Most Questionable Model Casting - Vogue
Karlie Kloss is not a model that would normally be a question, so good is she at her job, but she starred in a huge story about China, wearing a black wig, as though made up to be Asian. Would this not have been a wonderful opportunity for a rising Asian face? Also, was dressing her in Miu Miu and thrusting her into a factory with a bunch of young female workers the best choice?
Hottest Grandma - W
This editorial depicts Amber Valletta aging from hot young thing to hot old thing. It's a refreshing change from seeing the same retouching on the same sorts of skinny teenagers over and over again.

Best Diva Portrait - Björk in Dazed & Confused
The nice thing about Björk is she just puts her stuff out there, and lets it be. She doesn't write magazine columns about it or try to describe endlessly why she exists. She just exists and does neat things like this.

Best Designer Portrait - Karl Lagerfeld in Harper's Bazaar
He needs to do this in a runway show. It's not like Chanel wouldn't pay for the gear required to dangle people from the ceiling, or, if Karl is actually throwing her up here, for Karl's personal Dancing With the Stars lessons.

Best No-Makeup Editorial - W
Photographing models with no makeup and retouching has been done many times by fashion magazines. But usually the subjects end up looking as though they are wearing makeup and have been retouched. This W spread was a well-done exception.

Best Frezona Portrait - British Vogue
Rumored model lovers Arizona Muse and Freja Beha apparently have the exact same nun outfits. Uncanny!

Ballsiest Crotch Shot - BlackBook
And that about fills BlackBook's dingy-erotic-basement-themed editorial quota for the year.

Best Post-Apocalyptic Greek Goddess Editorial - Fashion
A collision of concepts in a cloud of what is evidently some really pleasurable gas.

Best Zoolander Facial Expressions - Out
Maybe the pursed lips are an automatic response to the tightness of the turtlenecks.

Best Anna Dello Russo Impression - InStyle
This is the same Fausto Puglisi dress that ADR has in
at least three colors. And you know in a season or two ADR will take her street-style outfits to the next level by showing up to Fashion Week with live animals. Really, it's a wonder no one's ridden up to a show on a white horse or Great Dane yet.

Best Metal Glove - Daphne Guinness in W
Also, best no cellulite. Damn, Daphne.

Most Unfair Designer/Muse Editorial - Vanity Fair
You can't really put anyone next to Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci while he's cupping a see-through couture ballgown-clad Carine Roitfeld and expect them to compete. Even designers as wildly acclaimed as Proenza Schouler.

Best Texture - Dazed & Confused
She looks like a big gay cauliflower.

Best Desert Editorial - Teen Vogue
This is how you liven up the desert concept. Get the models dirty and don't make them look pretty.

Weirdest Concept - Allure
Combining girl-on-girl eroticism with dental hygiene, makeup, and designer hats. In other words, the music-video concept Britney Spears should have jumped on ages ago.

Best Case Against Gorilla Arms - British Vogue
Gorilla arms have been the runway trend that won't die the past couple of fall seasons. And with each hairy arm, you have to wonder who has been thinking, What I really need this winter is fur! But only for my arms!

Best Way to Look Fat - British Vogue
Just what you want out of your winter coat, right?

Best Metallic Overalls - Elle
Two pairs in one spread. Impressive.

Worst Leather Overalls - Harper's Bazaar
If you ever wanted a very expensive, non-mom-jean way to give yourself a FUPA, here you go.

Best Pantsless Murse Plug - Out
If only he were holding his pants over his shoulder instead of a bag.

Worst Men's Fashion Trend - GQ
Brown suits are the new thing in menswear that the industry is trying to make happen. And yet brown suits just seem like a really quick way to make a man not look hot.
