Victoria Beckham has reportedly been approached by Fox to host a fashion reality TV series called Fashion Nightmares.

The show would be in the same format as Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, with cameras following Posh as she travels around America finding ensembly-challenged people and working with them on a fashion makeover. A source reveals, "They want her to visit some boutiques and beauty pageants in real backwater towns and to try to whip them into chic shape." Sounds maja!

Fab Flash: Victoria Beckham Tops Worst-Dressed List in 2007

FabSugar — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 12:30:22 -0800

Since 1960, Mr. Blackwell has established himself as a celebrity-style critic by annually listing off his top ten worst-dressed women.

Today, he released his 48th Annual Worst-Dressed Women List, with the note: "For those of you who were expecting to see Britney's name adorn the 2007 list, I felt that it was inappropriate at this time to make comment, when her personal life is in such upheaval. I hope 2008 is a better year for her."

And so, without further ado, Mr. Blackwell's top three - do you agree?

1. Victoria Beckham: "Forget the fashion spice - wearing a skirt would suffice! In one skinny-mini monstrosity after another, pouty posh can really wreck-em."

2. Amy Winehouse: "Exploding beehives above . . . tacky polka-dots below . . . she's part '50s car-hop horror."

3. Mary-Kate Olsen: "YIKES! In layers of cut-rate kitsch, Mary-Kate's look is hard to explain. . . . she resembles a tattered toothpick-trapped in a hurricane!"

To see the rest of his picks, including who he calls "a global fashion curse," just read more

4. Fergie: "Another style-free 'Fergie' in fashion's hall of shame? Yes, when it comes to couture chaos, guess it's all in a name!"

5. Kelly Clarkson: "Her heavenly voice soars above the rest. . . but those belly-baring bombs are hellish at best! She may be the queen of 'Pro-Active' - but that wardrobe looks downright radioactive!"

6. Eva Green: "Stuck in neon nightmares not fit for the sane. Fashion this loud could give Bond a migraine! A profusion of confusion from toes to nose!"

7. Avril Lavigne: "Gothic makeup courtesy the mad spatula-Fashions provided by. . . .The house of Dracula!"

8. Jessica Simpson: "Forget the Cowboys. In prom queen screams, can it get any worse? She's a global fashion curse!"

9. Lindsay Lohan: "Lindsay the fashion frenzy strikes again! Lohan takes fashion to a new low."

10. Alison Arngrim: "Little Nellie of the prairie, looks like a 1940s fashion editor for the Farmer's Almanac."

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Brian Reyes

FabSugar — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 08:30:22 -0800

It's safe to say that Brian Reyes' recurring fashion week nightmares didn't come to fruition - in fact, his show proceeded quite smoothly. Reyes, who started out under Oscar de la Renta's wing, is honing his name as designer to the sleek and chic.

Taffeta trenches, skirts, and dresses were patterned after Reyes' inspiration: the curving lines of topographical maps. Funky jewelry adorned necks, heads, and ears, and earth tones ruled the color scheme, aside from a cameo of fuchsia or cerulean.

The label's strength always lies in the dresses, and in this collection, there were plenty to choose from. That flaked silver metallic number? Definitely less like a nightmare, more like a dream.

How Would YOU Wear It? Leelee Sobieski

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 02:00:22 -0800

Orange is a hot color, but too much of anything can be overkill. Actress Leelee Sobieski has taken the concept of matching a bit too far. I don't mind individual pieces in her ensemble, but all together, it's a fashion editor's worst nightmare.

Leelee should have definitely left the orange tights for Halloween. There's still too much matching so I'd keep the jacket and skirt and wear a white blouse instead. Those jazz-inspired shoes are too old lady; I say ditch them for something more modern.

How would YOU wear it?
