In the course of developing this little website, I’ve also developed an increasingly soft spot for pop culture in all its forms, especially if it’s tied in with fashion in any way. On seeing these photos on the AnOther website, my soft spot immediately became as squishy and vulnerable as an overripe avocado.
So far, I’ve blogged about the curious case of the Theatre de la Mode fashion dolls, the out-there wackiness of a Disney fashion editorial (Alber Elbaz as a distant cousin of Donald Duck, anyone?) and the unashamed kitschiness of Barbie in the best of 80′s designers. This is up there. It’s one of the hits. One of the good ones.
This is Snoopy and his sister Belle, dressed by different designers as they travel around the world. Taken from the book ‘Snoopy Around the World: Dressed by Fashion Designers’ – Snoopy isn’t one for obscure titles, we can see – it’s cute and weird and of course I immediately bought a second-hand copy from Amazon.
Can the constant buying of books be defined as a substance addiction?
Photos by Alberto Rizzo. You can see more over on the AnOther website.
We need a support group. Bookworms Anonymous? I too have this substance abuse problem. My Amazon wishlist can probably be seen from space.
Same here – I have four full bookshelves in my room. I’m beginning to look like one if those hoarders who eventually dies after a newspaper avalanche. And yet…
You’d want to see my new gaff. Custom built bookshelves from floor to ceiling and I still have more books to put in my office! They do furnish a room…
The Chanel outfit looks like bondage!! O_O Where in the world….?!! ;D
Only in Paree…
