Rocky Horror: Best & Worst!

I did things a little differently on this list, I actually chose who I thought was the best for most categories! I don't normally do it that way since there's so many of us that judge and we almost always have different opinions, but for Rocky I couldn't resist!

BEST Dr. Frank-N-Furter
sayanythingelse ~ Almag7607

Dan: I actually expected more Dr. Franks, It's one of the reasons I went as Brittany from Glee as Columbia. I like them both, they are both well made and have enough detail without going over the top, which I think people can easily do with themes. I'd have to say I like sayanythingelse most though, her shoes are killer and it seems to flow more.

Jack: *no comment available due to death by awesomeness* Hehe, no. Almost though! Both outfits are beyond epic. I am obsessed with leather, chains and studs so these outfits are heavenly to me! I can't really choose a winner because I'm in love with both of them.

Perez: I flipped back and forth between these two pictures for like 5 minutes trying to figure out which I liked best and I just couldn't, I had to declare it a draw! You both did an amazing job!!

Rhiann: Wow, I love them both! Call Guinness World Records because I think that might be a first. I don't think anyone could have done a better job!

ellie8971

Dan: Its cute enough, it's not something that I'll look back on and admire but I like how she went for a different look instead of the leather jacket, classic Frank.

Jack: It's okay, but she didn't really nail it. It's kind of bland and it just doesn't excite me.

Rhiann: I like that she went for something different, but at the moment it looks a little 'Sunday school'. It could do with being dragged up a little bit more. Don't be afraid to take a bit of artistic license!

Perez: I don't know yal, I'm gonna have to be odd man out on this one because I really like it! I love how she was able to recreate the look just using what she already had, and I LOVE her make-up! Great job girl!

 Sarahbear123

Perez: I forgot to upload this one before everyone else started commenting so unfortunately the other judges didn't get to see it, but I think it goes without saying that it's f*cking awesome!! Could this BE anymore perfect?!! NO! It could NOT! Sarah, you made this outfit your b*tch. I really don't know how else to put it.

Misc. Frank-N-Furters 
BASHY77, Kaami1990, Holly Lacey., rose8971

Dan: They all just look like gothic prostitutes or lesbian vampires to me, unless any of them were themed on something but they didn't think to mention it?

Jack: Oh good lord. Listen you guys, I'm sorry you were rejected by the emo lesbian porn industry, but you shouldn't take it out on us.

Rhiann: None of you have seen the film, have you? That's cool, but a little more effort than just putting on black underwear and red lipstick would have been good. Holly Lacey, I have no idea what's going on with the mullet dress.

Perez: BASHY's is actually really nicely detailed, that top is perfect for Frank-N-Furter's corset, I love that she included the tattoo, and she even has a makeshift garter belt on that matches his! She's either seen the movie or she really did her research, she did an awesome job!! Kaami's is okay, not very detailed but still a good match, and I thought rose's was a cute interpretation too. Holly said she was going for the modern, female version of Frank-N-Furter. Since he's a transvestite, I'd say he's already the "female" version of himself lol! There's nothing modern about it either.

BEST Columbia
sko1234

Perez: She really stood out to me as the best Columbia, I absolutely love the smirk, the make-up, the hairstyle, I think she designed the best shorts, and just her whole overall vibe is very cool, sinister but fun, which is Columbia in a nutshell!

Dan: Perfect classic Columbia.

Jack: Superb! Columbia was a popular choice and she really got every detail next-to-perfect, especially the shorts and the jacket!

Rhiann: Nailed it! I don't know if her doll always has that expression or it's part of the costume but it goes so well. No improvements, definitely the best in a big, big category.

amy_0202, dream.on, kitkat91011, megamaggie6, waifish

Dan: I can't pick fault with anyone, that star design jacket was perfect for Columbia and you all put a lot of effort in making the shorts and following the Columbia look, I like amy_0202's jacket the most, it seems to sparkle a bit more, dream.on has the best shorts and I think waifish has the best crazy make up, so you all did great, just in different ways.

Perez: Yeah I agree with Dan, I liked different things about different outfits that I felt stood out as the best. Amy sent me a really nice graphic where you can see how great her make-up is, and I love how she added a hoodie underneath to make her sleeves longer! It looks so seamless! You're right Dan, she definitely added a little something to the design to get it to sparkle more, awesome job!! dream.on has the perfect sneer and I love how she attempted the top hat, kitkat found the perfect shoes for Columbias tap shoes and I liked her Star Designed corset t-shirt, megamaggie6 looks pretty good overall, and I agree that waifish has the best make-up plus I love how she improvised the socks!

Jack: Some of them look a little creepy and weird, but I guess most of them look somewhat like Columbia.

Rhiann: I went to write 'They all look the same!' until I realised what this list was. What can I say, I'm naturally blonde. Anyway, they aren't horrible but they just don't stand out. Maybe if less people came as Columbia we'd be making more of a big deal.

