Cheap Chic Stylist Advice: Is fast fashion the end of good taste?

Sometimes less is not more when it comes to a price tag. As I'm sitting outside on what is a very warm day, all I can see is a sea of fashionista fiascos: Ill-fitting maxi dresses that can passoff as nightgowns, garish prints, short shorts and rompers on girls both too old and too out of shape to publicly prance around with their rears hanging out, jersey body-con dresses clinging in a way that even the Shore-ettes would think was cheesy, pastel sheers that look like a shower curtain from Great Aunt Tilly's trailer, and the de rigueur touch of polyester neon (sorry, you shouldn't wear fabric that looks like it would smell!).Eeeecccch.

After several successful seasons collaborating with Uniqlo, Jil Sander's +J collection for the Japanese fast fashion giant is unfortunately ending this season. Word is that a Uniqlo collabo with Undercover is up next, which of course we can't wait to get our hands on (we love Undercover), however, we've also been diehard fans of the +J range for its minimal techno separates that harkened back to Jil's own days at her eponymous label. And while her namesake label is thriving in the hands of Raf Simons, Jil's return on the scene with Uniqlo produced what we consider to be one of the greatest collaborations of all time.
