Decor Couture: Best & Worst

I am completely blown away by all the talent this week! This is probably our most difficult theme to pull off, and you guys really brought your A game and did Mel proud!

Black
eeleenyte10 ~ juicy-much ~ -LimitedEdition
 
Perez: All three of these are so awesome I don't even know where to begin! eeleenyte10's outfit is so cool and edgy, I can totally see Lady Gaga rocking that. I love the chimney screen as the "lace" neckline, and how she added height to her shoes with the vases, and the over-sized bow-tie is so cute! The layering of the pillows to create the skirt is really nicely done and gave it a cool shape. juicy-much's gown is stunning, the details on that Fallen Angel decoration give it the most beautiful ruching effect, but I have to deduct points for using a top for the neckline and strap. I feel like she could have used the decorations and achieved the same look. -LimitedEdition looks so unbelievably chic, how cute is that toilet seat cover beret?! I love her outfit, you can tell a lot of time and thought was put into it. It's layered seamlessly! I especially love the vases as sleeves, and all the little details at the bottom of the skirt that look like fabric are actually the shadows on cupcake gifts added to give it that flowy effect!

Linda: Decor outfits being one of the most harder outfits to pull off, I must say I'm very impressed. eeleenyte10's outfit even though shaped very oddly I'd say she pulled it off with the top half of the dress. Chimney screen were place brilliantly, and paired with a the bow nicely. I'm not a fan of the shoes. Juicy-much, what a name! The dress, I've seen loads of people wear that exact decor piece in basically the same way. It's nice but didn't stand out amongst the rest. -LimitedEdition you were my favorite out of this group! You paid lots of attention to the little things like your collar. I love the silver detailing a lot! Also the beret, well done!

Dei: Yeah the same as Linda said, I am seen millions of people use that same Fallen Angel item the same way, so.. that is why I am not in love with juicy-much's outfit. While my favorite here is -LimitedEdition's! I mean really, its so neat and lovely, it looks like a real Stardoll made dress. And eeleenyte10's is kinda edgy, but I am not in love with the bow broach-bra.

Celeblover44 ~ Rascal313 ~ LoveGossip4life
 
Perez: Celeblover's dress is very simple but well-done, it took me a minute to realize those were vases. It just looks like an elegant LBD at first glance, and I love the candlestick as the belt, and her cute flower clip! Rascal's outfit I'm on the fence about. I like the skirt and how she added the chandelier to give it those great beading details, but I feel like it's missing something, like it needed a little jacket or shrug. LoveGossip4life admitted that she cheated and used clothing for her outfit, so she gets a bit of a thumbs down, though I do like how she added the lace and I love her headpiece!


Linda: Ok, Celeblover44. What are you wearing? I have no clue that that dress is made out of (oh after 2mins staring, I gave up and read Perez's comment) but the shape isn't pleasing... at all. That look bored me. Rascal313, finally someone used that decor item and didn't do a long boring gown like one of the girl did in the last group. I like that you didn't over do it, instead you used just the right amount of things. Lovegossip4life cheated, no way! Your outfit is nice, love the lace you add to the top and bottom of the dress and also the belt. The headpiece, it's ok...  

Dei: Lovegossip's is the worst here since she DID add a skirt, which is a big no no, and to be honest, the dress she made with it is kinda fugs, along with the weird looking headpiece. While I think Rascal's was HAUTE, though she did use that same over used item, she did it in a more original way, so I like it. And Celeblover's is my favorite here! Its so 1920's chic, very minimalistic mod. But I hate the headpiece.

Blue
liajm ~ kieshagiesha ~ semimilor_jonas ~ coolperson765
 
Perez: I'm completely obsessed with Lia's dress, the seahorses are TOO CUTE!! I would totally buy that dress if I could, and I love how her background compliments the underwater theme! Kiesha, our sea nymph goddess, totally impressed me this week, the gown is gorgeous and whimsical and her feathered headpiece is such a nice touch. I really like the added dimension of the splashes at her waistline, and the bubble hemline! I like the detail on semimilor_jonas's tube top, it looks like a real print and is very pretty. The skirt is cool too, are those plates? Plates and glowsticks right? coolperson's dress I don't like at all, there's just nothing cute about those pillows, by no stretch of the imagination do they look like an outfit. It's a shame because the glamorous lamp fringe at the bottom is cool.


Linda: Liajm kind of played dirty. My loving seahorses there is no way I can hate this look!It's like the swan dress, minus the swan. Kiesha, I love the feathered headpiece. I just love it all, you are by far my favorite! Semimilor_jonas' it's a very 'boxy' look. I don't like it. Coolperson, your look, (LMAO) well you look soft... but that outfit is so bad I wouldn't rest my head on you. Had you lost the pillows, and done something to the chandelier, like add the white curtains like Kiesha did and you'd have a better outfit.

Dei: I think she is a very very sweet girl, but I seriously don't like Lia's at all.. I seriously think the seahorses look tacky and that the towels make her medoll look pregnant. Kiesha's looks so flamboyant, I love it! While the other two's shapes are frumpy and lumpy. But lmao, I don't want to sound mean, but coolperson, what the HELL were you thinking when you threw on those pillows, girl?

Pink
CelebLover44 ~ Medisa ~ PerezStarGossip ~ vitalstatistick
 
Perez: I'm in love with CelebLover's outfit here!! It just looks like something she bought in Starplaza, just a cool little mini-dress with awesome oversized rosettes, that's how well put together it is. And again, another cute little headpiece, love it! Head to toe she looks awesome. Medisa is like the Barbie version of Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island, I love her pigtails and how she did the little puff sleeves! (Click Here to see what she used.) I was going for a futuristic look, like a high fashion Judy Jetson :D:D vitalstatistick looks cute, if I squint I can imagine the balls as some sort of print, and I like the belt and the cute butterfly shoes that match perfectly. I'm not crazy about the hairstyle though, or the bow, it seems out of place. (Click Here to see what she used in this and the other 3 outfits she made, which you'll see further down on the list.)


