Julian Ayrs 3rd Annual Best/Worst Dressed...Men & Women on alert!

 

Oh, I can't believe it is just about that time again!

As December rolls around, I will start compiling my Best & Worst Dressed lists - with a focus on the Men & Women who sashay into the sizzling glare of the daily spotlight in glitzy Film & TV Entertainment circles, the staid Political arena, provocative Music industry - you name it!

Uh-huh!

I will be scouring the red carpet, perusing the supermarket tabloids - and surreptiously taking an up-close gander at publicity stills caught on the fly by the ravenous International paparazzi - in a bold-faced searing effort to crown the chic fashionistas - and likewise - banish the stylish flops who turned-out pathetically (as ugly swans) this past year!

If you recall - last December - Lady GaGa garnered her own special category:

Best-Dressed / Worst-Dressed Pop Diva

Unfortunately, there is no category for "meat" this year, so the Pop Temptress may be SOL!

Meanwhile, celebrities like - Cher, Emma Thompson and Barbra Streisand - may wash out once again once I start to rustle up the run-down for the worst-dressed of 2010.

A posse of dudes held up well under close scrutiny the last time out - Blair Underwood (actor), Brian Williams (TV news anchor), and President Barack Obama - to name a few.

At a screening the other evening - a fan of Johnny Mathis - put in a plug for the crooner with the golden pipes who still has the uncanny ability to make the ladies (and dudes) swoon!

"He's 75 years old, but he still looks sharp in his turtle necks, and classy suits," she gushed!

Uh-huh!

We'll see, dahlink!

If you have any suggestions, do pass 'em along, eh?

The fashion appraisal - with a nod to Mr. Blackwell - is due out on New Year's Eve.

Best a** of 2010?

Mr. Blackwell...10 worst-best list to unveil January 1st!

Queen of tacky exposed...


A few days ago, after I posted a piece on fashion tips, a blogger on the Internet speculated that just maybe I was going to follow in Mr. Blackwell's jaded couture footsteps.

Well, those are tough heels to fill!

The man was a whiz at caustic one-line jabs capable of sending any dour old puss into gales of laughter.

Let's face it, Mr. Blackwell artfully crafted exacting quips into a unique form of high-fashion Haiku - the effects of which - are still felt long after the style maven passed away into that great fashion house in the sky.

After reflecting upon the matter a tad - and encountering a handful of fashion disasters on the red carpet at the AFI Fest this past week in Tinsel Town - I've hastened to forge ahead and throw together a fashion victim list to premiere on January 1st (2009).

So - strutting starlets, Hollywood wannabees, and aging Divas - be forewarned.


Between now and then, I'll be scouring the Internet, gossip rags, and red carpets for candidates worthy of Fashion Icon Status - of the negative ilk - for my 1st Worst-Dressed list.






I may even saunter into the Villa or Koi after-hours to catch a disheveled celebrity or two in their natural habitat letting it all hang out!


At this juncture - the K-Mart bargain basement patterned sheet that actress Emma Thompson wrapped around her pudgy silhouette for the premiere of the new feature - "Last Chance Harvey" - is a prime contender for a sizzling hot spot front-row-and-center!

In addition to that tacky misstep, a fashion burp worn by a Hollywood cutie who appears as a regular on a National TV Drama, is running a close second right about now.

Of course, there will be a top 10 best-dressed list; but frankly, I expect it will not garner the ecstatic attention the other end of the spectrum will attract, if only for amusement's sake.

Need I say more, Cher?
