This is for those of you who thought I had lost my mind in giving Stella McCartney props the other day:
I like this pattern, but as deployed it looks like she got mauled by wallpaper last seen in an episode of The Love Boat. MY GOD, the things that wallpaper has seen.

When interviewed, Marc Jacobs gave some pat answer about wearing this because he wanted to pay homage to the unexpected, or something.
Can I call bullshit on that? Because a) Marc Jacobs in kooky nightshirt-looking dresses is not that unexpected anymore, even if they’re see-through; so b) I think he just wanted to show off his pecs. We get it, Marc. (AGAIN.) We still see you. In your underwear. Looking like Dermot Mulroney. I’m bored. It’s ridic. It’s The Chronicles of Ridic. You’re actually making me miss Lady Gaga, WHICH HAS NEVER HAPPENED.

Methinks somebody is feeling a wee attention-starved.
But what I can’t figure out is why. Every fashion critic trips over him or herself to lavish his New York show with praise, even if it’s on the brink of insanity. He modeled nude for his own fragrance ad, with a giant liquor bottle over his swizzle stick. He has a SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS tattoo. WE’RE LOOKING. WE PROMISE. WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE. You don’t need to tog up like the Village People’s personal Pepto supplier, and certainly not in that abismol –(OH YES I DID) — Polo-style sack (with Wicked Witch of the West shoes of his own design). Is it 1982? Is “Thriller” about to come out? Is some girl named Madonna sewing a wedding dress and crimping her hair? IS ABBA ABOUT TO BREAK UP?!? If you can stop stomach ailments, Marc, then surely you can stop that.

Hey, guys, I’d stick around and write more, but:
I’ve got to find Jimmy Choo-ster Tamara Mellon here before she leaves town. I’ve got a love spell I need her to cast!
@maracaseyshoots @TriciaOKelley OMG so cute! Hope he turns up soon!

Why is Stella McCartney the WORST?
The sad thing is, this isn’t as bad as some of her recent (and former) offenses, but still. Look at it. And further: If you are the DESIGNER and you can’t even make your clothes fit nor flatter YOUR OWN SELF, why does anyone else trust you? What grisly naked pictures of which celebrities are tucked away in her office safe?
