The Traumatic memories of Kwon Kyung Yup

Lindsey Thornburg Fall 10

have been such a fan of Lindsey Thornburg and her cloaks for so long and when she started branching out into ready to wear pieces I was hooked.

CHRISTMASLIST: Leather necklace bag by Eyglo Margret Larusdottir

BLACK & WHITE

Sass & Bide, absolute favorite show thus far for FW2010.

And, Rad Hourani's got the unisex thing down PAT; I can honestly say I'd wear any one of these.

Tattoed babes, from the 1920s and 50s. Strange to think that this degree of body art was grotesque enough to warrant participation in a circus sideshow.

Plus, tattooing a bra seems like a supremely bad idea. But our anonymous friend below is rocking a faux bra, and, dare I say it, it looks strangely...satisfying?

KRONIER CRAZY

stumbled on German designer Kronier Creations a few months ago, after reading a sort of bitter comment on another post about how they'd been making these platform boots for decades before those Nina Ricci's broke onto the scene and became enormously popular. I don't know that the Nina Ricci's were ever produced for the public, but these are a totally viable alternative! And Kronier makes them in blue metallic and a latexy type material. How can one resist latex??

GLUTTONIZING

Of course I like jagged crystal teeth, and glimmering crowns fashioned from hands... And so does Rupert Kojima, the designer behind Hotel Gluttony, and the creator of these seriously beautiful and very mad jewelry objets. (My kinda boy.)