Linda: Celeblover44, now this is 100% better! The shoe could have been different but the diy part of your outfit is just amazing! Medisa, hmm I'm not sure if I like this look or not. I like the cotton candy top, but I'm sort of having a love hate relationship with that skirt. Perez, right when I saw your outfit I laughed or smiled... one of the two! Not because it was bad, but because your outfit is so girly and playful. Love the skirt, but that hair... I'd probably would change that. Vitalstatistick, purple balls... at least they weren't blue! I'm not amazed by this dress, but it's ok.

Dei: Celeblover, you look great here! But to be honest, I have seen someone use roses like that before, so it isn't shocking to me, BUT I am not going to suggest you copied them. LOL, Perez, I remember when i first saw your outfit, I removed the fuzzy lamp at the bottom, and you looked like a 60's go-go dancer, all you need is some face paint. Medisa's is cute, not bad at all. While Vitalstatistick's, though its not a bad dress, reminds me of a bunch of warts.. :(

alice2078 ~ mskendall4198 ~ Shiningstar746 ~ starsuperjr
 
Perez: I can't get into Alice's, I get that she tried to make a fun little romper but it just looks like she's wearing a wet diaper. I find the cupcakes on mskendall4198 and starsuperjr to be very distracting, though starsuper's hat is awesome I think that was well-done. Still, it's hard to look past the individual cupcakes and see an outfit. Shiningstar746, oh no..que paso? You look like someone Carrie Bradshawed your ass in an alley and stole your Manolos. I get not being able to turn out an awesome outfit, it's a tough theme, but there's no excuse for no shoes and no accessories. F-

Linda: What the....Where do I begin? Alice, I love the bow but those hearts are not pleasing on your medoll's model thin figure. Mskendall4198 ahh no. Hate the cupcakes... hate the outfit! Shiningstar746 cute outfit, I don't really have much to say about it. Last outfit just no... no no no!

Dei: LOL, alice2078's looks like she has two asses in the front with a nice pair of sassy tits. Starsuper, nice effort but, it could have been neater. Shiningstar's is.. boring, and lacking. And Mskendall, do you like it when I stare at your cupcakes? *wink*
White
loveshorses5
 
Linda: LOVE! I so love this look! The dress well made, that little playground thing (jungle gym? what the name for that thing.)

Perez: Now this I love, Mairin always looks great! A lot of people used curtains, but she did it in a more interesting way. I really like the crazy netted headpiece/top, it's very cool. She looks like an intergalactic princess! :D:D

Dei: J'dore this. I really do. But I don't know if I like the dome or not.

-lovely2009-, To_Royal, Welsh_witch, Luxury_Magazine
 
Linda: Now these girls know how to dress. -Lovely2009- lovely outfit! I've seen the whole disco ball thing before, but I like this outfit. To_Royal yawn... your outfits are always amazing, try doing a bad outfit! Dei's outfit is my favorite! Very detailed, great job... as usual! Welsh_witch, great outfit, I could have done without the thing over your shoulder but overall nice outfit! Another best dressed alumni Luxury_magazine, I actually really love the shape of this dress! Simple yet chic, I love it!

Dei: Lovely's(pixels) are SEXY, and flashy, I am so jealous of her right now. But my favorite here is Luxury's! I love classic looking outfits, and hers in my head screams art deco in b&w. Hmm, Rhiann(welsh_witch), I am not into the towels :( But the curtain helps this a lot.

Perez: It looks like a unanimous vote because I love -lovely2009-'s oufit too! The way that the gems are sized gives it nice dimension, and the little details like the gift banner as the ruffled neckline and the crystal chandelier beading at the bottom really give it a realistic look. Dei always looks good, and this is no exception! As awesome as the dress is, I think I'm most obsessed with the hair, gorgeous (and so is her make-up)! Okay so the dress, the silver horse tails look like silk and the shape of the dress is lovely. I love the jeweled bodice, the neckline and necklace, I love it all, but (I think this is the first time I've ever given Dei a "but"!) the chandelier. It looks like it's just lodged in her crotch, both painful and unflattering. She needed to layer in more tails for the skirt for sure. Rhiann gives me a Scottish kilt vibe, not in a bad way! I think it's just the sash down the front, but I really do like it a lot it's shaped really well and accessorized beautifully! Luxury said she had a tough time putting this together, I really couldn't tell because she looks amazing! Dei nailed it when she called it art deco, it's completely inspired!

punkyfish2007, biancaloves, mskendall4198, vitalstatistick
 
Linda: Who is the bride? You all look like you guys are marrying one of the few 'straight' guys/trannies here on stardoll. Remember if they say they're straight, there is 99.9% chance they're not. Punkyfish2007, love the look very clean and love the minimum accessories. Biancaloves, I love this look too, as the last one clean. Mskendall4198, strange finish of the dress, I don't like it. Vitalstatistick thank god you did another outfit. That first one hurt me eyes! This one is more presentable.

Dei: I agree with Linda, other than mskendall's, you all do look like you are about to get married, lol. But you all look good. But mskendall, how many damn glowsticks do you own?!!

Perez: I love love love punkyfish2007's and vitalstatistick's!! Punky's egg sweetheart neckline and modern train are so fresh and young for a wedding dress, and vital's jeweled bodice is to die, love it (but again with that awful hair and the little black bow, why??) I see what Bianca was trying to achieve with the white peacocks along the neckline and it looks cool, but it's sloppy. The way the skirt is layered is really pretty though. mskendall's I just don't like at all. The only part of it that's DIY decor is the skirt, and it's awful. Just a big ol' mess.

danceontheclock, audreyxbeth, cherrox247, mysecketlover

 
Linda: These looks are starting to get boring... Danceontheclock, not bad, just blahhhh. Nothing standing out. Audreyxbeth same to you, it's a very safe look. Cherrox247 what are you a farm, zoo? Oh my, I know what you are. Aren't you one of those animal hoarders? I've seen people like you on TV. Emmie, cute... but boring.

