mordant exegesis: The Trainwreck Named Yoyo's dress

The Trainwreck Named Yoyo's dress



Trust me, my head is hurting as much as yours. Last I checked, Yoyo and Ekin weren't even confirmed to be dating yet, so I'm 90% sure she cant be pregnant. Thanksgiving isn't even celebrated in HK, and if it were, it's not the right date. And I'm sure that Myolie got the role for the terror that is TVB's Bridget Jones remake. So what the hell is that train wreck that looks like she broke into Queen Latifah's wardrobe circa 'Bringing Down the House'?

Yoyo looks absolutely glowing, which is why it's more of a shame that she chose this ensemble. I don't even know where to start with it: the shapelessness? The colour that makes her look much older? The sleeves? The neck? God, the necklace, that whichever company sponsored is probably regretting? The leather strap watch? Or the hair, which looks like a fried birds nest?

Or maybe I'll just leave this review here, because I don't know how to write anything that could vaguely justify this outfit. Maybe...maybe, by a far, far fetch of imagination, the outfit would look a bit better with a waist-belt that has saved many other bags-as-dresses costumes. Maybe. But then maybe I just really want to believe that no one would make something this atrocious. Based on some other outfits HK celebs have worn though, I'm not putting any money on it.
