Are You Ready To Finally Be Somebody?

Mugler’s Spring 1997 Couture collection, also known as “Les Insectes,” is a landmark in the history of fashion, representing not just clothes but a vision of the future inspired by the natural world…

The collection was inspired by insects, their otherworldly forms, and their ability to evoke both fascination and discomfort. Mugler’s work explored how the natural world could be reinterpreted as seductive and almost alien-like armor for the body

Some belated photos from the "Fashioned by Sargent" exhibit at the MFA Boston. My pictures just don't do it justice! I'm not one for hyperbolics, but it literally took my breath away, even with the crowds of people everywhere.

evening dress by the House of Worth (c.1880); owned by Sarah Choate Sears, who Sargent painted in another dress in 1889

reflection of Ellen Terry as Lady Macbeth (1889); costume designed by Alice Comyns Carr and created by Ada Nettleship

evening dress with matching shoes by the House of Worth (c.1895)

Mrs. Charles E. Inches (Louise Pomeroy) (1887); dress made in 1887 and likely altered 1902. Louise was pregnant at the time of her portrait, and if you look very closely, you can see the dress skirt has adjustable panels to accommodate a changing body.

I heart prey animal rage I love when characters are fucking insane with terror

they’ve been forcing us to write “customized notes” on every drink at work and now they’re having store meetings + coaching us on what we can and can’t write bc someone drew a pig on a cop’s coffee and tbh that’s on starbucks for not foreseeing this outcome.

I pray for them
