Since we're dispensing fashion advice to Theresa May Hmm I thought I'd balance the batshit.

I mean, have you seen the colour of his hair? Shock And those glasses?? Shock Shock

A leather kilt would take care of the balls on display problem nicely - as long as he doesnt take acting lessons from Sharon Stone

Put bag on head.

Eliza22 · 02/07/2016 13:59

Isn't his wife a style guru of some type?

I think he looks fine. He's bigger things in his mind other than how he looks. And that's as it should be.

NameChanger22 · 02/07/2016 14:03

The world has gone mad. Style guru - hahaha.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 02/07/2016 14:08

Personally, I think he'd look great with an axe embedded in his skull.

Lurkedforever1 · 02/07/2016 14:31

He should take off the gimp suit that he wears underneath, because clearly that is the likely cause of his facial expression.

He'd also suit a red silk lined Cape and a coffin, it would compliment his vampire look. Vampire of the unattractive type, not of the twilight variety.

And 48? I thought he was in his 60's!

EmmaWoodlouse · 02/07/2016 14:32

He urgently needs to wear something so ridiculous that nobody would want to vote for him! But yes, he looks very old for 48, if I knew an ordinary person who didn't have the potential to ruin my country who looked like him I would be telling them to go a bit more modern.

Lurkedforever1 · 02/07/2016 15:05

He could perhaps dress as Colin from the money supermarket ads, and incorporate the dance routine into his campaign?

Or a high school musical cheerleader with the pom-poms glued to his nipples?

Strokes bristly chin thoughtfully

That might just work. Teamed with a natty mini kilt and lace up boots without the laces, and I reckon we could send him into the wider world with pride

He looks much better in person, but photographs appallingly

MitzyLeFrouf · 02/07/2016 16:13

I'd suggest he fashion a a cave out of shit and crawl inside it and stay there. He can bring his wife with him for company.

Badders123 · 02/07/2016 16:20

Mankini and gimp mask
Can't make him look worse, really.

timelytess · 02/07/2016 16:25

Any suit he likes as long as he wears it with cement shoes.

I'm not endearing myself to him on MN, am I? That might be an issue.

Lurkedforever1 · 02/07/2016 16:26

Could the lace up boots without laces be roller skating boots? He'd just need to remember to wear his mankini underneath his kilt on windy days

ThoraGruntwhistle · 02/07/2016 16:28

Dye his hair green, spike it up nicely. Replace the glasses with some rejected by Timmy Mallett for being too wacky. Liposuction on his chubby cheeks. Get him to wear stilts.

GlassCircles · 02/07/2016 16:30

A natty hat and neckerchief combo would complement his looks, I think.

Get a suit that fits. Baggy shoulders teamed with lifted and separated bollocks is not a look the world is going to take seriously.

Shit forgot the evidence

This perhaps for AW16?

Absolutely. He's going to be a busy man, scooting about the world looking for countries who will do business with us, as well as running away from a very cross Nicola in her peerie heels and natty suits image overhaul there too, methinks. Roller boots are just the thing for all that.

Holy mother of cheese Shock - That is uncanny Glass

Is that actually him??

Perhaps his wife's connections have got him a spot of modelling on the side?

Lurkedforever1 · 02/07/2016 16:55

Modelling what? Gargoyles?

Yy, very busy trying to convince world leaders he is actually alive, rather than a badly animated corpse. Wheels would assist with this. Especially remote control roller boots.

SirChenjin · 02/07/2016 17:10

Who would hold the remote though?? This could get interesting....

OP posts:
Lurkedforever1 · 02/07/2016 17:32

Control of the remote could be part of a game/talent show. All the cabinet perform karaoke, and if the panel aren't impressed the Labour Party and lib dems get a turn of the remote. Whereas if the panel were impressed by eg Boris and his rendition of Beyoncé crazy in love, the Tory MPs get the remote.
