I'm disgusted; shame on you Japan! By the by, I have nothing to say to someone who is not disturbed by these. I'm sorry but Ronald McDonald (who has always been a downright creepy, if not pedophilic, clown) suddenly transforming into beautiful people is beyond unnerving. It's repulsive.

"Five of the world’s top pastry chefs make the world’s finest chocolates that you can not only eat, but wear. Each competitor designs an evening dress made out of chocolate for a chance to win $10,000. If they want to stay in the running to win their dress has to make it on to a live model and through a real runway show. This competition pushes each chef’s creative limit as they not only test their chocolate skills, but also their sewing and fashion design knowledge." -Food NetworkSo this is on TV right now.
I'm not watching it currently but I will for the outcome - apparently there will be models who have to go on the catwalk with the contestants dresses. I'm very intrigued lol. What intrigues me even more is what I found after looking this up. Sorry Food Network, the chocolate runway idea isn't anything new. In fact, it's been done quite a few times. There was a runway collaboration with Hershey's, recently there was a show in Shanghai where models were adorned with chocolate pieces as well, even ANTM had pieces with chocolate! I mean really, just googling anything from chocolate runway to chocolate couture will come up with a wide range of results. I wonder what's next, Flying Spaghetti Monster dresses?
Anyway, here's a video of some chococlothes.
edit Just saw the final products. They made a flapper girl dress completely out of chocolate and made it look like beadwork. It was actually really cool and technical, I appreciated it. I'm still skeptical towards all this foodfashion though. I mean, if something comes out really nice it's just a shame to watch it either melt, decay, or be eaten.
Mail Time.
Who doesn't love getting things in the mail? While I was expecting Teen Vogue's next issue (especially after seeing Mia's shots up on the website - they were lovely and whimsical but I'm sorry they just do not compete with Tim Walker's tribute to Burton but I guess that's aside the point and perhaps slightly biased) I was excited to also receive my new art history textbook! All of last year I used Gardner's Art Through The Ages so we'll see how this one matches up. If anything I hope it offers some information I did not already know / elaborates on things more. I mean in the end it wasn't that much of a lost, I hit up a blowout sale at a warehouse and got this hundred dollar plus textbook for forty...and new at that! I mean it was slightly damaged with shipping but nothing substantial. It still has that lovely new book smell. Ah. And now for a crappy video~!

my favorite.
Since everyone and their uncle has already covered S10 I'm not even going to bother.
However this dress swept into my heart and secured itself as one of my favorites of McQueen's - well okay that's saying a lot. Maybe my favorite as of late. I just adore the colors, translucency (I mean some parts don't even seem to be fabric but some sort of sciencefiction computer projection, the fabric is just amazing!), and the slight signs of an octopus - one of my favorite sea creatures. RIP Atlantis. McQueen, you did it justice.
Deer oh deer.
