Get it Together: Shapeless Shifts

We realize that shapeless flowy dresses are very in right now, in fact, we even wear them with shameless abandon. Check out this version from Marni Spring 2007:



The model is teeny, the dress is huge, yet somehow, it all seems to come out ok. We see copious women pulling off this look in NYC. The shape here is lollipop and as long as we're not talking about people's heads being too large for their anorexic bodies, we're all over it.

However, we saw something last night that really got us riled up. So angry in fact we felt the need to snap a stealth picture. Apologies for the quality but drastic measures need to be taken when one attends happy hour wearing one's nightgown.



Note the girl in the center. She's wearing something out of Twas The Night Before Christmas. All we ask is that people dress for their body types (and that they refrain from wearing pajamas in public). It's not the garment itself we have a problem with, it's just the way it's worn. I think if Consuelo Castiglioni were present to the above debacle she would echo our sentiments: please, for the love of god, throw on a belt.
