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.

I know! I mean, what the hell, by no standard is she overweight and hell, these twigs they're talking about (because you have to be thinking of twigs to beat down at someone with her body) aren't healthy weight. I mean, you generally need to have six kilos to lose off of your frame without looking like a skeleton because a prolonged flu like illness can wipe you out otherwise, so I don't know that the hell these idiots are talking about because her being "slighter" would be the most idiotic recommendation ever.

Anyway, she actually made the catsuit look fun.

Oh, I should mention, the six kilos thing is just my own experience and not a medical opinion, it's what a friend lost in weight while she had the flu and even though she was curvy to begin with she looked like hell by the end of it. I've lost weight while sick too but I tend to only pay a vague attention to my weight - I tend to just rely on the mirror to let me know how I'm doing.
