Virgin Threads Cigana circus dressA collective of over sixty up-and-coming designers, Virgin Threads is an indie fashion goldmine of fresh talent and tons of original goods. With a few items to give you a taste of each label, this catalog is wonderfully diverse and a lot of fun to browse, where you can find things like the Circus Dress from Cigana, who specializes in elegant reconstruction and really seems to like working with stretch gauze, to gorgeous effect. (The rest of her page is also worth a look if you like tatters. Romantigoths will die over this stuff.) And if you need any more convincing to visit this site, cyberjeans, chainmail rocker cuffs, and disco armwarmers await.