Dei: Cherrox, MURDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! But Audrey, what the hell is up with your medoll's left foot? And the heel of the right one looks broken. O.o

Perez: danceontheclock and myseckretlover, nice efforts but completely boring. Though I do like myseckretlover's simple styling with the hair, bracelet, and shoes, all and all it's a good look. Audrey gave this spiel in the comments about how an outfit isn't truly decor couture if you don't DIY your shoes and accessories, so that's why her shoes look wonky. It looks like they're the same bubbles and bow of the dress's bodice, but I have no idea how she did the heel. The purse looks like curtains meant resemble fringe on a box or something. Whatever it is, I don't like it. The dress itself is nice though, I really like the bubbles and the lamp shell skirt. Okay I know it's ridiculous, but I can't help but like cherrox247's dress! It's shaped surprisingly well for being a bunch of pets, and I mean come on she made an animal print dress! Literally!! How can you not love that?! Lol!

Earth Tones
ashy_loves_you ~ lilsha123 ~ Syligirl
 
Linda: Ashy_loves_you, I'm not crazy about the hair, I do like the grass skirt the top is pretty much, blahh. Lilsha123 had you not worn those shoe I wouldn't have like it! Love how you paired that dress with the shoes, the dress itself is, not bad. Syligirl, I like the outfit! Great shape! The shoes are nice, love the cross on the neck. Great outfit!

Dei: Ashy, there is WAY too much going on, I don't know whether to focus on the crazy hair, the glowing top, or the freshly mowed from the front lawn grass. Lilsha's is really cute and flower child, if she had a more flowing hairstyle, I would love it. Syligirl's structure is nice.

Perez: I actually like Ashton's hair, I like the windblown effect! And I like his top a lot too, I think it's chic and edgy. If he had done a basic black pencil skirt instead of that ridiculous bush he'd have been one of my favorites. lilsha's, like cherrox's animal print, is another one I can't resist: a literal sundress! That kind of thing just wins me over! :D:D That aside, I'd think it was a cute dress regardless, though the skirt could have been done a little sharper. Totally agreed on the shoes with it, love them! But Syligirl really takes the cake, I absolutely LOVE that dress, it's stunning! Such a great shape, love the snakeskin tile, and her overall look is hot. The hair, makeup, cross tattoo, shoes, all of it is awesome.

punkyfish2007 ~ vitalstatistick (both) ~ kieshagiesha
 
Linda: Punkyfish2007, I like the other look more but this one is ok. There just some many thing combined. Wow Vitalstatistick home many looks have you done! The first one looks like you ran into a tree, the second look isn't really diy. Kiesha hmm, I don't really like it, at all.

Dei: Punky, I don't know whether or not I like this dress, the multiple brown shades kinda clash, but the even fit of it all makes it look neat. While I know I hate this look from Kiesha, peacock feather outfits are over used and this one is a failed attempt at it, sorry. While vital's flashy dress (the X-mas tree) is giving me a migraine, and I am being serious too.. :<

But to end this list, everyone did amazing efforts! Though I may have said a lot of peoples look odd or strange, I really do love everyone's attempts, it shows how much you like to dress for Radio Perez, and I love it :)

Perez: Of this group my favorite is punky's, I think without the bow and with different shoes it would have been very chic. I especially love the butterfly wings at the neckline! With both of vital's gowns, while I appreciate the creativity and the cool idea of incorporating unique pieces like the chimney as a top, the overall looks achieved just aren't aesthetically pleasing =/ The forest dress could have been great with different styling (Have I mentioned I hate the hair and the bow? Cuz I hate them. A lot.), I feel like you should have gone full on Mother Nature with it and then it would have been a gorgeous costume look. kiesha's peacock dress is nice, it doesn't really stand out at all but I don't dislike it.

DECADES: Best & Worst!

This list is soooo late!! My internet sucks blah blah making excuses blah, okay you forgive me right?? I apologize, truly, it's been a crazy week. No theme for this week obviously, but I will post next week's theme on Tuesday!

20's
SilverLilly8971


Perez: This is by far my favorite flapper, which is saying a lot since there were so many great looks submitted for this era! The splash of color, the gorgeous accessories, and the placement of the fur are just so perfect and really make this outfit stand out from the rest.

Jack: UGH, SO CLASSY IT MAKES ME WANNA DIE. Loving the all black-and-silver image with a splash of red, really splashes some colour onto the scene, le fabuloso!

Dan: Gorgeous, I love it! Perhaps without the purse next time? everything else looks amazing though and I like the flashes of red throughout.

ebonymeme

Perez: This is so cute! Definitely the most fun of the 20's outfits submitted, probably because it was based on a costume, and it's the fun and glamor of the 1920's that makes the flapper such a popular and iconic costume to begin with. It was a magical time where fashion, music, and even the American economy blossomed, before it all went to shit in the 30's =/

Jack: Such a fun and cute look! Is that a tranny in the reference picture?


Dan: Honestly I think it looks more slapper than flapper, the dress and fishnets looks like standard skank wear. I love the head band though, that's really cute and is my favorite part of the outfit, personally.



-lovely2009-

Perez: Absolutely genius idea to submit this in black and white! It really elevated an already lovely outfit to another level. I love the authenticity, the simple accessories, and the perfect stoic expression on her doll.

Jack: She looks perfect from top to bottom! I also love that she submitted it in black and white, such a classy touch!

