truebluemeandyou: Halloween & Cosplay DIYs

For those into avant-garde fashion, this ‘rib-cage’ top should command your immediate attention. It was originally designed by Japanese illustrator Tetzco for a collection of illustrations he called ‘Internal Organ Neurosis’.

The drawings incorporated bones, muscles, internal organs, blood vessels and various other body parts to produce some ingenious and rather out-of-this-world clothing.

They, in turn, inspired a Japanese photographer who goes by the moniker TRMN. She took it upon herself to transform one of Tetzco’s illustrations, titled Rib Blouse, into an anatomical reality.

Hand formed leather skull clutch bag purse. The leather is formed and tempered to keep its shape. It also has fiberglass/resin enforcement where needed. Hand stitching finished off the borders where the 2 half’s meet. A magnetic clasp holds the skull together and it is lined with a dense felt.  This one has been dyed OX Blood. Please make sure you understand that it is NOT red. This version uses brass plated hardware with a leather straps. Other colors and versions will be available including red, natural leather and possibly a demon skull version. The measurements are about 6 1/2 high, 7/12 front to back and 5 inches at its widest point. Very close to a full size human skull. I must point this out. This is first and foremost a work of art. It will hold small items but I do not advise packing it like a regular purse.
