Flora Kung

Flora Kung! To be honest, I don't have much of a response to Flora Kung's clothes--they're simply not my thing. But I kind of love her models, all of whom look bleary-eyed and rumpled and blowsy, like they had far too much fun the night before stumbling into the studio to pose for a few photos. 

I am not very Flora Kung, but I appreciate those who are.

Bill Blass

"What I like and don't like so much in Bill Blass."

My likes.

He designs a lot of gorgeous evening gowns.

My dislikes.

He's so damn judgmental.

Jag

Utterly terrifying (which I presume was the intention), amplified by the way my half-assed scanning job has weirdly shortened her torso. 

Hard to tell much about the clothes, really, but the claws are a pretty awesome touch.

Charlie by Revlon

We've got a Charlie Girl!

If you can get past the condescension inherent in referring to grown-ass women as "girls", there's much to appreciate about Revlon's entire long-running feminist-friendly Charlie Girl campaign. A lot of words have been written already on the subject of Charlie Girls, so instead of adding too many more of my own, I'm going to point you in the direction of this brainy paper from Providence College: "A Fragrance to Empower Women: The History of “Charlie.”

Also, I really like her necktie. It's snazzy.

Jovan Florals

Jovan, I like the way your mind works.

Jhane Barnes

Another awesome short haircut. 

I don't love the baggy shapelessness of the suit, but the aggressive masculinity of it contrasts beautifully with her gorgeous face and hair, and it goes well with the gigantic earrings (are those stylized anarchy symbols, or upside-down Vuarnet logos? This was 1985, so, y'know, either would've been a perfectly acceptable political statement).

Hanes

Pop quiz:

Which accomplishment should bring this lady more of a sense of pride?:

a) Her horse just won this GINORMOUS GOLDEN TROPHY.
b) Some dude thinks her legs look nice in pantyhose.