Glee's Columbia
SaltyDan

Perez: LOVE!! Brittany was an awesome Columbia on Glee! Great minds think alike, I almost came as Magentified Quinn! (before I realized everyone else was coming as Magenta and changed my mind lol) This was brilliant, and your face and make-up were perfect!

Misc. Columbias
ashy_loves_you, Kaami1990, Laurenhorse

Jack: Most of them look like overly classy Moulin Rouge strippers. Dan's is the only one that makes sense.

Rhiann: I get that Dan came as the Columbia from Glee, but where are the others from? I can't really judge if they did a good job recreating it or not, but hey, they look cute.

Dan: Yay! I'm glad you heard I was Brittany from Glee as Columbia, I figured there would be a lot of the sequin jacket version so I thought I would go in a different direction, I like Kaamii's sparkley top, if she had gotten herself a golden jacket and some more accurate shorts I think she could have been the best Columbia of the night.

Perez: Ashy looks gorgeous, it is a Moulin Rouge Columbia but I could still see the character wearing it (albeit in an alternate, very French universe) so it works for me, and his make-up is great! Kaami is actually just Columbia in the scene with Eddie [singing "Hot Patootie, Bless My Soul (I Really Love That Rock 'n' Roll)"] where she isn't wearing her jacket and hat, and her tank top is definitely the best. Had she worn the spiked choker and had better shorts hers would have been one of my favorites. I'm really not crazy about Laurenhorse's, what is with that random piece of hair clipped to your head?

BEST Magenta
-LimitedEdition

Perez: I was back and forth between -LimitedEdition and blueberry-dream for a long time, and in the end I had to give it to Limited because her costume and face are the best overall for me. I wish she had gotten the hair right because it's such a major factor in the look, I mean the big frizzy hair IS Magenta, but this outfit cannot be ignored it's perfect and gorgeous. I love how she made her apron, and her face is creepy but still sexy which is very much in keeping with the character.

blueberry-dream, Mary - Riiviera, aisjhfiud

Dan: I like them all but none of them quite grab my attention, sorry. Limited-Edition has the best apron though.

Jack: All four of them did a really nice job. They all layered the skirts (or shorts/tablecloths) nicely. I just wish someone would have gone full on creepy Magenta with make up.

Rhiann: Blueberry is my favourite here because she matched Magenta so perfectly, but there's still no fault with the rest of them. Limited Edition has the prettiest outfit (where's the red hair, girl?) aisjhfiud did a great job remaking the apron. Mary, are those shorts on the front of your dress?

Perez: Like I said before, blueberry-dream is a very close second for Best Magenta! I also liked aisjhfiud's, her face is perfect and the layering of the skirts was very smart and creative. I loved Mary's, it's weird because I was going to wear almost the same exact thing when I was planning on coming as the Glee version of Magenta. I'm not sure if that's what Mary was going for but she nailed it

Misc. Magentas
A_True_Beauty, Cheekychops1234, tumblr, JuicyC2890

Jack: They all either look too risque or too boring, nothing special here from any of these guys. A_True_Beauty's is the best and most accurate.

Rhiann: Oh god, there's more. It's a tie between Juicy and Cheeky (insert ass-related joke here) for this one - Juicy's apron is great, it looks like a hipster remake of Rocky Horror, and I love that Cheeky included a feather duster. Accessorize!

Dan: I agree with Rhiann, I like the duster, but that's about it, the first lot were better and I didn't really find them very interesting.

Perez: None of these really caught my eye, though I do agree with everything Rhiann just said. Also, what's up with tumblr's hat? She had it on last week as Cruella as well, is this a Linda/Katy Perry/scarf situation where she literally can't remove it from her doll??

BEST Janet
lilsha123

Dan: It's cute and I like the hat and hair but the rest is not accurate, I appreciate this must have taken some cash to create but the dress is wrong...wrong color, wrong jacket, wrong bag. Yeah it's a nice outfit but it's not Janet.

Jack: YAY for Janet! I can imagine it being difficult to make a Janet outfit, because she doesn't really wear anything amazing throughout the movie (except from in this scene). If it were me, I would have used a different bag and possibly given myself a bouquet.

Rhiann: ...And now I have the song in my head. Janet doesn't really wear that much during the rest of the film, but she did a great job recreating this - especially the hair! I just think it would have been better if the Stardesign t-shirt didnt have the big weird buttons on the front. 

Perez: lilsha is actually a combination of wedding Janet, whose dress suit does look kind of purple in some pictures, and Janet when she arrives at Frank-N-Furter's castle (in this picture you can really see all the details she attempted). It's not a perfect Janet, but it's my favorite and I love it!

Underwear Janet
Kaami1990

Perez: Slut!

Dan: I guess I'm the only one who kinda likes it? Kaamii came as Columbia too and I liked hers, This is undoubtedly an easy choice but nobody else thought of it and I think it was a kinda genius to be able to make an outfit with only using two items of clothing! (Perez Edit: I agree, I liked it too, I just couldn't resist shouting slut at her! :D:D)

Jack: This outfit is so easy to make and she still didn't even get it to look similar.

Rhiann: That's just lazy.

Misc. Janets
Diva6723 ~ aisjhfiud ~ liajm

Perez: liajm was my second place choice for best Janet, except for the yellow barrette in her hair which I found so distracting for some reason! Just the pink one would have been perfect. Both Diva and aisjhfiud look great though.

Dan: I like aisjhfiud the most, she really went into detail with the hair clip and I think her outfit is the most accurate. Liajm looks like a teenage girl trying to get into a wine bar and Diva looks like a teacher.

Jack: I suppose they are kind of cute, but if you put them in front of me and asked me who they were, I wouldn't be able to tell.

Rhiann: Ooh, pretty! I take it they are all from the wedding scene? Nice...I can't really say more than that. I would be so bad on Fashion Police.

Brad
Laurenhorse

Perez: Asshole!

Dan: I like it, but I don't love it. I wish I had gone as Brad.

Jack: I appreciate that it would be tricky to make a Brad if your doll was and had always been female, but c'mon, Brad is a great and important character, this outfit disappoints me.

Rhiann: Haha, Lauren managed to make Brad look kinda hot! I love that she fully committed and actually changed genders for this. That's the Rocky Horror spirit!

BEST (& worst) Riff Raff
devie44, freeduck_ ~ laurenboy

Jack: devie44 looks like a weird, desperate mess, what is going on there? I did rush my Riff Raff so it didn't turn out as good as I hoped. Someone please give laurenboy a pair of tweezers.

Rhiann: I always wondered why Stardoll gave us that awful hair, and now we know why. They know us so well. The first two are awesome, I love that devie44 managed to make Riff Raff look really gaunt and creepy. Although, lets be honest, it's not hard! I love they all have hunchbacks too, I totally would have forgotten about that. Laurenboy, I love you've got into the gender-bending spirit, but Riff Raff doesn't wear a womens shirt. Especially one with apple-shaped buttons.

Perez: I wish I could put devie's face (great job on the make-up!) on Jack's body! That would have been my perfect Riff Raff! :D:D But dear god laurenboy, that's just awful. Why the caterpillar eyebrows, why?!

Dan: Jack wins by miles, his is the only one that looks like it had any effort behind it.

BEST Eddie
Welsh_witch
"I really don't get enough chances to dress up as Meatloaf."
 
Jack: Perfection! This is a great Eddie and I don't think I could have reached such levels of greatness if I tried. Everything is SPOT ON.

Rhiann: Quote says it all. I'm thinking Spice Girls party next, so I can come as Meatloaf the Bus Driver?

Perez: Just another episode of Rhiann Being Awesome And Making Perez Want To Kiss Her À La Sexual Harassment Lawsuit, that's all. Thank god someone came as Eddie!

Rocky
PerezStarGossip ~ Chace.Clarke

Perez: I've gotta give it to Chace, he had zero Stardollars to his name but did that stop him? Hellz no, gurlfriend pulled a Scarlett O'Hara, ripped down the curtains and made himself some shorts damnit! I was going for a cross between female Rocky and an African White Space Christ.

Jack: This best dressed list has had more sex changes than mizzmileycyrus9. Females being male character, males being female characters etc. really capturing the true essence of TRHPS! Chace did a wonderful job, creative idea with the shorts! Perez looks like she literally stole the actual boots from Rocky, they're like, identical! (Perez Edit: Those boots took FOREVER, by the time I was done I could barely stand to look at them! :D:D)

Rhiann: Perez, those things go together so well! I'm considering adopting it for an everyday style. Chace did a good job considering Stardoll's limited how buff our dolls can be, but all I can think is how uncomfortable those shorts look.

The Transylvanians
TrixieDeeLight ~ To_Royal

Jack: I think for once, Dei didn't over do it. She obviously didn't abandon her layering ways, but this time she didn't make it look like she was suffocating in heaps of jewellery and/or clothing. Blake also looks lovely and much like a Transylvanian!

Rhiann: Dei wins! But Trixie looks great too. The Transylvanians were always the creepiest thing about this film to me, so I'll just skip ahead.

Perez: I can't even tell you how much I love these outfits! I'm obsessed with them both, they're two of my absolute favorites of the night, I wasn't expecting anyone to attempt the Transylvanians so it's that much more awesome to me.

Misc.
musicqueenxx2, Bonekinha03, Heather

Jack: Who are these people? What even...

Rhiann: They all seem to have come as the same person, but I have no idea who. Maybe it's just me being thick. While we're at the end of this list, where were all the Bad Ass Space Alien Riff Raffs and Magentas? I tried to do that costume but gave up because I had no dollar. (Perez Edit: I thought about it too, but I couldn't find that Bride of Frankenstein wig in the Star Bazaar! =/)

Perez: I like them, I see they were trying to go with the theme but still do their own thing. musicqueen's is my favorite of the three, that dress is awesome!

This week's theme will be up tonight!