Dan: I agree with Perez and Jack, the black and white effect really makes this look classy and authentic. I'd say this is probably the most authentic look, nothing is too much and it just looks perfect.


LoveGossip4life, Almag7607, sethisDOOMED, sko1234

Perez: As I said before, all the flappers were great! Of this group I think the prettiest is Almag7606, but I also love LoveGossip's accessories and the overall style of sethisDOOMED. sko1234's is a little crazy old lady-ish, but I think that's part of its appeal! :D:D

Jack: sko1234 looks a bit over done, but the rest look beaut! Liking the colour co-ordination with LoveGossip4life's.

Dan: I like Almag7606's flapper the most, its goregous and her make up is perfectly done. I agree with Jack that sko1234 over did it slightly but they are all good.




CelebLover44, kitkat91011, Laurenboy


Jack: They all look awkward and unorganized. CelebLover44 looks like she was dragged through the Decades store backwards and the other two look to underdone and messy.

Perez: Yeah that assessment of CelebLover is pretty accurate, she was going for Coco Chanel but it just looks messy and has none of Coco's elegance and style. kitkat's is nice but lacking. Laurenboy looks great in my opinion, I love the layering of the skirts!

Dan: I agree with Jack and Perez on CelebLover, I quite liked Laurenboy's for the same reason as Perez, shame there was no make up. I for one like kitkat91011's outfit, I like the tassles and the head band once again and I think it would have been pretty awesome minus the vile bag.


30's
BellaCullen4210, theloveablenerd, -LimitedEdition, Kimmilee1


Jack: All four of them look elegant-ish and classy-ish, bravo for trying!

Dan: I like them all apart from Kimmilee1. I love the hats they chose and it all looks pretty authentic.

Perez: I adore theloveablenerd's, she looks like she's about to go on a The Mummy-style excavation in Egypt! What a charming 1930's explorer, a lovely and unique choice for this decade! -LimitedEdition as usual looks fabulous, this reminds me of the old Vogue cover that I found for this theme's banner, really elegant and ladylike. I love all the little details, they give it a really special touch. The other two outfits are nice but forgettable. Well Bella's is nice, Kimmi looks ridiculous. I'm fairly certain tube tops were not in fashion in the 30's.

50's
liajm

Perez: She didn't submit 50's Sock Hop Barbie as a reference for her outfit, but it's the first thing I thought of when I saw it! Well the first thing I thought of was Happy Days and the Grease Pink Ladies, then 50's Barbie, but you knowhatImean! It just makes me want to go to a diner and grab a milkshake and sing along with the juke box, I LOVE it!!

Jack: CUTE! 50's Barbie was a superb choice, but a different hairstyle wouldn't have hurt.

Dan: I love it, as Perez mentioned I thought of Grease straight away, the shoe layering is super cute and over all I feel like this is the most fun outfit in the list. Although as Jack said, I wish she had picked a different hair style.

Jean Harlow
Faita_14


Jack: You can't throw on a fur shrug and call yourself Jean Harlow. You gotta WURK IT, and Faita_14 certainly did not.

Perez: I don't know what you're talking about Duckie, this is absolutely stunning! She definitely should have gone platinum blonde and perhaps a different hairstyle altogether would have been better, but it is a gorgeous and well put together outfit. I'm glad she didn't take the easy way out and use the outfit released with the Film Theory collection.

Dan: I disgree with Jack, I would have guessed Jean Harlow if I saw this without a caption and I am glad she didn't go with the platinum curly hair that would have dragged it into the Marilyn Monroe catagory.


Laurenboy, ashleysstar, loveshorses5, hotgirl1501

Dan: loveshorses5 is so lovely and her outfit is stunning, it looks like it's straight out of Hairspray to me. The rest are kind of boring and ashleysstar looks like a farmer...

Perez: I just love how everyone did something different for this decade, different but still completely perfect and relevant. Laurenboy as a bookish school marm in a decade where women were first starting to really take their education seriously and pursue careers, ashleystar as an adorable country cutie who I can totally picture hanging out on the farm with Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, lovehorses5 in the iconic 50's "poodle" skirt ensemble, and hotgirl1501 as a wealthy and elegant widow lol!


60's
PerezStarGossip

Jack: In the words of the very talented Rebecca Black: FUN! FUN! FUN! FUN! How can you not smile looking at this? It's wonderful! Must...move on...cheeks...hurting...

Perez: I've been buying furniture for an Austin Powers-themed room for a while now, and finally I had an excuse to put it all together!

Dan: Fabulous, darling! Perez wins this week hands down.

Edie Sedgewick
ashy_loves_you


Jack: Eh....I don't really know why, but my smiles have faded...it's just shit.

Perez: I disagree, I think this is an excellent Edie! The whole outfit was very well thought out, he nailed all the Edie details with the chandelier earrings, fur coat, make-up and hair. I think it's a great outfit and I would have known who he was even had he not told me. (I couldn't find a good picture of Edie in her fur coat, so I had to settle for this shot of Sienna Miller portraying Edie in Factory Girl)

Dan: I agree with Perez that I could have guessed it was Edie. The face and earrings are beautiful, I'm not keen on the outfit but it is very apropriate. Well done.

60's Barbie
waifish

Jack: OMG! I just wanna get up and draw on myself with highlighter pens. It's like a rainbow cried tears of joy onto her.

Perez: LOVE LOVE LOVE!! The jacket is brilliant, I would have liked for her to have filled it out a little more, but seriously such a great idea and the execution of this is killer!!

Dan: What Perez said!
Mad Men
Nextpingugirl

Jack: BORING! -throws popcorn at-

Dan: Yeah, this was an easy one but at least you tried. :]

Perez: Agreed, it is an easy, boring choice, but I never noticed that we had that dress on Stardoll, and she does look good.

