Vanessa Hudgens Slips Up
Oh Vanessa. Yes, your movie career tanked pretty fast, but has it really come to this? Are those real slippers, or one dark night did you just cut down an old pair of Uggs in a self-hating, Avril Lavigne-blaring frenzy? At least you have some pride: you’re a $975 Alexander Wang bag lady (retail).
Normally, I have a bit of a crush on Asher Levine’s superhero-worthy collections, particularly the footwear, which epitomizes Fierce.

And for the not-so-tender tootsies:
Asher Levine boot for all your ass kicking needs
but occasionally even the most brilliant and beloved of designers has That Moment. You know, That Moment of Inspiration where he suddenly sees something truly new, unique, daring…and someone should have leaned over and whispered “No.”
And That Moment when you think it’s a good idea to festoon the torso with an intricate filigree of intestines? That, my friend, IS That Moment.

Don’t forget to enter this week’s chillen-themed Caption Contest with Sunny Suri Cruise and her handler.
Here are some back-issue winners and their fabulous, completely imaginary prizes:

Diane von Furstenberg models a Thanksgiving hat from her Autumn/Winter 2011 collection
Congrats and imaginary swag to lali, a first-time winner. To celebrate her mighty triumph, we virtually present the Oscar de la Renta Feather Cashmere/Silk Knit Top. Hopefully it’s her size.
Next up, we have everybody’s favorite Dorothy Parker channeler/Galactic and Hollywood princess, Carrie Fisher, looking like Ozzie Osbourne losing big at an online casino.
Carrie, Fisher of souls

Dang, no Force Lightning this time either.
Kudos and imaginary swag to dr nic! To commemorate his her momentous triumph, we hypothetically present the entirely virtual and presumably protective against imaginary forces chainmail bandana and a whack of lightsaber lessons with New York Jedi.
Finally, we have our Zeta female, Catherine Zeta-Jones, looking like she’s starring in the softcore version of Zardoz (I’d watch that, provided they didn’t pair her with the 70-something Sean Connery).

“To access your T-Mobile account information, press star star . . . .”
We’ll just give him a moment to collect himself. Sometimes men come unglued in the presence of true star power.
Better? Okay, to FFE, a returning champ, we hypothetically present the very Zeta-Jonesworthy weapon of mass destruction, the Flos Table Gun Table Lamp.
Pity the poor little Fashion Troll! One (okay, two) anti-semitic on-camera rants and not only is he Dooced from Dior, he’s Gone from Galliano as well!
That’s right: just like Halston and many another poor sap before him, the Fashion Troll sold his name to a company that has a different set of priorities, priorities that apparently don’t include employing someone radioactive just because he’s also jaw-droppingly talented. While the fashion world is all a-Twitter about the question of who will be doing Galliano in a world which still, you know, contains Galliano, we here in the Manolosphere are more interested in what will happen to the once-mighty Troll when the (no doubt fabulous) rubber hits the road.
Since he’s apparently unemployable in the fashion world, let’s play Employment Counselor and see what potential professions would suit the erstwhile toast of Paris.
PR is obviously out.
Hello, Sailor! John Galliano is fit for an Olive Oyl
Sailor? Possibly, but it’s awfully hard to patrol the Mediterranean while simultaneously avoiding Israel.
Work it for dear life!
Model? Too short, too fat, too ugly, as he would tell himself after a few drinks. He’d probably also kick in “too Jewish” for good measure, although I don’t think it ever hurt Shalom Harlow any.
King? Kong!
King/Dictator For Life? Ask Mubarak or Gaddafi: dictators and absolute monarchs are SO 20th Century.
I don't know what that look is, other than deranged and vaguely fabulous
Some sort of Afghani toreador? Sorry, John, I think they used all the bulls in Afghanistan to clear minefields.
But can he type?
Newsie? They do say a straight line is the shortest distance between two points, and his infamous line was one of the straightest we’ve ever heard from the man, but as it didn’t succeed in bringing them closer, we say he fails on both sentence structure and geometry.
John Galliano IS a rake
Farmer? Not down-to-earth enough. Rake? Possibly, possibly. Is there money in that?
Galliano and Uncle Karl
Plus one? I’ve tried this, and you may be shocked, but it’s not that easy to make a living at it. The Diva Diet is notoriously hard on your liver. Also, you think he’s still going to be Uncle Karl’s plus one? He’ll be lucky to be seen in a Twitpic with Tara Reid.
John Galliano understudies Liza
Road show of Cabaret?
John Galliano demonstrates how the mother bird feeds her little model
Ornithology nutrition specialist? Model dietitian?
Hello. My Name is John Galliano. You keeled my career. Prepare to die!
Rapie— you know, I’m not gonna finish that one.
Is that a paperback in your pocket or are you happy to see me?
Filthy magazine vendor?
Duuuude!
Stoner? I think this one may win Most Likely To.
Asshatstronaut?
This could be a winner, folks. I don’t imagine at this point we’d encounter too much opposition to the idea of shooting him into space, although we’d probably have to promise not to bring him back.
Truly hath the poet and wise man said that no royal wedding, christening, or restraining order hearing is complete without a Bad Fairy. Given the charmed lives led by heir to the British throne and his intended bride, and the fact that his Great-Aunt Margaret is dead, there is no particularly obvious candidate for the office. We in the Manolosphere would like to present our own official candidate for this office:
Tara “I’m a drug addict, not a pedophile” Palmer-Tomkinson.
Co-starring with Mickey Rourke in The Boxer?
Cocaine is a helluva drug, people, and with an $800 dollar a day habit it doesn’t matter how many nose jobs you throw at it; you’re essentially throwing good money after bad cartilage. Tara, the woman once rumoured to have taken Prince William’s virginity, is invited to the wedding, but wants to get her nose done first. At this point, however, it becomes a Michael Jackson situation: there needs to be something there to work on in the first place.
Let’s toast Tara’s heart’s desire with your choice of a Mad Fairy cocktail or a Donkey’s Nob (made with Coke, of course).

Karl Lagerfeld has some funny priorities
Lagerfeld encourages starvation. “I used to place food in my mouth, but then spit it out again,” he said. “That way I got the taste without the calories. I haven’t done that for a long time, but it is a good way to beat the frustration.”
Oh, Karl. Before Julian Assange came along, you were my favorite Bond Villain. Now? You’ve suddenly turned into my Least-Favorite Auntie in the Home, Doped to the Gills and Still Convinced She’s Making Perfect Sense.
