Get Your Style from the Newspaper of Bad Taste

Dora Moutot's website La Gazette Du 'Mauvais' Gout is essential reading for anyone willing to look like a freak for the sake of staying ahead of fashion trends.

You don’t need to be a fashion fanatic to figure out how the whole thing works. Whatever is “in fashion” now will be out of style next season, and vice versa. It's an endlessly predictable cycle. To stay ahead of the curve, all you have to do is track down whatever looks stupid at the moment and wear it before anyone else does. Or, if you don’t have time to do that, a goofball fashion expert can do the digging for you—someone like Dora Moutot. Dora’s trend forecasting website is called La Gazette Du 'Mauvais' Gout, which is French for "the newspaper of bad taste." The moniker is a play on France’s first fashion mag, Gazette du Bon Ton.  Dora’s site is essential reading for anyone willing to look like a freak for the sake of staying ahead of the fashion game.
