Daniel Radcliffe, Harold Potter, Fashion Victim

Posted on by

Look, my rule of thumb when it comes to dressing myself is: Would Harold (Harry to a select group of friends) Potter wear it? Otherwise known as: WHPWI? So when I saw this picture, I felt encouraged. I have piles of camouflage pants and sports coats that are a steak dinner or three too tight. Quite obviously, camo and sports coats don’t go together. Nor would Harold usually wear it. Until now:

Oh, hell yeah. Time to get my fashion victim on. . .

Talent in one arena does not automatically confer genius in another.

Take, for example, Steve Nash (the NBA superstar, two-time MVP from the Phoenix Suns) and his experiment into the world of menswear. Observe his toothy, Jack the Ripper-esque grin. Yes, he has a good crossover dribble. No, he does not make a suit I would wear:

Notice Steve’s popped collar, ala Dracula. Or Sesame Street. (I love to count!)

Staying with the vampy theme, we have Victoria Beckham (in one of her creations.) A mere Google search of fashion victims revealed her vampireness. Mrs. David Beckham:

Back to the fellas. Kevin Federline was married to Britney Spears for two heartbeats a presidential administration ago. He had this to say about kids’ jeans:

“It’s a really tough business, I’m trying to take it seriously and make a quality product for kids but not have parents pay like $500 or something ridiculous for a pair of jeans,” the ex-Mr. Britney Spears told WWD.

Now, let’s take a look at K-Fed, the fashion plate. Wait, that clown is designing clothes? Hell no:

What discussion of clothing is complete without at least one swipe at Gaga and her Frankenstein machinations:

Lady Gaga, fashion victim. Blog blog fashion baby, work that. . .

We will end with the 90s superstar Liam Gallagher of Oasis and his wooly self-designed jacket. Do I need to add snark or is it sewn into every stitch?

Truly, I am in the Navy where my clothes are pre-selected for maximum wearing benefit. So perhaps, I have no place pointing and laughing. But it is fun, no?
