The Avianettes: Owl


Some people like to bemoan the prevalence of owls in current culture. I like to bemoan the prevalence of these people. There is perhaps more questionable uses of owls recently but they were very popular in the 60s and 70s too, which is actually the cause of a lot of their current popularity seen in the trends of retro and vintage decor and fashion.

But owls are not awesome because they are in fashion now, then or otherwise. Owls are awesome because OWLS-are-AWESOME.

Have you ever looked an owl in the eyes? Chilling. That shit is pure magic.

Shell Shock Couture

I'm obsessed with fashion far more deeply than most people know. And though I'm interested in all levels from ready-to-wear to couture I'm drawn towards the more drastic and dramatic designers like Viktor and Rolf, Christopher Kane, Jeremy Laing and Alexander Mcqueen. I love details. Any time I can get lost in drawing patterns or textures I'm overjoyed. You can see some of that here. Accessories are important. Cuffs, helmets, hats, goggles, boots. All are welcomed with open arms.
