Penelope: well at least i’ll be superficially confident

Shyama Rose’s Assymetrical Labcoat, in White Italian Leather

A dear friend of mine, Shyama Rose (prounounced “shawm-ah”), is a nascent-yet-accomplished upcoming fashion designer in Seattle, and (soon) New York City. I’d like to highlight this piece of hers because I cannot fathom how such a striking, quality design could be put-together by hand, and by someone without traditional Fashion School training. Some people just have a knack (and an eye) for good design, and she’s one of them:

This isn’t her first time working with leather, and nowadays, people stop her on the street asking her where she got her unique jacket, and after telling them she made it herself, she gets commissioned to create new bespoke pieces right then and there. It’s really amazing what raw talent, inspiration, and a little perspiration can do for you. It’s worked wonders for her. Shyama Rose, upcoming fashion designer, I commend you.

If you can identify what Chiara is holding above her head, you get two points.

Shyama Rose on getting dressed

“Put a man in an expensive suit and he feels as though he is Hank Rearden. Show a woman how beautiful she looks in a wedding gown and she feels validated. Getting dressed doesn’t have to be a pesky nuisance. It doesn’t have to be an indulgence of the superficial. It can be a tool of progression.”

Porcelain Dolls

These PNB danseuses look like porcelain dolls that are about to fall over and break into pieces:

Hammerpants Now At TopShop

If hammerpants weren’t a wardrobe staple they wouldn’t sell them at TopShop. Now excuse me while I take tiny jumps sideways away from this foolishness.

Cool Sweater

Came upon this in some random photo album on Facebook while wasting time: the coolest vest ever.  Okay.  Maybe it would be cooler if it was Luigi (from Super Mario Bros.) instead of a pirate.  Still, good attempt:
