London-based designer Inbar Spector is pretty much the master of making honeycomb gowns. I’ve written about Inbar before and have her on my radar. What I love most about her designs is how ethereal and otherworldly they are. It sort of does remind me of Alexander McQueen if he had a super feminine …

Artist Guy Laramee has a lot of time to kill with these incredibly detailed landscapes chiseled onto books, encyclopedias and anything else that the iPad killed. Seriously, I have to hand it to him for making such creations because a) it requires a super steady hand b) a lot of imagination and c) mad …

Don’t ask me if these are cool, because I will reply, “If it’s fluffy, it’s fo sho COOL!”. So, cool it is because they are probably as snuggle-y as the furrrrrrr queen, Mr. Marmar. And as added bonus, they’re all the colors a tween girl I love! My fave …

Israeli artists Yael Mer & Shay Alkalay designed these hand bags that a medieval lady would love to carry. I mean, heads were rolling left and right back then, why not make good use of it as a handbag. What makes these bags extra creepy is the that the bag is formed …

Dang! Those hats are pretty serious. They’re totally the hat preferred by most pimps. I really just posted these because of the hats, because the clothes look like really like something an old lady with circulation problems wears on a 70 degree day. I’m guilty of bundling up though, during …

Thom Browne brought out the insanity for the ladies, as well, this season. I’m not sure what all the extra padding is about, but surely a chic mental hospital somewhere is already putting in an order for those. As for the fox shawls, I really like those, since it’s like …

French artist Lou Giesen designed these pieces of jewelry that look like organs in a human body. I’m not sure what the top photo is but if I saw that hanging some chick’s neck, I would probably tell her she should have that taken care of STAT. The gold necklace is actually …

New York based designers Creatures of the Wind showed their Fall 2012 collection featuring miss-matched pieces from the local thrift store. No, these were specially designed pieces that will be hanging in Barneys in a few months for exorbitant amounts of money. I have to hand it to them , though, …

The Bang-Bang handle by Russian Nikita Kovalev is definitely on my ‘How to be a Bad-Ass List‘. If I replaced all my doorknobs with this, I would be well on my way to frightening guests and scarring small children. But, nonetheless, still badass. Although, I can’t read Russian, I gather from her …

This is a super tiny collection by Serkan Curaird, which I’m guessing is a newcomer to the Paris Couture fashion scene. I’ve never heard of him (or her), remarkably, but I’m glad I have now. My fave is the fourth photo of what looks to be a cross between Toucan …
