Fashion Is Fun

Stylista: Exactly What We Thought

stylista 1.jpgThe first promo images from Stylista (formerly the same name as us) are out and, obviously, nobody’s surprised.


Looks like the show is going to be as Tyrrific as well all feared and hoped.

The only thing faker than those “contestants” is the office this was shot in - believe us, readers, that is not ELLE.

Can’t wait to see who gets fired over bringing Anne Slowey the wrong lunch.

Oh wait, we totally can.

it may be a little harsh, but what are they all wearing??? It looks like a costume designer threw up all over the contestants. I think there's a mary poppins chimney sweeper in the red and black on the left.

According to the Reuters article, one of the prizes is "one-year paid lease on an apartment in Manhattan."

Now THAT is a prize worth competing for (I'm assuming it's an apartment in one of these generic new "luxury" developments with which the show can be corporate partners and do promotions). I'd totally live in one for a year for FREE.

the only thing i like about that image is the SS08 marc by marc dress...

the rest looks pathetic and insanely staged. is the chubby girl seriously wearing a pillbox hat?

The guy on the left in the hat looks HOT ! ! ! ! I'm not sure if ELLE would enjoy the outfit so much though!

I'm eager to see the fake set...The real ELLE offices are shamefully ugly.

OMG those clips are hilarious. As someone who aspires to work at a magazine when I get out of college, I would not be caught dead on this show.

They probably filmed it in the Mode office set while Ugly Betty was off because of the writer's strike ;)

haha. i used to intern at elle and their offices are a mess, stained ugly carpeting, dirty scuffed up walls...gross. no one's office, no matter who you are there looks any better. just the view does.

What a busted looking bunch.

and I can just anticipate telling people that I want to work at a magazine and hearing "Oh, like on stylista?" I better start strengthening my gag reflex in anticipation.

I was totally NOT going to watch this show... but judging from these pics, it looks like it will be one of those "it's so bad, it's good" things. I'm all in.

I think the show looks great.
It's about time we had something OTHER than ANTM!
However, contrary to the previous comments, the guy in the black and red (or should I say black and pink, as the socks are clearly blue and pink) seems to have the most eclectic dress sense of them all.
It's nice to see someone in fashion that is actually willing to push the boundaries of the norm. Everyone else's dress sense is so boring, aside from the girl with that hat, which clearly looks ridiculous.
Go Chimney Sweep! What a cutie!

Oh my gosh. I honestly cant believe they picked the girl furthest on the left. she honestly has no sense of "style" and no real sense of self. during the interview the only thing she talked about was how "fuckable" she was. There were so many other knowledgeable, talented, driven individuals. She... IS NOT ONE.

hollywood... i swear, give a chance to people WHO DESERVE IT!