Audrey Hepburn
kieshagiesha, lilsha123, musicqueenxx2

Jack: I'm going to have to pick lilsha123 as my winner, based on the fact that she's the only one with sunglasses AND gloves.

Perez: Well Kiesha is also wearing sunglasses and gloves, but I agree lilsha123 is the best Audrey here by far, she looks very posh and elegant. Keisha's is a good effort though, whereas musicqueen's is just awful and not Holly Golightly in the slightest.

Dan: I agree with Jack, lilsha123 wins this one easily.


PrincessMilly_x, Pikandchew13, JuicyC2890, 90210silverBH

Jack: I can do nothing but yawn at these, they're just...buh. PrincessMilly_x's is cute and she looks like a fun hippy!

Perez: Yeah, the only outfit in this group that wows me is Milly's, she looks awesome, totally trippy dippy 60's beatnik, and I love the dress she chose! I'm confused as to why Pikandchew thought the bandana would compliment her mod ensemble.

Dan: I can't really say more than Perez and Jack have, the only one I liked was Milly's.

Twiggy
Alexapie200

Perez: Alexapie200 did submit an outfit but it was nothing special, however what I did love was the recreation of Twiggy's make-up in this shot! Fun idea, very well executed!

Jack: Kind of shitty considering this is a Best DRESSED List, but I guess I can say it's nice and well executed.

Dan: Awesome make-up. Austin is a real dick head though. (Perez Edit: LULZ!!)

70's
Laurenboy, queencutiesoda, Chace.Clarke, ebonymeme

Jack: Laurenboy went all out with the flares, the afro and the one shoulder top, LOVE IT! Can't Chace.Clarke make a crappy outfit? Just for once, you know, for a change?! queencutiesoda (nice nickname) looks really bright and funky! ebonymeme just looks like a nostalgic stripper.

Dan: I love them all, if anyone has seen the movie The Tripper with Jaime King, Lukas Haas and Jason Mewes wouldnt you say they look like the cast? lol

Perez: These were all so good, I think they're among the best of the entire event! Laurenboy's accessories are so perfect, down to the placement of the bangles and the choice of that belt, the bell-bottoms and platforms, you look awesome! queencutiesoda and the always stunning Chace are the coolest hippies ever, you both nailed this look! I love queen's orange jeans and matching fringe boots, and Chace's bandana and awesome little pseudo-fanny pack, I wanna smoke whatever it is you're smoking! Ebony is the ultimate disco diva, she is absolutely fabulous, I love it! For some reason I'm picturing her in a disco roller rink :D:D

Farrah Fawcett
BASHY77

Jack: What is wrong with her face? I fear she is going to mug me and take my Frosties.

Perez: I don't know, nothing about this outfit is really 70's to me. I mean I get that that's what she was wearing and it was in the 70's and it is Farrah Fawcett, but it's just someone on a skateboard in a hoodie and jeans. Not a costume I would choose for a look that helps define the decade.

Dan: I wouldn't have guessed this was Farrah.

Jackie O
BASHY77

Jack: Nice job, but BASHY77 gave herself much bigger breasts than Jackie deserves credit for.

Perez: Same as with her above outfit, with all the awesome 70's looks to choose from this just seems like a boring choice. But she looks lovely and really went into detail matching it to Jackie.

Dan: The dress looked better on Edie Sedgewick :P

80's
ilovebears9

Jack: Not only is she dressed to perfection looking like Cindy Lauper etc. But motherfucking Boy George is with her too! PERFORMING! I cannot hold back these tears you guys.

Perez: Yeah this is awesome, did you Star Design that Boy George? Holy shnitz!! (Jack Edit: The Boy George poster was a custom design made by UndamyUmbrellla)

Dan: Lame outfit, nice Boy George. If the poster was cropped out I doubt Perez and Jack's comments would be as favorable.

vitalstatistick

Perez: Okay I don't know if she meant to base her look on Carrie Bradshaw's 80's flashback outfit from SATC2 because she didn't say so, but if she didn't I'd be SHOCKED because it's nearly identical! Soooo cute, I'm obsessed with it, one of my favorites for sure!

Jack: Great layering work and I love the grunge/pretty girl clash going on. Wonderful!

Dan: I want to watch Sex and the City 2 now, Fantastic outfit which really feels 80's.

rose8971

Perez: Another favorite, I'm so glad someone did an awesome 80's punk rock look! This totally makes me think of the underground London punk scene, she's a total B.U.M.!

Jack:
Oh wow! LOVE this one! It's just oozing with heavy metal and drugs.

Dan: I love this look, even though it is 80's it would easily transition to present day.

greensoccer121, blueberry-dream, coolperson765, Heather, megamaggie6

Jack: Heather (is that it, just "Heather"?) looks kind of like someone who was meant to make a workout video in the 80's, but slipped up when highlighting her hair so called the whole thing off. The others look very mediocre and kind of nice. (Jack edit: Oops! I meant coolperson765. Heather does actually look like she fell off the back of a truck)

Dan: I like greensoccer121 and blueberry-dreams outfits, they look like they could have been in the gym scene in Flashdance working out with Jennifer Beals and Cynthia Rhodes.

Perez: What's your damage Heather?! No really, what's going on here honey, you look like you fell off the back of a truck. Everyone else looks awesome, blueberry-dream and coolperson765 are totally getting Physical with Olivia Newton-John, greensoccer is super fun and cute, and megamaggie is definitely the popular girl in school, she reminds me of a slightly classier Kelly Bundy! :D:D

TrixieDeeLight, Luxury_Magazine, vampire_, mistydonna

Jack: TrixieDeeLight looks like a total glamour tranny and the rest look strange. If vampire_ didn't have so many accessories, she could have pulled it off, but sadly, she suffers from the Dei-sease, an illness where you cannot help but drown yourself in accessories.

