Frock Horror of the Week: The leopard/zebra ensemble from Salvatore Ferragamo at Milan Fashion Week

Milan Fashion Week is almost coming to an end, and I must admit, I was hard pressed to find a legitimate Frock Horror. The clothes look absolutely amazing. However, I did spot a rather funky frock from Salvatore Ferragamo:

While I do like leopard print, it just doesn't match the zebra pattern. The high waisted, loose fitting pants look terribly reminiscent of MC Hammer, and let's face it, purple, leopard and zebra print just don't match.

Frock Horror: Heath Ledger's post break-up mountaineering outfit

With Orlando Bloom we gave you Friday night eye candy. With Heath Ledger we're giving you this week's Frock Horror. Okay, so we tweaked the rules a little this time to include a male fashion disaster, but can you blame us? I mean... what the hell Heath?

I'm so thrown by the stripy socks, red pinstriped culottes and battered jazz shoes, that it's leaving me dizzy. For those of you unfortunate (or is that fortunate) enough not to see it, he is also wearing a rucksack. Yep, that's a rucksack... and to a red carpet event nonetheless. I'm sure he is trying to channel one of the children from the Sound Of Music. I realise he's going through a traumatic break-up with his ex Michelle Williams but isn't the idea to try and show up your former half not have them running for the hills?

Post your comment below and let us know what you think of this week's Frock Horror... the male version.

Frock Horror Of The Week: Beth Mattek's gold ensemble at the US Open

Last week's Frock Horror was the "cake like" gown from Katie Price. Most of you agreed it was pretty typical of Katie to wear something so, uh, eccentric.

While I don't like the idea of everyone talking about what female tennis players wear, rather than how they play, I can't just ignore Beth Mattek's nasty gold ensemble at the US Open. While I appreciate her attempt to jazz things up on the court, this is just too much. Just look at the disapproval on Anna Wintour's face!

Frock Horror of the Week: Katie Price at launch of her new perfume "Stunning"

Last week's Frock Horror of the Week was the all-over sequined dress from Oasis. This week our Frock Horror comes courtesy of the "Stunning" Katie Price.

So, apparently Katie is trying to look like some sort of cupcake, or scoop of melted ice cream in this dress. Granted, she doesn't look nearly as tacky as she usually does at these things, but that doesn't mean she looks good. Why the wedding dress? Why, Katie?

Frock Horror of the Week: sequined dresses from Oasis

Last week's Frock Horror was Amy Winehouse's over-worn white shorts and favorite belt. This week we have two dresses from Oasis...

These two frocks look like snake skinned disco balls. They're both completely covered in sequins, and apparently worth £50 a pop. No thank you...

Frock Horror: Amy Winehouse's favorite shorts and belt are a "no, no, no"...

Last week's Frock Horror of the Week was Bai Ling's red frock at the RED event. (As you can probably tell from that sentence alone, there was just too much 'red'.) This week's Frock Horror comes from the "exhausted" Amy Winehouse...

Now, while I love her beehive and music, girlfriend needs to buy herself some new shorts and a different belt. I appreciate that she loves her Daisy Dukes, especially the white ones, however, wearing the same pair to gig after gig (when you show up, that is) is a bit much. And she wants to design a range of jeans? Also please buy a new belt, they're not that expensive. Hell, I'll even give you one of mine - although you may need to wrap it around your body about four times to make it fit...

Would you buy this 80s print bomber jacket?

Oh. My. Goodness.

Is anyone else having scary flashbacks to MC Hammer and break dancing? Some of you might not remember the days when jackets like this was in fashion, but they would often be seen in photographs and TV shows with people at the snow. Skiers would pair them with stretch headbands and tight curly hair.

Would you wear it? Topshop have marked it down to £25.
