Ugliest Pattern Ever Contest

From the discussion over here, I can tell you ladies love talking about ugly patterns! Since it's so much fun, let's make it a contest: In this thread, post an image of the ugliest pattern envelope you can find. I'll pick the winner based on my completely objective tastes. The winner will receive a definitely non-ugly pattern from my stash (I'll hopefully have the right size for you).

Get going and let's see some heinous patterns!

I have video evidence of a family friend wearing that floral jumpsuit number at my 2nd birthday party... It is not a good look.

I have no idea why I've kept this pattern, since I never intend to make it.  But here is my worst pattern in all its glory.

 

Tent?  Bathrobe? Beach Cover-up?  Either way, all it looks like to me is someone taking 5 yards of fabric, and cutting out a hole for the head and adding a waistband.

It's so bad.... and the color?!  Eeeek.

 

I don't think it was ever used, but I'd really love to know who in my family bought this pattern so I could tease them.  hehehe  (All in good fun of course.)

I actually like it (without a collar). I think some nice drapey fabric, beautiful print and length modification - and it could be a winner. I think this challenge is so interesting - like letting your inner designer and stylist out.

You're sooo welcome to this pattern.  :) 

 

I'm only 4'11" so this would swamp me.  I'd look like yoda in it.  heh

It IS sorta Princess Leia like, but I agree with Frabjous--I think it could be lovely. Of course, the model could spread her arms out to make wings and fly to a galaxy far, far away.

lol, this is such a good comparison! yoda or leia, it would make a great Halloween pattern then. And now that I look at it more, turn it into a mini and  it is a Snooky look.

yeah, at 5', I have to remind myself that I'm not cut out for a tent, no matter how good Princess Leia may look in it.

The lady in the blue version reminds me of Princess Leia for some reason....

For the times that you want to let your inner Chewbacca out...