Dan: I agree with Jack, although I love mistydonna's outfit too.

Perez: I love Trixie's outfit! He's totally Studio 54! Luxury also looks super 80's glamtabulous, and I love vampire's take on Madonna, awesome highlights and make-up too! mistydonna looks like she's going to an 80's school dance, I love her! 

90's Grunge
Cachymakers, queencutiesoda, sayanythingelse

Jack: They all look like hipster bedheads! queencutiesoda should really swat away whatever is attacking her face.

Perez: LOL! Yeah the makeshift cigarette is rather odd, but her look overall is great, in fact all the grunge outfits are awesome! Makes me want to go fish my old Nirvana Nevermind CD out from wherever it is..

Dan: They look like the guys Cher disses in Clueless. 'eww get off of me! urgh as IF!' (Perez Edit: Yes!! The stoners hanging out on the grassy knoll! :D:D Speaking of Clueless, I totally expected there to be at least a few preppy 90's looks a la Cher and Dionne =/)

1999-2000
Undamyumbrellla

Jack: Thank you for the collage of noughtie's fashion Kasia, I also really like the outfit!

Perez: OMG I love this, it just really takes me back to my tween obsession with Alyssa Milano and Jennifer Love Hewitt and just loving their pleather pants, cropped tops, and Claire's accessories!

Dan: Very authentic and Buffy :( <3

2000's
sam.miley, Heather, audreyxbeth

Jack: I love how sam.miley brought along a indie date to match his indie self. Heather looks more plain than a drywall. audreyxbeth; forget camel toe, it looks like you smuggled the whole leg down your hotpants!

Perez: Yeah, I love sam.miley's hipster couple, and I feel like it's a definitive style of this decade, whereas there's nothing really special or singularly 2000's about the other outfits.

Dan: sam.miley win, the rest whhhap whamm

1700-1800's
amy_0202, tumblr, Mary - Riiviera, mango-icecream, Holly Lacey

Jack: Jesus Christ, what is going on down here?! I thought the theme was Decades not CENTURIES?!

Perez: Fair point, well made Jack! But still a lovely effort by these ladies, though I will say that mango-icecream does not look French Revolution or Victorian era at all, and for some reason Mary's makes me think more of a Gone With the Wind Southern belle, but as a whole these outfits are beautiful. I really like Amy and Holly's the best.

Dan: All gorgeous even if they did go a bit off with the theme.

Rocky Horror: Best & Worst!

I did things a little differently on this list, I actually chose who I thought was the best for most categories! I don't normally do it that way since there's so many of us that judge and we almost always have different opinions, but for Rocky I couldn't resist!

BEST Dr. Frank-N-Furter
sayanythingelse ~ Almag7607

Dan: I actually expected more Dr. Franks, It's one of the reasons I went as Brittany from Glee as Columbia. I like them both, they are both well made and have enough detail without going over the top, which I think people can easily do with themes. I'd have to say I like sayanythingelse most though, her shoes are killer and it seems to flow more.

Jack: *no comment available due to death by awesomeness* Hehe, no. Almost though! Both outfits are beyond epic. I am obsessed with leather, chains and studs so these outfits are heavenly to me! I can't really choose a winner because I'm in love with both of them.

Perez: I flipped back and forth between these two pictures for like 5 minutes trying to figure out which I liked best and I just couldn't, I had to declare it a draw! You both did an amazing job!!

Rhiann: Wow, I love them both! Call Guinness World Records because I think that might be a first. I don't think anyone could have done a better job!

ellie8971

Dan: Its cute enough, it's not something that I'll look back on and admire but I like how she went for a different look instead of the leather jacket, classic Frank.

Jack: It's okay, but she didn't really nail it. It's kind of bland and it just doesn't excite me.

Rhiann: I like that she went for something different, but at the moment it looks a little 'Sunday school'. It could do with being dragged up a little bit more. Don't be afraid to take a bit of artistic license!

Perez: I don't know yal, I'm gonna have to be odd man out on this one because I really like it! I love how she was able to recreate the look just using what she already had, and I LOVE her make-up! Great job girl!

 Sarahbear123

Perez: I forgot to upload this one before everyone else started commenting so unfortunately the other judges didn't get to see it, but I think it goes without saying that it's f*cking awesome!! Could this BE anymore perfect?!! NO! It could NOT! Sarah, you made this outfit your b*tch. I really don't know how else to put it.

Misc. Frank-N-Furters 
BASHY77, Kaami1990, Holly Lacey., rose8971

Dan: They all just look like gothic prostitutes or lesbian vampires to me, unless any of them were themed on something but they didn't think to mention it?

Jack: Oh good lord. Listen you guys, I'm sorry you were rejected by the emo lesbian porn industry, but you shouldn't take it out on us.

Rhiann: None of you have seen the film, have you? That's cool, but a little more effort than just putting on black underwear and red lipstick would have been good. Holly Lacey, I have no idea what's going on with the mullet dress.

Perez: BASHY's is actually really nicely detailed, that top is perfect for Frank-N-Furter's corset, I love that she included the tattoo, and she even has a makeshift garter belt on that matches his! She's either seen the movie or she really did her research, she did an awesome job!! Kaami's is okay, not very detailed but still a good match, and I thought rose's was a cute interpretation too. Holly said she was going for the modern, female version of Frank-N-Furter. Since he's a transvestite, I'd say he's already the "female" version of himself lol! There's nothing modern about it either.

BEST Columbia
sko1234

Perez: She really stood out to me as the best Columbia, I absolutely love the smirk, the make-up, the hairstyle, I think she designed the best shorts, and just her whole overall vibe is very cool, sinister but fun, which is Columbia in a nutshell!

