2011's 15 Most Major Fashion Moments
We'll admit it: 2011 was a bumpy ride. And when it came to fashion buzz, there was a lot to talk about. Who crossed the line here, who made us gasp there — it was an outright circus at times. And no, it wasn't all bad news that dominated our water-cooler gossip. We were also gossiping about which collections we couldn't wait to shop and basically every jaw-dropping dress to appear at the Met (both on mannequins and on the red carpet). In case your recollection is a little fuzzy, thanks to all of the holiday fun, we're taking a trip down memory lane and counting down every headline-making fashion story that held us (and you!) captive this year. Let's start at #15, and work our way up. See if you can guess who snagged the #1 spot...

#15 — If You Thought Jeggings Were Bad, Just Wait For "Stockis"
We'll start with the downright scary. Sure, we love pants with some stretch (especially around holiday-indulgence time) but this video is proof that things have gone too far. Forgot about stockis and tacket? Here's a friendly reminder — just remember to say goodbye before 2012.
#14 — Did American Apparel Just Launch Its Most Sexist Ads Ever? You Tell Us (NSFW)
Dov Charney sufficiently creeped us out all year with his pervasive antics, but this ad released in March really made us think: What exactly is American Apparel selling? Duh, it's pleated pants, guys!
#13 — What Models' Feet Look Like After A Month Of Shows
Models are gorgeous and gets to traipse around in stunning clothes for a living, but we do NOT envy them one bit after seeing this. Actually, we feel sorry for them and their poor feet. OUCH!
#12 — The Sartorialist Makes More Than $250,000 A Year
A picture is worth a thousand words, and even more $$$. We got a glimpse at some of the figures that The Sartorialist Scott Schuman can expect to rack in each year and why he says that "everyone knows not to believe in magazines anymore." Just a little inspiration to get that blog idea you had off the ground.
