Flippant

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!

"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.

	AHAH! I knew I had seen that bizarre catsuit before! And yes, models look silly in it too. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	What are we supposed to do? Stick her in the oven for two hours at gas mark five? (Reply to this)(Parent)

	The high heeled sandals just make it worse... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Is it just me, or did Susie Bubble look better? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She absolutely looked better. I can't decide if it's because the pink version just works better than the silver, or if it's because Susie looks like she's having fun in it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I think it's the total lack of humour in what is basically a very funny outfit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Especially to wear to a Star Trek premier. I'll bet you that her stylist put her in it, not anticipating a complete lack of fun in her client. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Agreed. An outfit like that screams for cheesy sentai poses, and Susie gleefully obliged. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	She did look better, haha. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Not just you. It honestly looks a little too big on the model... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Bubble did it far better. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I don't see how it's at all possible to get any "good" publicity out of that outfit. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Go Fug Yourself is one of my very favorite websites. If you don't already read it, I suggest browsing their massive archives. Some of the stuff under tags like "WTF" and "Just...wow" are just wondrous in their horribleness. (Reply to this)(Parent)
