clothing with skulls on

[subversplat]

Is it the fashion suddenly?

Very very much so

 

[milesy]

yes, the whole sleazy rock n roll look is well in. hence all the leopard and skulls and stuff.

it's a good look, to be fair. always has been, always will

 

[perplexis]

Yes, I own a t-shirt that has sort of a skull on it. This has nothing to do with my desire to keep up with current trends. It is a mere accident.

I resent the proposition implicit in the OP that I own it because it is currently fashionable. GRRRRR!

On celebrity fit/fat club someone had quite a good skull dress. It was possibly wraparound stylee or perhaps not and looked like it had quite a good red, black and green flower pattern on but if you looked closer there were skulls.

Talking of which, has anyone seen the camouflage pattern which is Planet of the Apes type faces? I want it.

 

[fishfingerer]

I have a St.Pauli top and Half Man Half Biscuit's Achtung Bono t-shirt.

Do you mean Bathing Ape stuff? Have you seen Pharrell wearing it? Maybe that's what you mean?

Oooh yes...here you go. Camo=

Eeek...that's a v long link. I hope it works!

 

[Herbsman.]

Not only is it a skull, it's a skull with a mohican! (tis on a t-shirt I've got somewhere, although I'm not quite sure where...)

I've got that t-shirt n'all. 'tis my fave.

I thought skull clothing came back into fashion with kids in 2004, then went out again as it was a bit childish

 

[milesy]

what's wrong with being childish?

 

[subversplat]

Claire's Accessories are doing a range of skull stuff at the moment, which just goes to show how fashionable it is!

(It all breaks in a month though, just in time for the new fashion to be out)

That's where I got me skull earring from.

I've a skirt with camouflage skulls on but it's four years old.

I went to a fashion trade show in Barcelona at the start of the month and every other booth was showing something or other with skulls on. It was overkill a bit.

But I still wear my skirt. The elastics gone a bit tho.

 

[ivebeenhigh]

its the trend though with fashion innit.

whereas there used to be the traditional model of AW and SS with transitional phassing between the two, now, led by Philip Green, each season is 13 and in some cases 26 distinct weeks, with stock availability limited to 4 weeks or so. Where as a style used to last 6 months, they now last a month. As such every one is increasingly dressing more similarly as they are updating thier wardrobes more frequently with identikit trends and looks.

I've stacks of metal stuff but my favourite T-shirt is with the Steve Earle skull.

I rarely wear it as it's quite tatty. I brought it at my very first gig ever in the late 80's.

 

[fishfingerer]

What about this berlin rapper's 'skull hat'. It's fucking silly.

 

[boohoo]

No skulls on clothes for me....they are on loads of tops at the mo and alot of the teenagers I worked with wore clothes with skulls on and although i got asked for ID in the pub at the weekend , I have no aspirations to look like a teenager goth/indie kid/emo.

 

[Tank Girl]

But generally I think skulls look a bit scary.

me too, not as scary and creepy as clowns, but still no good.

though I remember having one of those skull scarves (like grace from BB) quite some time ago - my daughter was gutted that I'd thrown it away.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Yeah, I've got a T-shirt that looks a bit like an old Guns n Roses one. Sort of.

Spanglechick moans about it.

 

[sojourner]

I don't have any clothing with skulls on but I saw plenty in TKMaxx last week.

Really?

Oh well, that's me girl not wearing her black shirt with white skulls on again then

Tsk

 

[sojourner]

my daughter was gutted that I'd thrown it away.

Ha! When I've described some of the clothes I used to wear and have thrown away, my daughter's been gutted too! Although I don't know why she's moaning, I still have all the pvc - skirts, pants, jackets - all either purple, black, red or blue - but no, she wants the stuff I haven't got

 

[Tank Girl]

I'm ruthless with clothes so mine hasn't got a chance of anything good - though mostly my stuff hasn't exactly been cool

whenever your daughter says somethings cool, you should say that you had one just like it

 

[moose]

Do you mean Bathing Ape stuff? Have you seen Pharrell wearing it? Maybe that's what you mean?

I have no idea who Pharrell is a bloke who stands next to me at the football wears it. That's the stuff, thanks

 

[Tank Girl]

pharrell goes to the football?

 

[Tank Girl]

and a chance to post a picture of pharrell

 

[boohoo]

and a chance to post a picture of pharrell

nice....

 

[Tank Girl]

mmmmmmmmmmmmm - he makes my bits feel funny

 

[boohoo]

Got any more Pharrell piccys??

you have good taste lady

 

[spanglechick]

Yeah, I've got a T-shirt that looks a bit like an old Guns n Roses one. Sort of.

Spanglechick moans about it.

because it's horrible. it's a skate/surf type thing, grey t shirt with nasty bright blue skull and playing cards design - i think it also has a snake.

i can confidently say that no matter how desireable skull accessories and clothes become, i shall never be tempted. just nothing about skulls on it excites my shopping gland.

 

[boohoo]

you have good taste lady

Maybe we need a 'Pharrell: not crap/not crap' thread.... we might even consider talking about his music...
