Love It or Leave It: Mother-Daughter Edition

A photo of Madonna and Lourdes

Here’s a photo of Madonna and daughter Lourdes at the launch of their new fashion line, and seeing as how these guys are smart designers now,  I just wanted to take a moment to analyze their ensembles.  When I first saw this picture, my first thought was “Oh, that’s nice – Lourdes is a grunge era hooker and Madonna is her no-nonsense, more classy pimp.”  And I stand by that.  If you don’t see it, just take a look at Lourde’s peekaboo flannel and Madonna’s leather gloves.  Now picture a dramatic slow-motion scene (I’m thinking with “Polly” by Nirvana in the background) of Madonna yelling at Lourdes about profits and appearances and “young lady, do you think those torn tights are going to bring in the dough?”  And then you’ll be where I am.

That scenario aside (along with the fishnets and leather gloves), I think Madonna’s dress is actually pretty great, but I cannot get past Lourde’s flannel and studded leather to seriously analyze her style.  What do you guys think?  Does this make you want to buy some clothes these ladies designed?

  • I’m just so relieved that Lourdes finally, finally, finally (and granted this happened a while back) takes care of her unibrow. The end.

  • A comedian/writer on Chelsea Lately (I forget his name) not long ago, said that “no one who hasn’t hit puberty yet should have a ‘career’.” I’m going to have to agree with him on that with regards to Madonna and Lourdes. Oddly enough, isn’t she often referred to as “Lola” hopefully not ala LiLo?

    While we’re not all set out to have the same path in life, we should all be allowed to at least grow up first, so we don’t have to when ramifications aren’t as severe. Aka – get in trouble when you’re young. When you’re over 18, it’s much more costly to sew the ol wild oats that should’ve been sewn in college or before.

    Lourdes looks like she’s going to be GORGEOUS – she already is. And now that she’s in the spotlight even more than she was when she was simply “Madonna’s daughter,” I’m more than a lil nervous for her

  • love it. madonna is setting her up to succeed and she’s strict. very strict. the kid’s finally getting a little bit of freedom and the direction and attention of her mom. i think it’s a good thing, and i think they both look great.

  • What bothers me the most about this is that lourdes is a teenager, and her mom should appear to her like an uncool aging grandmother of pop- not something to copy and aspire to. If you’re copying your mom’s look when you’re a teen and your mom basically invented that look, and you’re probably not going to do it better than her, and your mom is STILL dressing that way… I don’t know, it seems bizarre and wrong. sweet, but wrong. I always thought lourdes would wind up like the daughter out of absolutely fabulous- if you guys have seen that- rebelling against her mother by dressing in high- collared shirts that cover everything and focusing on her studies.

  • They are having fun and your calling her a whore. You Fail. Madonnas child speak’s French ect, is smart..Madonna has done more for the world and all walks of life. I feel sorry for people who spend all their time hating.. And all you can do is dig on peoples clothes ect.. So you feed the poor do something for others and get a life. We think yourselfish and your point is mute!
