Remember the squid hat that Jill and Miss C posted? Well, I found a dress to match: behold the octodress by VECONA, as displayed in their Cabaret Gothique fashion show in Bruges last month. Via jwz.

    Boing Boing have never had an original idea in their lives.

    As for the dress, interesting. The girl in it… Gorgeous! I’d walk over hot coals just to kiss her hand.

    Aw, I like Boing Boing, and I think Cory Doctorow does a fine job there. And to be fair, both of us got it from jwz (which is credited by BB as well).

    Very Cthulhu-esque in its idea. She’d make a great bride to our evil lord who sleeps in the deep.

    Fifteen years ago, I might have worn something like that. Naw, who am I kidding? Not even fifteen years ago.
