I can understand wardrobe malfunctions, but at some point someone has to tell these ladies

that some of these intentional poor fashion choices have jumped the shark.

I suspect that how you judge someone that exposes too much of themselves depends entirely on how you feel about them. Brittany and Hilton, over the top with the car exit exposure. When Anne Hathaway did the same thing we all averted our gaze out of respect, giving her the benefit of the doubt.

When Sophia Vergara stepped out with see-through tights and a zipper malfunction many doubted it was an accident, but gave her a pass anyway.

Now it's Kim Kardashian's turn and the only reason I'm posting the link is because of how she tried to pull down her shirt as if it could hide the offending exposure. So this celebrity HAD to know she was walking in public in see-through tights.

It is just getting out of hand.

It's one thing to show a little leg another to expose yourself.

She looks downright dumpy.

I've never liked Kim Kardashian. I've always had her in the same famous-for-nothing category as Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. RG3 earned a lot of points with me when he blew her skanky ass off.

I have seen a lot of this with the younger crowd. My guess is the gals can't tell that they are see through in the mirror. Then when they are walking outside the sun shines on them...ew cover your eyes. Part of me wants to tell them..(as a mother)

Regardless I still have the thought that if you are going to wear leggings you should wear a shirt long enough to at least cover the hiney.
I try to cover this with my daughter as she loves those yoga pants and to me those are about the same as leggings.

My almost 15 step-daughter has discovered the comfort of leggings. I love them, too, but more around the house, not for public!

Luckily, since I am buying her clothes, I make sure I buy the thickest ones I can find and all of her hoodies and shirts are at least below butt level! Her friends, on the other hand, short shirts, low cut, leggings. At 15. I'm terrified to see how they dress at 18. We have a number of conversations about leaving something to the imaginiation and so far she seems to get it.

"wardrobe malfunction" means to me that something unexpected happened to someone's clothing.

Like a giant rip in someone's pants.

buttons popping off

or some other accident.

I don't call purposely dressing like a skank (no matter who it is...nobody gets a free pass IMO) a wardrobe malfunction.

It's willful and knowing skank dressing.

Either that, or they're too stupid to know they look like hell. Or don't care.

the plunging back line of your stylish gown was enough thank you very much. The see through Depends is overkill.

If you don't like to see these things, my advise is "don't look at paparazzi websites."
