This is awesome. I especially like the one about dressing as the babysitter. That’s exactly what she was thinking!
For my part, I am always intrigued / annoyed by the models wearing the super casual clothes with the super high heels. I own sloppy joes, too big jeans. I would look great in them if I could just slip on a pair of those heels. But I can’t, because I would fall off the train station platform. Do these models live in a delicate, perfectly flat world where there is plenty of time to deliberately place each step? Some of them are even walking on the beach in their heels. How do they do it?
The secret of their high-heel success: They take the shoes off and put on their kicks right after the photographer stops snapping. 😉
Honestly, though, Ive had several friends do stints as models and it is just practice, practice, practice. Though most of them really did wear sneakers any time they weren’t on the clock.
I was trying to pick a favorite, and I can’t. Every single one is a masterpiece. Hats off. Because you made me laugh. Also because I have a date tonight.
Is it wrong, though, that I kinda covet that kimono? It’s so Blanche Deveraux in the best way possible. I would wear it while I flounce around my apartment on Sunday mornings.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Great post……poor Mr. Chicken.
I laughed out loud. so spot on
Add to your talents mindreading.
Love it! You nailed the overly dramatic yet accessible vibe I’m sure they were shooting for.

Love this post! Inspired and hilarious! Reminds me a bit of the J Peterman catalog. 🙂

Fabulous. I needed this this morning.

Oh my god. This was too perfect! *internet high five*
Hilarious!!! LOVE!
OMG I needed that laugh so much. 😀
Also, I am so ripping this idea off on my blog. (I will totally give you credit.)
This is a brilliant idea… I may steal it. (I probably won’t give credit.)
I mean, then you would “probably” be an asshole, but whatever.
Ha ha! Mr. Chicken is my favorite.
Hahahaha! What an awesome idea. Too funny!

Lovely. I can’t wait to buy them all.
Who the hell wrote this??? I love it!
So funny! I have never thought of ads like this, but I know the next time I see models wearing something questionable I will def. try this!
Thanks!
Hilarious! My cousins used to do stuff like this with pictures, but not quite as well :]
This is the most excellent thing.
Amazing! Please do this again!

These made me laugh, and oh, I needed that! Enjoy!
My comment on your followup post was actually intended for THIS one–and I see you presciently ignored it. Hmph. Great concept, and execution.

Who knew clothes had the potential to be so hilarious. No, wait, that would be a costumer, wouldn’t it?
