Stylish with Substance

Onward you'll find good fun for women, men, and even TV geeks! Don't forget the photos get better, as this is a countdown...

Costumes, they are, but that doesn't make them ... right. Necessarily. On to the viewing - and fug - fun!

#12 - Miss France and her leaning "tour"

Here goes, with a swoosh, France being synonymous with "chic"

#11 - Miss USA would die kill for the cause

Which of our national treasure, the poor eagle, had to die?

#10 - Miss Lebanon, from fairy land

Lebanon is where princesses come from? *Books a flight*

#9 - Miss Great Britain, as if you couldn't tell

After Alexander McQueen's sad death, this was Miss Great Britain's best option.

#8 - Miss Venezuela. Hey, I didn't know Venezuela was in space. Oh, that's why it's called Miss "Universe"!

Lady GaGa called; she wants her haus back. Points off (seriously!) for being now-less-original.

(Fashion points for her matching shoes!)

#7 - Miss Kosovo, it's surprising she didn't win.

... What with her maenad powers and all. Scary.

#6 - Miss Australia ... is a scrolldown.

Or shall we say, "Miss Uggstralia"? Yes, those are Uggs. Heeled Uggs, to boot.

Seriously, though, is it hot and cold simultaneously there? Fur shoulders + Bare waist = Class-y.

Continue. It just gets better with the last five!

I love a good ruffle, but I think the key word there is "good". No one at Kate Spade noticed they should have halted production on this blouse, right, due to its "sad clown" nature.

While not the worst fashion ever, should one really dare sport this laughable top?

Do not do it like Sienna did here and pair the leotard-or-whatever with pantyhose that have a different color near the crotch. That signals underwear, and not the cute kind. This is not Madonna-level under-outer-wear chic.

Perhaps we should leave this to the diva, Gaga, no?

The Cut bloggers asked Anna Wintour what she thought of the pantsless trend. The infamous Vogue editor replied,

"I will never answer that question."

(As posted to their Twitter.)

We think it should be considered "wearing a skirt", like it used to, but we're classic here. (Or is that classy?)

From Harem pants to something even more familiar from childhood.

They're called Sultana Pants and these - to the left - can be found at Karma Loop.
