I give this ep a 4/5. The Ron/Barkin stuff was comedy gold. Seeing Mr. Barkin go crazy and end up with a Grizzly Adams beard was hilarious and humanizing at the same time. Funny stuff. It was also nice to see Monique sub as K.P.'s backup. The friction between Kim and Monique felt forced. Kim jealous of Monique for being promoted. Monique excusing Kim of stealing when she should have gave her a benefit of a doubt for being her best female friend. Of course, Monique follows Kim to Milan and the two bicker for awhile before getting their game in gear to defeat the bad guys. I agree about the forcedness of the Kim/Monique friction, although Kim's jealousy over not being able to see the new Club Banana designs (which is what she was actually jeallin' about-- K.P. even admitted it later) seemed in character for her. It didn't make sense to me that Monique would not only miss that "Kim" was wearing a completely different outfit when the designs were stolen, but not mention it at all to Kim until school the next day. That sitch seemed like something Monique would have immediately called/beeped Kim about directly after the theft. Awkweird. On the other hand, it's about time we saw a little more friction between them. Except for what happened in "Exchange", their relationship has seemed pretty flawless so far. Good friendships aren't always sunshine and lollipops. Friends argue over stupid things sometimes. That part didn't seem all that strange to me. Just the way it was done kinda bugs, IMO. The Fashionistas were interesting. They at least were able to put up a fight convincingly. I now dislike Camille Leon even more than Bonnie Rockwaller and Adrena Lynn combined. A perfectly good morphing ability and name is completely wasted on a lame, vapid, Paris Hilton wannabe. Even if she can't fight, she could at least be witty. And she's not. We're not going to see Camille again, right? Please, please, please tell me that's it.

See, I actually enjoyed (and believed) the nastiness between Monique and Kim. Girls can be petty.

Hate to break it to you haters, but it was said that Camille was slated for three episodes. So far, this makes two. Just one more to go.

Oh, I don't mind Camille at all! She's a most awesome villainess.

Did anything come before the moment when Kim is drawing a circle with the lipstick on the plane(?) ?
And does anybody know which studio animated this episode?

To the first question, Kim and Ron are driving an ATV across the desert when the attack copters pursue them. Kim grapples onto the head chopper and pulls out a lipstick, only to realize that it's not the laser lipstick (right color, wrong lipstick). As for the second, most likely the same studio KP always had.

Ditto. Missing a new KP episode is UNTHINKABLE. I can't even stand the thought. I'm still recovering from the Trauma

^_^ You know, that's the second time the regular lipstick was taken out instead of the laser lipstick. Rufus doesn't look half-bad in that shade. XP

3.5
I LIKED THIS EPISODE SOLEY FOR THESE TWO REASONS:
1. Mr. Barkin looked like a giant knome in red high heels x)
2. This episode TOTALLY foresaw Paris Hilton being sent to jail.... x) (Y'all heard she's off to jail for 45 days, right? LMAO!
WAS IT JUST ME... or did Kim and Monqiue's smiles totally change? Like.. check them out next time when they smile.... the style's different O__o

I loved it. Barkin....that was the best I've ever seen him (though I ALWAYS love Barkin ^_^). "HE's Mr. Barkin!"...I laughed so hard at that. The fashion police...oi...I hated the fashion police. Remind me of those girls in high school...well..it's like the perfect job for Bonnie, really.

Fashion Victim was ok. I liked Clothes Minded better, though.

The ending credit is real funny though. I wonder what will happend to Mr.B
Anyway, I cannot believe that Ron could not tell which is the real Kim. This is so unreasonable. (Kim should give him a good lesson indeed)
I mean Kim can tell which one is real Ron (althought by the help of Rufus) but come on. You don't even know you own girlfriend? That is just sad

I think Camille is able to fully transform into other people. She was just shown with darker skintone and blue eyes so that the viewers could tell her apart. After all she was able to fully transform in Trading Faces, why should it be different now?
Saw the episode on german DC last Saturday, also saw it in English. I liked the episode. Fashion Police rocks, Mr. Barkin working at Smarty Mart and being trapped with Ron in a giant crate was funny, I love the Fashionistas, the scene with Wade and Monique was soo cute.

Yeah I know but Ron should asked something like "Wherer is the worst summer experince in my life?". That is something at least Camellia will never know

Didn't really like this episode, I felt Camille Leon was wasted on her second outing, thus making for a pretty lousy follow up compared to her great debut in Trading Faces.
The idea of Kim getting framed by Camille was a great one, but we really should've saw something happen that affected Kim because of Camille's actions(perhaps her getting arrested or losing her job only for her to get it back by proving herself innocent), but instead we got her being watched by the Fashion Police as punishment. WEAK!!!
Speaking of the Fashion Police it was nice to hear Neil Flynn doing voice work on KP for a 2nd time as one of the FP's. Scrubs fans would know Neil Flynn as The Janitor.
It was nice to get some development on Mr. Barkin and why he works at SM, but his antics inside the crate were way to creepy for my liking, I prefer the Mr. Barkin thats "tough but fair" that we see in episodes like Ill Suited, not a guy who loses his mind because he's locked in a crate. I also liked the Fashionistas alot better in Clothes Minded, here they were never properly expanded on.
Overall there's a couple developments, and a few nice action sequences, but it just doesn't add. Thus giving us one of the weakest episodes of Season 4.

I agree with a lot of what cadmus said. I wish Camile would have had a bigger part and the Fashionistas a smaller part . The episode had it's moments, like the Fashion Police (like Shego said, where were they when they were needed in Clothes Minded? ;D). However, the biggest killer of this episode was the plot... a plot that I frankly did not care for. Combine that with the lameness of the Fashionistas, and you get the worst episode of season four. As bad as it is, it is still watchable and better than all the live action shows on the Disney channel. ;D 2/5
