Torture Is The Only Thing Standing Between You And High Fashion
It’s New York Fashion Week, and Bossy’s friend Rachel Zoe is back, and this time she wants you to know how easy it is to achieve a flawless look that screams front row at fashion week:
The first thing you need is a Rachel Zoe jumpsuit:
And the next thing you need is an enormous pair of sunglasses:
And the next thing you need is a pair of sky-high wedges:
Put it all together and you have a front row fashion week ensemble!
In that first picture, those are HAMMER PANTS!
WTF is going on in this country? Be strong people, we cannot allow the re-emergence of Hammer Pants!
Was the jumpsuit in the second photo made for a 12-year-old or did they just run out of material when making it?
This is one of the butt-ugliest outfits I have ever seen!
Umm…did you see her preparing the salad for seder? She was cutting up veggies while wearing a voluminous black cape, giant rings, and a weird little black cap. She reminds me of the woman in C’ville, VA who claimed to be Anastasia when I was a kid — she used to wear an almost Victorian black dress and shoes, and in the winter she covered that with a cherry red down jacket. RZ is on her way to being much more of a character.
Has RZ’s cat died? That’s what we say in Scotchland when someone’s trousers – er, pants – are at half-mast.
The day I put on a jumpsuit is the day that I head to top of the Empire State Building to jump.
IS THAT what those pants are called? Hammer pants? You’d need a mighty big hammer to make me wear them…
Ummmm… the glasses are ok… kinda.
People PAY her for fashion advice? Really?

I really think the ski boot would have completed the full ensemble WAY better than those ridiculous wedges.
Reeb is so grateful to Bossy for keeping her abreast of all the fashions she’ll never wear.
Barf.
Hysterical post. I love how your mind connects those dots.
I had a jumpsuit once it was called a onesie.
I had a red jumpsuit when I was 12. I bought on a trip to California. I thought it was the coolest thing ever, this was in 1976!
Jumpsuits and Hammer pants are classic and timeless. Oh wait, they’re not. Never mind.
It is so funny what rich people will waste their money on to try and be “trendy”.
Someday this woman will be 60 and CRINGE at photos of herself wearing this crap. As all of us young’uns from the 1960’s and 1970’s can attest.
I am selfishly redirecting you to my blog today, because my friend Brian needs your support about adopting a puppy that needs a loving home. Please visit and leave your comments of support for him at: http://www.madtexter.com/2010/09/pause-for-paws.html
The only thing missing from the Gitmo version are the wooden handcuffs around your neck.
I’m also thinking I could pobably put that outfit together at my nearest Bass Pro Shop – just in case I am not cruisin’ the “bay” this year.
Sewmouse, I don’t cringe on seeing photos of myself from the ’60s. I sigh wistfully.
And then think, “Man! My mother let me wear that out of the house???”
If you have delicate sensibilities, guard your eyes from my comment. Anytime I see anyone in a jumpsuit I can’t help but think how they’d have to strip down just to go to the bathroom,dragging their clothes on the bathroom floor. Not so terrible when you’re at home but what about using a public bathroom? Ewww.
OK – I’ll “weigh in”. NO! It’s just ugly. That’s all.
Season finale of Rachel Zoe Project is Tuesday of next week – how time flies when we are watching neurotica in motion.
