Every white girl this side of the Pacific has weighted in on HBO's Lena Dunham's Girls, and though some have brought up valid points, they're the same three points - it's too white, it's too nepotist or it's really great despite said whiteness and nepotism. And because everyone's too busy waxing poetic like BUT WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN FOR OUR GENERATION, nobody's paying attention to the outfits, and frankly, I'm outraged. Every style blogger spends their Sunday night hoping for a Sally Draper appearance and making googly eyes at Megan's retro-glam wardrobe, but god forbid we bring that sort of shallow materialism within two feet (excuse me, metres) of Girls. So here it goes: my incredibly unqualified interpretation opinion of the wardrobe on Girls:
As per usual, we get right into the episode with Hannah wearing the same tomato sweater from last episode, so I guess we're supposed to believe this is happening after the show? or...? But whatever. Charlie looks cute as shit. He generally looks adorable, so Marnie should be worried.
This is Marnie's worried face.
Lena Hannah sits down for some b-fast with Marnie wearing her hair in milkmaid braids with some sort of neon barrette decoration? I'm not sure if I should call it on trend or 90s-wannabe.
Hannah meets up with Jessa to discuss her boss' loose professionalism, as girls are wont to do. Jessa is wearing another breezy patterned top (this time with a blue tank underneath) with some boho-chic earrings, a chain-link handbag (love!) and a poorly executed top knot. I know she has better hair than that. Anyway, Hannah's wearing the most unflattering orange and pink striped dress ever - stripes over the boobs are vertical = slimming = dumb. Stripes over your hips/bottom are horizontal = widening = dumb. This should be a lesson ladies. Also, no brown cardigans ever unless it's Prada.
Jemma's using her babysitting gig employer/future hookup's wife's lipstick. Does this look like it should be on the cover of some 90s record? That you, Courtney Love?
Charlie's friend Ray looks like my cousin's gross ex-boyfriend so I already hate him. And my god, Marnie has the best fucking hair in the world. BITCH.
Oh, and she showed up at her now-ex-boyfriend's apartment for the first time wearing a trench coat and heels and a shit ton of makeup during the day. His place really does look like a Target ad though.
So Marnie's on some other shit and OMG SCISSOR SISTERS!!! Marnie, stop it with those bangs. Just stop it.
Oh and Marnie was stuck to a pole and good LORD HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW HE WAS GAY?
Of. Fucking. Course. Jemma used to date someone that looks like this and says things like "You have such a beautiful mind" and wears a fucking vest. Good fucking lord. This guy is such a fool.
This is what it looks like to get fucked out of a window. Weird.
While Jemma gets fucked, Shoshanna awkwardly watches on because DUH she's a virgin. I refuse to believe this has ever happened to anyone before.
This is what a guy looks like when he jerks off. Wait, no, this is what THIS guy looks like. G-ross.
Appropriately enough, this is Hannah's best facial reaction to watching Adam jerk off.
