Dear All:
Welcome to the 43th ANNUAL merry-go-round of fashion
mayhem.
THE WORST DRESS WOMEN
LIST: The eclectic bunch who hit the stylistic
skids this year are an especially grim-to-gaudy group.
Despite the encouraging fact that so many film sirens
blossomed into fabulous fashion-plates in 2002, the
music biz’s style-challenged songbirds overcompensated
in the Cavalcade of Kitsch.
The final results of the year’s crop of couture
casualties include a wider-than-usual range of
culprits from singers to royalty, to a minority of
actresses, a novelist, and (gasp) a designer.
Fashion flip-flopped all over the place in 2002:
Halle Berry soared, Julianne Moore’s
luminescent look took flight and Nicole Kidman
wowed in a series of high-heeled "Lady in Black"
eye-poppers.
Other elegant icons took a momentary fall, witness
Gwyneth Paltrow’s Gothic Horror at the Oscars.
What was she thinking? Britney Spears bored,
Stella McCartney’s "designs" snored . . . and, on
a nifty note, the razzle-dazzle of those "Chicago"
gals roared.
Here’s hoping 2003 is filled with beauty and elegance
for fashion devotees everywhere. After all, in this
kaleidoscopic world we live in, dressing well
really is the best revenge!
Love
Mr. Blackwell

The Fashion Accident You Can’t Help Watching…
Mr. Blackwell’s 43rd
Annual Best & Worst Dressed List
We don’t like to
point fingers and
name names. Our
mother told us it was rude.
We even try not to be mean-spirited- it’s just not
our policy.
Yet sometimes, a jolt of bitchiness and
some
eye rolling takes the edge off the day. We may not
agree with Mr. Blackwell's observations, but
for the sake of
what the heck, here goes it… Mr.
Blackwell's 43rd Annual Best & Worst Dressed List
FABULOUS FASHION
INDEPENDENTS FOR 2002
Reese Witherspoon, Debra Messing, Halle Berry,
Catherine Zeta-Jones, Oprah Winfrey, Princess Firal of
Jordan, Renee Zellwegger, Kate Winslett, Nicole
Kidman, Jennifer Aniston.
WORST
DRESSED LIST FOR 2002
10. Pink: "Out of the blue, pops Pink, and I’m
seeing red! Cartoon-colored proof that any fashion
sanity for her is really dead!"
9. Christina Aguilera: "Her barely-there bimbo
bombs wouldn’t cover a gnat . . . let’s just call her
the "Worst Undressed" and leave it at that!"
8. Meg Ryan: "A total fashion wreck . . .
Ryan’s all chills and no thrills . . . looks like a
Swap-Meet Fashion Queen in Beverly Hills!"
7. Donatella Versace: "Time to toss the
peroxide once and for all . . . She resembles a
flash-fried Venus, stuck in a Miami Strip Mall!"
6. Anne Rice: "Her musty, dusty Mausoleum-Wear
redefines ‘Queen of the Batcaves.’ Anne looks like a
cross between Queen Victoria and the Vampire Lestat!"
5. Princess Anne: "Her Royal Dowager Drag is
dreary, drab and dour . . . wake up Anne, you’re
getting worse by the hour!"
4. Cameron Diaz: "Looks like she was dressed by
a color-blind circus clown . . . When it comes to
fashion, it’s chaos when Cameron’s back in town!"
3. Shakira: "Overwrought and underdressed, she
always strikes a familiar pose . . . somebody should
tell her those are probably Madonna’s old clothes!"
2. Kelly Osbourne: "A fright-wigged Baby Doll,
stuck in a goth prom gown . . . now we know what
happened to Ozzy’s hand-me-downs!"
and...
1. Anna Nicole Smith: "Anna’s fashion
follies are the worst of the year . . . don’t bother
with a new designer Anna, just hire a structural
engineer!"
