My Clothes are For Everyone - except YOU.
From a mouse on Wank Report.

High-end fashion blogger, Susie Bubble, tries on an unfortunate creation by Pamela Hogg and posts the photographic results to her blog.



The designer's PR is not amused and demands the pictures be taken down for reasons that change with each discussion.

Defense of the designer ensues. Nasty defense!

http://pipeline.refinery29.com/daily_links/gaga_at_opening_ceremony_paul.php

"Susie Bobble isn't ugly but she's not pretty either. She's an average looking girl who loves above average looking clothes and therein lies the problem.

Message to Ms. Bobble: Make your own clothes from patterns and leave Pam and other talented designer pieces for the more suitable, pretty and slighter girls or women."

Susie pulls down the photos but is hurt and it's not from pulling off the tightest Spandex this side of the Power Rangers.

The imbroglio becomes the talk of the town.

Meow with a side of wank.

ETA: Deena of "Fat Girls Like Nice Clothes Too" has her own hilarious response.

Aww. She looks adorable in that catsuit! As good as anyone could look in that fashion atrocity.

I'd never heard of Susie before - looks like I have some archives to browse.

So...she's showing what the catsuit looks like on a relatively normal shaped person (actually quite cute), and this is "bad publicity"?

What's good publicity in this context?

V Describe your ideal customer.
PH My ideal customer knows who she is. I design for myself but there are all kinds of women out there who say I design just for them. They feel they can take on the world in my clothes so that’s cool by me.
...
V What's one Pam Hogg piece that everyone should own?
PH I'm well-known for my cat- and kitten-suits, and since they are all-in-ones, you don't have to worry about what to wear with them apart from the shoes. I also have an "I-con" collection of T-shirts with me in curlers smoking a cigarette, or me in the kitchen half-naked—that's a favorite!
 There's a NSFW pic on the page.

I'm pretty sure Susie felt like she could take on the world in those clothes. She did compare herself to a Power Ranger several times, after all.

That lady is beautiful and happy and she managed to make that horrible thing look good. I would love to raise funds to buy myself one of those getups and wear it around Hollywood for a whole week.

At 210 lbs and 5 foot 1, I could put the 'ass' back in 'brand assassination.'

Yeah, I would say "unfortunate" is the most charitable word you could have chosen for that monstrosity. Awesome cosplay prop, though. Or Halloween costume.

Then again, my generation is responsible for parachute pants, so my opinion on such matters is highly suspect. Also, I am 6'2" and have actual woman-type curves, so "high fashion" isn't for me anyway. ;^P
