effed up,
vinyl toys,

British artist (it seems it’s always the British) Nancy Farmer has designed a series of greeting cards with Barbie doing normal things with gimps,whips, leather and latex. You know, like, hanging out listening to music with a gimp as a cocktail hostess. Or Barbie having afternoon tea on some chick’s back. Or like chaining and beating people up. You know the usual crap. I wonder what holiday or occasion these greeting cards would be perfect for…. how about “Happy Birthday ” to my overpaid Dominatrix? Or “A little thank you note for taking care of my gimp while I went away”. Or “how about a Tea Party?! You bring the the tea, I’ll bring the table.. and gimp”. It’s pretty endless! On a side note, I dig Barbie’s goth makeup.
PS- These are the more tame photos I posted.

awesome,
bad ass 
British newcomer, Gemma Slack, has designed a sexy collection perfect for combat. With chest plates and metal chain linked vests, this collection reflects on bondage and medieval themes without teetering on the side of cheezy goth store Hot Topic. That chain vest looks like something Houdini would wear. The back bone dress is my favorite! It looks scorpion-ish! Like early Alexander McQueen, Slack is one to watch and this is only the beginning! Check out her complete collection at her site here.
PS - A little trivia- Slack hails from Sheffield, UK- the same city that gave us The Human League! Yay! (I love that bouncing red ball)
