Scientists in Australia had a brilliant idea to add a nasty bacteria to wine to transform it into the fabric of our lives- cotton. Seriously, this is something people at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting would brainstorm when their mentor is gone for a few minutes to the restroom. I mean, …

London College of Fashion graduate Rikke Bonde designed a collection that has me sort of wondering if he’s ever been to California. According to Fashion 156, ” The collection was highly influenced by a journey Rikki made to California.” Really? Because last I remember, usually you sweat your balls off, …
Read More »Strange Sculptures by Ron Ulicny
Artist Ron Ulicny creates pieces that make you think for a long damn time. I like those kinds of artists. For instance, the fat sumo with an iPAD… shouldn’t he be putting on his diaper instead of playing ‘Angry Birds’? And is he an iPAD dock at the same time? These are …
Read More »Lady FINGERS and Tea?
Israeli artist Ronit Baranga knows exactly how to scare the crap out of dinner guests. These dinnerware are laden with creepy mouths (with teeth) and fingers of the unknown. I don’t know what’s creepier, the finger teacups or the those damn Jabbawockeez masks. Anywho, is it me or are all the mouths …

The Triangle of Bears is an etsy store full of unusual leather and felt trinkets. Some of it is cool and some of it is down right strange, which I like. Take the teeth pouch. Really, the gold tooth is the best part. But, I bet you could carry your retainer …
Read More »The Power of Fats by Sophie Limin Han
London College of Fashion student, Sophie (Limin) Han was meant to “celebrate the confidence of different sizes of women in modern age” through her collection named ‘The Power of Fats’. It should have been named the ‘Kirstie Alley’ collection. I mean, are those ziplocked ham sammich’s as a skirt?? That’s …

This is the Ilanio fashion show at the Supreme Beings fashion show at San Francisco’s SOMArts center this past March. I have to say I had a Hot Topic flashback with the spiked rubber tumor dress because it totally looks like this backpack my friend (and a million other emo/goth ravers) used to …

Ever wanted to go out in style and couldn’t find the raddest coffin that sums you up? Check out “Boxed: Fabulous Coffins from the UK to Ghana” in London. They were on display this past January, so I’m pretty sure they’re not there anymore but you can see the pictures here. Everything …