Dan: Perfect classic Columbia.

Jack: Superb! Columbia was a popular choice and she really got every detail next-to-perfect, especially the shorts and the jacket!

Rhiann: Nailed it! I don't know if her doll always has that expression or it's part of the costume but it goes so well. No improvements, definitely the best in a big, big category.

amy_0202, dream.on, kitkat91011, megamaggie6, waifish

Dan: I can't pick fault with anyone, that star design jacket was perfect for Columbia and you all put a lot of effort in making the shorts and following the Columbia look, I like amy_0202's jacket the most, it seems to sparkle a bit more, dream.on has the best shorts and I think waifish has the best crazy make up, so you all did great, just in different ways.

Perez: Yeah I agree with Dan, I liked different things about different outfits that I felt stood out as the best. Amy sent me a really nice graphic where you can see how great her make-up is, and I love how she added a hoodie underneath to make her sleeves longer! It looks so seamless! You're right Dan, she definitely added a little something to the design to get it to sparkle more, awesome job!! dream.on has the perfect sneer and I love how she attempted the top hat, kitkat found the perfect shoes for Columbias tap shoes and I liked her Star Designed corset t-shirt, megamaggie6 looks pretty good overall, and I agree that waifish has the best make-up plus I love how she improvised the socks!

Jack: Some of them look a little creepy and weird, but I guess most of them look somewhat like Columbia.

Rhiann: I went to write 'They all look the same!' until I realised what this list was. What can I say, I'm naturally blonde. Anyway, they aren't horrible but they just don't stand out. Maybe if less people came as Columbia we'd be making more of a big deal.

Glee's Columbia
SaltyDan

Perez: LOVE!! Brittany was an awesome Columbia on Glee! Great minds think alike, I almost came as Magentified Quinn! (before I realized everyone else was coming as Magenta and changed my mind lol) This was brilliant, and your face and make-up were perfect!

Misc. Columbias
ashy_loves_you, Kaami1990, Laurenhorse

Jack: Most of them look like overly classy Moulin Rouge strippers. Dan's is the only one that makes sense.

Rhiann: I get that Dan came as the Columbia from Glee, but where are the others from? I can't really judge if they did a good job recreating it or not, but hey, they look cute.

Dan: Yay! I'm glad you heard I was Brittany from Glee as Columbia, I figured there would be a lot of the sequin jacket version so I thought I would go in a different direction, I like Kaamii's sparkley top, if she had gotten herself a golden jacket and some more accurate shorts I think she could have been the best Columbia of the night.

Perez: Ashy looks gorgeous, it is a Moulin Rouge Columbia but I could still see the character wearing it (albeit in an alternate, very French universe) so it works for me, and his make-up is great! Kaami is actually just Columbia in the scene with Eddie [singing "Hot Patootie, Bless My Soul (I Really Love That Rock 'n' Roll)"] where she isn't wearing her jacket and hat, and her tank top is definitely the best. Had she worn the spiked choker and had better shorts hers would have been one of my favorites. I'm really not crazy about Laurenhorse's, what is with that random piece of hair clipped to your head?

BEST Magenta
-LimitedEdition

Perez: I was back and forth between -LimitedEdition and blueberry-dream for a long time, and in the end I had to give it to Limited because her costume and face are the best overall for me. I wish she had gotten the hair right because it's such a major factor in the look, I mean the big frizzy hair IS Magenta, but this outfit cannot be ignored it's perfect and gorgeous. I love how she made her apron, and her face is creepy but still sexy which is very much in keeping with the character.

blueberry-dream, Mary - Riiviera, aisjhfiud

Dan: I like them all but none of them quite grab my attention, sorry. Limited-Edition has the best apron though.

Jack: All four of them did a really nice job. They all layered the skirts (or shorts/tablecloths) nicely. I just wish someone would have gone full on creepy Magenta with make up.

Rhiann: Blueberry is my favourite here because she matched Magenta so perfectly, but there's still no fault with the rest of them. Limited Edition has the prettiest outfit (where's the red hair, girl?) aisjhfiud did a great job remaking the apron. Mary, are those shorts on the front of your dress?

Perez: Like I said before, blueberry-dream is a very close second for Best Magenta! I also liked aisjhfiud's, her face is perfect and the layering of the skirts was very smart and creative. I loved Mary's, it's weird because I was going to wear almost the same exact thing when I was planning on coming as the Glee version of Magenta. I'm not sure if that's what Mary was going for but she nailed it! 

Misc. Magentas
A_True_Beauty, Cheekychops1234, tumblr, JuicyC2890

Jack: They all either look too risque or too boring, nothing special here from any of these guys. A_True_Beauty's is the best and most accurate.

Rhiann: Oh god, there's more. It's a tie between Juicy and Cheeky (insert ass-related joke here) for this one - Juicy's apron is great, it looks like a hipster remake of Rocky Horror, and I love that Cheeky included a feather duster. Accessorize!

Dan: I agree with Rhiann, I like the duster, but that's about it, the first lot were better and I didn't really find them very interesting.

Perez: None of these really caught my eye, though I do agree with everything Rhiann just said. Also, what's up with tumblr's hat? She had it on last week as Cruella as well, is this a Linda/Katy Perry/scarf situation where she literally can't remove it from her doll??

BEST Janet
lilsha123

Dan: It's cute and I like the hat and hair but the rest is not accurate, I appreciate this must have taken some cash to create but the dress is wrong...wrong color, wrong jacket, wrong bag. Yeah it's a nice outfit but it's not Janet.

Jack: YAY for Janet! I can imagine it being difficult to make a Janet outfit, because she doesn't really wear anything amazing throughout the movie (except from in this scene). If it were me, I would have used a different bag and possibly given myself a bouquet.

