Honor - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

While this cut specifically might be a tad matronly on most people, the idea is pretty, and I bet it looked great coming down the runway.

This print is interesting, too. Honor is quickly becoming a show that I really enjoy watching ,regardless of whether I am in love with every piece. There's always something to mull.

Every time I see a dress like this, I think, "Elle Fanning." I don't know why. But as dresses go, this DOES seem fairly Elle Fanning.

I'm mildly afraid that this ALSO makes me think of Elle Fanning.

AND THEN. It's ba-aaaack. All that tulle adds literally nothing EXCEPT length.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

See? It's not a perfect dress without it, but it's about 85 percent better.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

AND AGAIN. WILL THIS NEVER STOP. Also, we've seen a hundred of this style lately.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

And again, see how much better it is without the extra pointless froof?

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Please make it stop.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

NO, REALLY. I AM DONE WITH THESE.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

There's no way this silhouette is going to look good on any mortal woman.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

It's... not the most inspiring use of plaid.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Also not the most inspiring use of lace, nor pants. It's like Chico's made pajamas for Victoria's Secret. Or the other way around.

Tadashi Shoji - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

But THIS is lovely, so we've got that going for us.

Costello Tagliapietra - Runway - MADE Fashion Week Spring 2014

This is quite cool, too.

This is... not.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

I do not like those pants, madame. I do not like them, Sam-I-Am.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

This person maybe should stop making pants altogether.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

This is NOT what I meant.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

ALSO not what I meant.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

This is never ANYTHING I have meant, ever.

Tocca - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

But again: Something to like.

Richard Chai - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

If dresses over pants comes back, as a legit thing, I am going to cry.

Richard Chai - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

This is so overworked, like a map that's been wrongly re-folded seventeen times.

Richard Chai - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Insert Tim Gunn's REALLY Worried Face Here.

An orange-red leather jacket, though? Probably. None of the REST of it needs to come home with me, but I'll gladly take that and give it a test run.

Richard Chai - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

And I really like this pattern, but just perhaps... done differently.

BCBGMAXAZRIA - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Proof positive that this style of pant DOES NOT WORK on ANYONE.

BCBGMAXAZRIA - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Don't let pseudo-overalls happen to you.

BCBGMAXAZRIA - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Proof positive that "just add more tulle" is never the answer.

BCBGMAXAZRIA - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Proof positive that slapping thick-rimmed hipster specs on an outfit does not a success make.

BCBGMAXAZRIA - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

This feels like more patterns than BCBG usually employs. I like some of the fabrics; just not necessarily quite how they were all displayed.

Nicholas K - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

Male models are HILARIOUS.

Nicholas K - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

But then things here took an uncomfortable turn.

Nicholas K - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

I am not sure whether to laugh or be horrified.
