While some large discount retailers hang on by a wobbly thread, at least one player in the affordable trends game seems to have faith in the bigger is better model. Los Angeles based retailer Forever 21 has been consistently betting shoppers will want their stores large and in...

It's often said fashion is full of contradictions. Clothes can project the image of both Madonna and whore, child and woman, protector and wrathful harbinger of war. And although the freedom to change your mind is a precious one worth fighting for, being a hypocrite does not fall under the...

It would appear Forever 21 is too sexy for Facebook! Yesterday I wrote a post about Forever 21′s close up camel toe snap shots of its models in their underwear and included a capture of one of the worst offenders, pictured below, on WTForever 21′s Facebook page.

Trust me.

When I opened up Forever 21′s online catalog this morning I did not expect to be hit in the face with a big, fatty irony stick. Then again, no one expects the big, fatty irony stick.

Now, I've not so secretly disliked this whole "tribal" and native...

Just in time for New York Fashion Week and the anniversary of 9/11, Forever 21 has pulled an Old Navy and released a t-shirt featuring a fake magazine article on fashion and the spirit of American independence with a funky spelling error and some seriously questionable grammar.

Travel. Is there any bigger pain in the ass?

At the end of this week I'll be winging my way to New York city via Virgin America to catch the beginning of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, and although I love the Big Apple and all the wonders held therein, I truly...

It's an epidemic sweeping the nation and it could be affecting your child, your family and your pocket book. Behavior so dangerous, so insidious, you probably won't even notice your daughter is engaging in it -- that is, until it's too late. I'm writing of course ... about Harem...

I knew this day would come.

The day when the ultra-religious views of Forever 21′s owners crept out from under their signature yellow bags and onto their shelves.

They've always had a penchant for crosses. A sizeable chunk of their accessory stock is crosses. Bedazzled, jazzled, rhinestone dipped and covered...

You all have one. Probably more than one. An embarrassing, blush-inducing photo of yourself with truly regrettable hair and make-up. It's usually coupled with a clothing choice so heinous it can't even be condoned with the catch-all excuse of, "That was the style."

It was a bright, electric green...

Last night was a WTFest of epic proportions.

The Forever 21 at the Glendale, CA, Americana threw a shindig to celebrate the arrival of Petro Zillia's new line, exclusive to the retailer, and when I say that the clothes were tasteful, well made and appropriate for women of all ages...

Forever 21 is well known for taking creative liberties with their clothing and accessory design but they usually have the decency to at least pick an item that's overpriced and in demand.

Now not even cheap, weirdo WTF is safe from their fashion plagiarism.

Below are two...

Some things, like hairless cats or babies with overtly large heads, can be so ugly they are cute. And some things, like pretzels inside M&Ms or Paula Abdul trying to make a point on national television, are so wrong they become right.

Forever 21's newly released line of...

Doing plus-size clothes right is a delicate matter and it's unfortunately not the norm for a trendy clothing creator like Forever 21. But in 2010, the clothing company gave it their best and boy, oh boy, was it bad.

Ruffles. Puffed up cap sleeves. Color-blocking. Horizontal stripes. Tapered ankles. All...

Despite making major strides in the political and civil arenas, this year gave us a WHOLE lotta WTF on the fashion side.

And guess what? If it was butt ugly and ill-conceived in 2010, Forever 21 was there to give us all a front row, reasonably priced ticket...

The intense swagger of our first lady has been well documented.

The bouncy bob, the sensational display of toned and lengthy arms, the cinched waist, the kitten heel, the pearls, the lack of super pricey labels. All of it comes together in a perfect dance of accessible and affordable fashion...

Don't tell Sarah Palin, but over at Forever 21 it's apparently hunting season.

Gold lamé, electric blue and ruched cheetah v-neck dresses? Either the designers at Forever 21 are creating garments solely for petite drag queens or they're anticipating a worldwide community revival of Cats.

Somehow, they've failed to...

If I had to name the least sexy and most disturbing fetish on the planet it would probably be the one for adults who wear diapers.

But for a small subset of folks, adults who dress and act like babies are the most erotic things ever and the...
