    Well at least she fitted it on a Ken doll to ensure proper fit.

    If Barbie was giving Ken the brush-off before, this certainly isn’t going to help his cause.

    I’d have to agree with the poll results; Rob Pattinson just looks retarded in it.

    My gran used to make me far superior Barbie and Ken clothes when I was a kid. Too bad she died, otherwise she could have opened an Etsy store.

    Shortly after this photo was taken, Ken fell to his death from the bookshelf. Malibu Barbie TM Police are calling it a suicide.

    Do I have to choose?

    @daisyj I do believe there are groups for this. Hi, I’m a moron, and I can’t stop embroidering ridiculous clothing for dolls. Every child hates it when my creations arrive, because I’m a fashion disaster. I’ve been free from sewing for 2 days now…

    Aw, I’m picturing a little old grandma sewing barbie clothes to pay for her prescriptions and a little bingo money. Only a grandma would think a grown doll-man would wear this and only a grandma would not see the hilarity in easy on/easy off pants. Two scotches into the afternoon, and I still can’t make fun of this. C’est dommage.

    #10 creepyd I enjoyed the peek into the backstory that eventually leads to your inspired and goulish dolls “with teeth for eyes” The dicodamy of Grandmas fine craftsmanship juxtaposed with the connection to your Grandpa’s junk combined produces the mindset for Creepydolls! BRAVO!

    #29 Yes 20 years and yet upfront the seller tells us but for this urge beyond her control this was created. Nothing that follows “I couldn’t help myself” ends well. So seller if the clothes were created because you “couldn’t help yourself” you then put them on display for sale on Etsy TWISTED

    @35: Sort of — he couldn’t resist the “charms” of the new Snooki doll. Unfortunately, she was also anatomically correct, complete with herpes and fake orange tan. If you look at his back, he’s white as snow (though sporting an oddly placed grease slick from The Sitch).

    A confession: something happens to me…something happens whenever I see “Who wore it better?” or “View it in a room,” at the bottom of a new entry. It’s a tingly sort of feeling…it runs from my belly button down to..well that area down there…as I click and wait for google chrome to load it…I wonder, I imagine…and the joy when it finally gives me what I’ve been waiting for…it’s ALWAYS so much better than what I thought it would be….well, that’s the best part of my day sometimes. It’s sad, but true. The cheap anticipation…brings joy to my black little walnut of a heart. And the wine helps too…but I don’t want to digress

    Damn. To late to vote in the poll.

    My mom used to sew all my Ken and Barbie clothes when I was a kid, and even with the elastic waist bands, they looked a lot better than this. Of course, this was a woman who spent most of her life sewing her own clothes, as well as clothes for her three daughters (at least until they got old enough to start complaining). So she KNEW what she was doing.
