I am largely tone deaf to high-end fashion, but this is just... adorable.
Sort of in the way Hello Kitty used to be but isn't anymore.
There go all my preconceptions about the town of Brugge.
A living version of those Wallacavage chandeliers BB posted once.
Careful, that beak is sharp!
I...I'll just go have a wee lie-down now...
Wooster: Why not Brugge? Look at all the lace.
Isn't it a fashion faux-pas to wear tentacles after Labour Day?
takuan! a female after yer very own, errr,...heart?
I have visions of teeny boppers walking around in squid skirts with prehensile tentacles controlled by neural networks woven into the belt.
They would use them to shoplift access tokens for popular media streams, sim cards for augmented role playing games and beer.
Schools would ban them; they would be a hip media menace for a season. Middle aged women will start taking classes to learn how to wear tentacles, and will discover that while anyone can buy a squid skirt and put it on learning to do anything more than make the tentacles twitch lasciviously takes a degree of practice and fine motor control that is beyond most people's reach.
//OK, I'm saving that locally, there's a story in there somewhere.
Oh, be still my heart! I've been hoping someone would do this since I first fell in love with this Darla Teagarden photo:

It's just the thing to wear with my lovely black & red octopus hat!
@ #11 Takuan:
Inferior human organs!

As she came down the the bordello's grand staircase, he turned and ran screaming into the night, and that was the last anyone ever saw of the mysterious Capt. Nemo.
P.S. She'll never go DDWFTTW!
heh.... squeedlyspooch. I miss Zim... I think my wee one needs that goodness on DVD. What's J. Vasquez up to lately, anyway I wonder?
And is it just me, or does this remind me of Rasputina? And come to think of it, so does all the steampunk stuff, too in a weird way.
Takuan, read the "Dilvish the Damned" stories.
Bees. There were bees once in her valley...

Like the tentacles, hate the tiny little hat.
I know all you grown-up teeny goths have really sold yourselves on the whole [___]-punk Victoriana thing, which I totally respect, but come on. Tiny hats for women? Really?
Marry me, o Squid Princess, in our Church of thee FSM, under the full moon's light, and touch me with your noodly appendages.
the hat in #12 is lovely then.
Dilvish... not since The Bells of Shoredan I think. Must find those.
The treasure-skeleton-candelabra and bat-squirrel-jackalope hats were a little too weird for me, but the small crown in the above picture reminds me very much of one worn by the bride at a Norwegian wedding. As an added bonus, they all seem to come with a frighteningly large, weapons-grade hatpin to keep it in place (further adding to the awesome).
Very Ursula ;)
Nifty! And I so want to believe that is really all her own hair.
Hi Noelegy, as I'm the model on this picture, I just wanted to let you know that it's indeed my own hair you're seeing :)
