think Leann looks better in it than I would have expected her to.
My thoughts exactly. If Swinton was wearing this, it would be great. LeeAnn just doesn’t really have that little thing that has to go with a good dress. What was it? Ah! Elegance. And I think it would look better on a taller person.
EAT SOMETHING.
I generally avoid talking about a person’s dimensions, but dear lord the size of her forearms compared to her hands is frightening.
Agreed. And what I can’t help but think is that she’s so into being so small that it’s actually why she’s chosen the dress and shoes and bag…she’s positively swimming amongst all these things.
Yes, please.
I am trying so hard not to bodysnark. Really.
But we’re at the place now where I’m scared for her. I hate this place. I hope she doesn’t keep us here for long.
Concur. I don’t know her, don’t care for her, really, and I am *concerned.*
I thought she was just late for the Halloween party. No one told her Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was so 1995.
Her hands are out of proportion to the rest of her teeny little body. They look like gigantic circus hands and are freaking me out. I can’t focus on anything else.
This might look fashion-y on someone who didn’t look like they would be more at home in a Walmart smock.
Even the dapper man in the tux in the background is like “oh honey, no,”
I can identify with that man and his expresion of disapproval!
LOL, I missed the tuxedoed man at first! Seriously though, Leann’s body is frightening – I am worried for her and I’m not even a fan.
Her toothpick legs don’t even look like they have the strength to lift those clodhoppers on her feet. The green sheet, the nude lippy, the man hands grasping the huge-ass purse … it’s just sad, you guys.
She should have gone for the Maxi-Snugshirtcho, because her legs and arms are scaring me.
Go eat a sandwich please. Your legs are as thin as the branches of Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree.
Head = No!
Body = Hell no!
Feet = WTF?, no!
Now, I’m going to have ♫”Its A Fug World After All”♫ stuck in my head all day!
did they make her throw that coverup on because she was parading her stick figure around in another nasty bikini? She is skanktastic, and her “bonus boys” deserve a whole lot better.
I’M GUMBY, DAMMIT !
For The Win!
i’m honored, coming from you, Vandalfan !
I would totally wear a Snugshirtcho around the house, but probably with sweatpants because it’s super cold here in Mpls now. It honestly looks perfect for when you sit on the couch with a bowl of ice cream and some Modern Family or Castle. And a glass of wine, because there should always be wine.
For a party/red-carpet event, not so much. And the shoes!! My slippers would look better. Thomas Jane’s chicken foot shooes would look better! Gak.
G is for Green; G is for GROSS! This rates tops in the fug territory. I won’t even mention she has a dog-face.
“I won’t even mention she has a dog-face.”
Ha. Now all I see is the dog from Neverending Story.

“Falcor” it is! Good one Bevvie.
I find it a bit strange that someone who’s spent the last few months being photographed in a couple of square inches of cloth would want to be seen out and about in a shapeless green snuggie that looks like it’s made out of felt.
Also, I just want to say that shoes that come up that high at the front are just not flattering. People of the world please stop it! As illustrated here, even if you weigh 25 kilos they cut your legs off and looks stupid.
It reminds me of a high-fashion, not-made-of-paper, medical exam gown.
With sleeves.
Is that a deflated green M&M costume?
Well, that’s one way to ensure the press won’t be commenting on your ribcage again.
At first glance I thought this dress was awful. Then I read the description. Now I want a Snugshirtcho so much. No, I want several Snugshirtchos. Some in a nice French Terry for summer and some in sweatshirt material for winter. And I’d like them in several different colors. But not in this green, please.
she doesn’t have the presence to pull this thing off. also, this green color is heinous.
She is trying so hard yet she is never going to be as pretty or interesting. The legs are scary, the ugly dress is scary, the color is scary and her desperate grin is scary. Oh, go home and look at the husband ,who is probably looking for the next rich fool he can commit adultery with…..
oh poor girl, we are all so mean to her…
Good lord, how loose that is somehow only emphasizes how insanely bony she is. I never like to make “skinny-shaming” comments, but she truly looks unhealthy.
Can we just call attention to the fact that the back may possibly be an attached cape?
Snuggie? (call now and we’ll send you two)
“You nauseate me, Mrs. Grinch”
That’s the only thing I could think of! ha.
Mmmm… she graduated from university in Irish studies?
An example of what can happen when your stylist has no idea who you are. Avant garde fashion is a difficult sell on a country and western singer.
This! I can think of people who could pull this off (maybe old-timey Nicole Kidman, with the red hair and the face that moved), but it’s just not gonna work on a big-haired Nashville blonde.
HOLY SHIT. EAT SOMETHING.
Not enough of us are recognizing and eating disorder when we see one. Dude.
Right on Rachel! Karen Carpenter story, Part II.
Green screen.
I actually like the dress, just not on her. It looks lovely here : http://ninistyle.net/nini-collection/nini-green-circle-dress/