Rhiann: ...And now I have the song in my head. Janet doesn't really wear that much during the rest of the film, but she did a great job recreating this - especially the hair! I just think it would have been better if the Stardesign t-shirt didnt have the big weird buttons on the front. 

Perez: lilsha is actually a combination of wedding Janet, whose dress suit does look kind of purple in some pictures, and Janet when she arrives at Frank-N-Furter's castle (in this picture you can really see all the details she attempted). It's not a perfect Janet, but it's my favorite and I love it!

Underwear Janet
Kaami1990

Perez: Slut!

Dan: I guess I'm the only one who kinda likes it? Kaamii came as Columbia too and I liked hers, This is undoubtedly an easy choice but nobody else thought of it and I think it was a kinda genius to be able to make an outfit with only using two items of clothing! (Perez Edit: I agree, I liked it too, I just couldn't resist shouting slut at her! :D:D)

Jack: This outfit is so easy to make and she still didn't even get it to look similar.

Rhiann: That's just lazy.

Misc. Janets
Diva6723 ~ aisjhfiud ~ liajm

Perez: liajm was my second place choice for best Janet, except for the yellow barrette in her hair which I found so distracting for some reason! Just the pink one would have been perfect. Both Diva and aisjhfiud look great though.

Dan: I like aisjhfiud the most, she really went into detail with the hair clip and I think her outfit is the most accurate. Liajm looks like a teenage girl trying to get into a wine bar and Diva looks like a teacher.

Jack: I suppose they are kind of cute, but if you put them in front of me and asked me who they were, I wouldn't be able to tell.

Rhiann: Ooh, pretty! I take it they are all from the wedding scene? Nice...I can't really say more than that. I would be so bad on Fashion Police.

Brad
Laurenhorse

Perez: Asshole!

Dan: I like it, but I don't love it. I wish I had gone as Brad.

Jack: I appreciate that it would be tricky to make a Brad if your doll was and had always been female, but c'mon, Brad is a great and important character, this outfit disappoints me.

Rhiann: Haha, Lauren managed to make Brad look kinda hot! I love that she fully committed and actually changed genders for this. That's the Rocky Horror spirit!

BEST (& worst) Riff Raff
devie44, freeduck_ ~ laurenboy

Jack: devie44 looks like a weird, desperate mess, what is going on there? I did rush my Riff Raff so it didn't turn out as good as I hoped. Someone please give laurenboy a pair of tweezers.

Rhiann: I always wondered why Stardoll gave us that awful hair, and now we know why. They know us so well. The first two are awesome, I love that devie44 managed to make Riff Raff look really gaunt and creepy. Although, lets be honest, it's not hard! I love they all have hunchbacks too, I totally would have forgotten about that. Laurenboy, I love you've got into the gender-bending spirit, but Riff Raff doesn't wear a womens shirt. Especially one with apple-shaped buttons.

Perez: I wish I could put devie's face (great job on the make-up!) on Jack's body! That would have been my perfect Riff Raff! :D:D But dear god laurenboy, that's just awful. Why the caterpillar eyebrows, why?!

Dan: Jack wins by miles, his is the only one that looks like it had any effort behind it.

BEST Eddie
Welsh_witch
"I really don't get enough chances to dress up as Meatloaf."
 
Jack: Perfection! This is a great Eddie and I don't think I could have reached such levels of greatness if I tried. Everything is SPOT ON.

Rhiann: Quote says it all. I'm thinking Spice Girls party next, so I can come as Meatloaf the Bus Driver?

Perez: Just another episode of Rhiann Being Awesome And Making Perez Want To Kiss Her À La Sexual Harassment Lawsuit, that's all. Thank god someone came as Eddie!

Rocky
PerezStarGossip ~ Chace.Clarke

Perez: I've gotta give it to Chace, he had zero Stardollars to his name but did that stop him? Hellz no, gurlfriend pulled a Scarlett O'Hara, ripped down the curtains and made himself some shorts damnit! I was going for a cross between female Rocky and an African White Space Christ.

Jack: This best dressed list has had more sex changes than mizzmileycyrus9. Females being male character, males being female characters etc. really capturing the true essence of TRHPS! Chace did a wonderful job, creative idea with the shorts! Perez looks like she literally stole the actual boots from Rocky, they're like, identical! (Perez Edit: Those boots took FOREVER, by the time I was done I could barely stand to look at them! :D:D)

Rhiann: Perez, those things go together so well! I'm considering adopting it for an everyday style. Chace did a good job considering Stardoll's limited how buff our dolls can be, but all I can think is how uncomfortable those shorts look.

The Transylvanians
TrixieDeeLight ~ To_Royal

Jack: I think for once, Dei didn't over do it. She obviously didn't abandon her layering ways, but this time she didn't make it look like she was suffocating in heaps of jewellery and/or clothing. Blake also looks lovely and much like a Transylvanian!

Rhiann: Dei wins! But Trixie looks great too. The Transylvanians were always the creepiest thing about this film to me, so I'll just skip ahead.

Perez: I can't even tell you how much I love these outfits! I'm obsessed with them both, they're two of my absolute favorites of the night, I wasn't expecting anyone to attempt the Transylvanians so it's that much more awesome to me.

Misc.
musicqueenxx2, Bonekinha03, Heather

Jack: Who are these people? What even...

Rhiann: They all seem to have come as the same person, but I have no idea who. Maybe it's just me being thick. While we're at the end of this list, where were all the Bad Ass Space Alien Riff Raffs and Magentas? I tried to do that costume but gave up because I had no dollar. (Perez Edit: I thought about it too, but I couldn't find that Bride of Frankenstein wig in the Star Bazaar! =/)

Perez: I like them, I see they were trying to go with the theme but still do their own thing. musicqueen's is my favorite of the three, that dress is awesome!

This week's theme will be up tonight!
