Make His Day.


I advise you not to mock the "veggie-saurus" on his sweater. 
(Poor anger management skills.  Plus he's fairly ruthless with that croquet mallet.)

Help! I've Fallen...


"Help!  I've fallen in my skin-tight sequined leopard print skirt and baggy metallic sweater with fuzzy, striped sleeves... and I can't get up!"

Carefree

Sure, the cover says it's "carefree"...


...but I don't care what they say:  Someone always ends up hurt (and maybe bleeding) in those "free love" situations.

(Ok, maybe it's just me, but that pose makes it look like the girls are sharing Eric Forman, there.) 

How many of you want one of those groovy granny-square-and-stripes tops?  Actually, I do kind of like the sleeves... They're kind of a toned-down, mild-mannered version of Molly Weasley's sleeves.

Peace, Love & Happiness


This photo just makes me laugh.  What is she doing and why?  She appears to be playing some sort of flute while wearing flowers in her hair...  Is she at a gathering for modern hippies? (Nah, cant be that.  She's wearing shoes, for one thing...)  You get the feeling that she may have been hitting the ol' peace pipe, though. 

Anyway, thanks for the laugh, flute-playing flower-power lady!

Awkward

Sure, the little "necklace" and "bracelet" of puffy stitches look slightly silly... but what really gets me is the model's awkward pose (what is she doing with her right arm?) and vaguely concerned expression (probably due to the painful pose the cruel photographer insists she hold)...

Bad Hair x 2

First:  This 'do is the way to go if you want your hair to look thin and unhealthy:


(Poor guy...  He'd look so much better with a different haircut!)

...Then you have the mysterious world of high fashion, where rat's nest hair is (sometimes) not only tolerated, but even encouraged:


Looks like that electric guitar might have given her a slight case of electrocution.

Despondent


Careless of the risk she ran of getting dirt on her crisp, white apparel, Vanessa sat on the floor, her head leaned wearily upon the sofa arm-rest as she stared blankly into space.  Life was a farce.  Not even her favorite shoulder-padded white sweater could lift her spirits today...

Thank You for Being a Friend

 
It was at times like this, when she found herself kneeling on the floor in the beautifully diffused light emanating from the paper screens, that Etta most fully recognized the worth of a friend like Jess.  Anyone else would've asked what in the heck they were supposed to be doing, there on the floor-- why she was posed so dramatically, with her hand on her hip and the tips of her pointy, pointy boots touching the floor.  But not Jess.  She understood.

The Adventurous Knitwear Model

Most of the time, when you're looking through knitting and crochet patterns, you get the typical fare of women standing in various poses... occasionally sitting.  If the photographer or art director was really bold, there may be some unusual props or backgrounds, but for the most part, it's a little bit bland.

...And then you get a photo like this:


"Though sweater-knitting comes in at a close second, there is no pastime Arabella enjoys quite so much as falconry." 

She's something of an every(wo)man for your average knitter, isn't she?

Erm...

This model's expression says, "Did I leave the iron on?"

Beach Bum

On one hand, this model looks like the epitome of the beach bum...


...but on the other, maybe a beach bum is practically the only type of man who would wear this type of garment.

Excess

Two hair-related excesses to be avoided by models and fashion photographers at all costs:

Excessive "add-drama-to-the-photo-shoot fan":


Excessive hair tossing:

What a Scoop!


Looks like that's a very engrossing article!

(Also note the late-80s-ish/early-90s-ish sweater.  Thank you.)

Diagnosis YarnYuck


This looks like an acute case of fug-induced coma... 

...but then again, I'm not a doctor (don't even play one on TV), nor am I a reputable fashion critic (is there such a thing?).

Break-Up Blues


At least she still had darling Fifi... and she was casually conscious that she looked especially ravishing in her tweedy cardigan.  Eat your heart out, Bill!

Nuzzle


Arnold was sadly afflicted with the inability to look natural (and not vaguely awkward or creepy) in a photo.

Reach for the Sky


"You're on the right track, darling, but try reaching just a little higher, okay?  Yes!  That's it!  Hold that position!"

Elementary!


Dapper young Sherlock Holmes looks dashing in his red sweater... and matching pants.

Celebrity Look-Alike


Angela (from The Office) shows a little skin...
(Or maybe not.  But I do see a certain resemblance.)
