Fashion graveyard: a top 10 – in pictures

A vicious carnivorous duck devours Paris Hilton's pet dog in 2010 as she looks on helplessly. Was the duck ever bought to justice? Did Paris trip over her floor-length fringing? Is that a headband made of teeny-tiny bullets? So many questions, so few answers Photograph: Startraks Photo/Rex Features

Ah, Lady Gaga. You've flitted back and forth between the graveyard and our good books like an enormous sequinned bat. This outfit, worn onstage during the Grammy awards in 2010, reminded us of a futurist rendition of the Sydney Opera House run through a ZX80 and plonked on the head of a Moulin Rouge-esque showgirl with cloven feet. Accessorized - but of course! - with a bone china tea cup. Then again, compared to some of her other outfits at the same event, it actually looks quite low key Photograph: Lester Cohen/WireImage

Louis Vuitton called it a "Raindrop Besace" purse. It cost £1,280. Marc Jacobs, who designed it, told the Times in 2009 that "there's this huge cult following of almost crazy people at Vuitton who just want whatever they buy to be exclusive." So, you've got these devoted, rich customers, and you decide to test their loyalty by flogging them a bin bag with a leather strap, eh Marc? No one comes out of that looking classy Photograph: PR

Raquel Welch, sleep easy. Cheryl Cole performs in 2009 wearing a bright pink, floor-length loincloth. And yet she's not made it in America. It's a mystery wrapped in a cheap flammable lycra enigma Photograph: ITV/Rex Features

Cobra Starship 'keytarist' Victoria Asher leaves little to the imagination at the 2010 People's Choice awards. It is possible to look at this dress without at least one of the following words crossing your mind: ouch, sweat, chafing, talcum? Photograph: BDG/Rex Features

FS must admit that it's seen a lot worse than Konnie Huq's outfit from April 2010. A LOT worse. So much worse that in our 90s, surrounding only by semi-feral moulting cats, we will still wake up screaming at night "Noooo Paris, no!" Nevertheless, it's not every day we get to Photoshop pictures of galleons and dig out our favourite nautical gags, so walk the plank once more, Konnie.

FS does love it when real life looks like a dodgy Photoshop mock up. Here's Chantelle Houghton bringing some fairytale glamour (ahem) to Lakeside Shopping Centre last year. Pleas to leave her up there permanently were foiled when Katie Price rang to say she needed her wedding dress back Photograph: Solent News/Rex Features

And one for the road ... for our final Fashion graveyard pick, here's Sarah Jessica Parker doing her best Wicked Witch of the West impression. Look up, Sarah! Look up! Watch for the falling house! Photograph: Getty
