I would definitely wear the Vintage "Klimt Dress" from Giorgio Sant'Angelo :0

I love tumbling blocks but would NOT be caught dead in that dress...

Uhhhh, I think if I wore them to teach in, I would have the kids' attention, but probably not on the lesson...........

Definite NO to everything except...the man's vintage jacket. That is a great inspiration for a woman's jacket.

Would I want to be seen with a MAN wearing that one though? Ummm...no. My men are more jeans and boots kinda men.

Ahahahahahahahaha! We have a saying at my house ( tongue in cheek, of course), "is somebody smoking crack?"

Love the Klimt dress & the pucci jacket looks cool, but I agree, "not for a man", lol.

The Klimt dress is a possibility but that's it. Tumbling blocks is hideous...OK that's a little strong...but still

Tumbling blocks cracked me up. But I wouldnt even want to see anyone I knew wearing it, let alone wear it myself. I'm with Royalboomer and Gonesewin on the Klimt - if I wore dresses I might even consider that one Smile

LOL Even the model in the tumbling blocks looks unhappy. At our house the saying is "Not even to a cat-fight would I wear that!" Still LOLing.

My 1st thought was "WHAT were they thinking?" Sure hope they didn't invest too much money designing these cause they'd probably lose their 'shirt' over these design...ROFL!!

The hst suit reminds me of pj's...lol!!

LOL! I liked the jacket (for a woman, not a man) and I can picture DD#2 in the Klimt dress, but that's about it.

I read this post the other day and checked out the pictures, but had to go back for a second look. I like the Klimt Dress, but don't think that I am tall enough for something like that. Not sure where I would wear such a thing either. The Pucci Jacket is pretty cool too, but definitely not on a man.

How about this hideous thing?!? It really makes me wonder what people were thinking.

From Barbara's blog, I'm not sure which is more hideous--the court jester or the tumbling blocks.

Oh! Oh! Did you read the description? "It doesn't get any better than this?????"
