Fashion Critic Slams Heidi Montag's Clothing Line
Some of you jumped all over me the other day for making fun of The Hills' Heidi Montag and the debut of her clothing line, Heidiwood, saying that I should let her "follow her dream" and crap like that. But, here's the thing. If designing trampy clothes was Heidi's career aspiration, why did she drop out of fashion school within the first week to become a club promoter?
Anyway, New York Magazine's fashion critics actually went and tried on some of articles in the Heidiwood line and they seem to think that Heidi missed all the "stay in school" messages growing up. In a nutshell, they said Heidi's clothes are made like crap -- and though they may be cheap (nothing is over $60), they aren't even worth that much. On top of that, the magazine's brave ladies said they would basically be mistaken for streetwalkers if they wore any of the items outside.
"No self-respecting grown woman should allow herself to be seen in these garments. Only two of the twelve items have sleeves, and just one — a pair of jeans — extends past mid-thigh. In fact, only one other thing extends past the upper thigh: a dress that would have been mildly acceptable had it not been made from the kind of cotton you usually only see on Target’s discount panties. At one point, we faced each other: One of us wore black short-shorts with a one-inch inseam (half a thumb, for real) and a zebra-striped tank with a faux-chiffon back bow; the other, a white-denim, butt-cleavage-baring skirt with a backless teal top that's baggy in the bust and tight at the gut — perfect if you haven't eaten pasta in ten years and have ginormous implants (sound familiar?). The stuff was the complete opposite of flattering. We looked like rejects from Rock of Love II with Bret Michaels; stick us on the hood of a car and Whitesnake would've appeared, guitars in hand."
That's pretty hilarious. Can I continue to make fun of her now?

YES! Please continue to make fun of her and better yet MAKE HER GO AWAY!
Sure...I must say I wouldn't be caught wearing something like that. It looks hot on her, but seriously, where would she wear that?
I think we have to take into account how she dresses. Clearly, any clothing line by her would be the farthest thing from conservative. I too thought she had decided on a career in event planning but obviously she jumped on the clothing line bandwagon because everyone else has. It's really unfortunate because I think she would have made a pretty good event planner. It's a hard industry to break into and she already had a really good start.
I "love" that outfit, and don't see a thing wrong with it...It is perfect "Beachwear" for the evening...Love it!!!
it might be good for a walk on the beach but walk on a street and they'll call you a hooker...
Follow her dreams, whatever. She's a celebutant with no education, no talent, and a lot of money. She should just go live off her money and quit torturing the rest of us with her ideas about clothes and singing *cringes*. Obviously, I'm all for making fun of her. I'm a designer too (costume, not clothing...yet), and the only wear I can think of that her line would be good for would be the show "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas."
Maybe, I was in that show and we still wore things that covered our assets quite a bit more.
Her clothes are made for a very, very limited group of people and if they are not made well (i.e., cheap fabric or not cut right) -- the basic fundamental of dressing -- then there's nothing to distinguish her line from any of the other clothing that you might find at Target, Walmart or K-Mart. At least at those stores, you are not paying $60+ for her name.
It looks like a line of tramp clothes. That's exactly what I expected from her.
Heidiwood is oh so wrong on so many levels. If you were to walk to a club with those clothes on, you'd have a police office arresting you for prostitution in a minute.
As for the cheap prices, you get what you paid for, plus this way with her clothes, not only are the clothes a cheap quality, you look cheap in them. A two for one special.
One of my boobs wouldn't fit in that top, and those short shorts would become a g-string in an instant on me.
This clothing line is perfect for girls who love to dance in front of the mirrow with no one watching, pretending your some singer. God forbid your father caught you with it on - my father would give me such an a** whooping i wouldn't be able to sit on it for a week!
she is horrible. i cant think of anyone that actually takes this girl serious. what a tramp! i wish she and her snake-of-a-boyfriend would crawl back under the rock they came from!
