CrisisWear

Cyber separates for men and women, where neon-traced futuristic silhouettes drift into psy earthtones and a little bit of steampunk-blendable pinstriping. Cowl necked vests, flared skirts, gartered legwarmers, riveted three-quarter pants, reflective detailing throughout, and best of all, stylish little pockets for the storage of small essentials while dancing.

Wild Gasmasks

lilah wild — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 03:12:30 +0000

Fetish meets cyber for a rendezvous with pagan. The apocalyptic staple is turned in a more primal direction with the addition of animal faces, where breathing hoses are added to the stern black and gold visage of Anubis. Horses, donkeys, all kinds of painted cats, done full-face or completely covering the head. Custom welcome. Thanks, Sara!

FetishBitch Clubwear

This site specializes in “raunchi rave outfits” – in other words, bikinis with halter tops, bikinis with tiny little skirts, bikinis with hotshorts, bikinis bright with neon and stripes and slashes and often matchable with legwarmers and gauntlets. Also hooded minidresses and rompers, tutus, shrugs, garters, and Stargazer hair color and makeup.

Absolutely psychotic watches where the little LED lights do more than just circle prettily around on your wrist – they demand interpretation to tell you the time. Operating guides posted in the product descriptions walk you through the process, which is fairly easy once you get the hang of it, and also don’t miss the totally indoostrial bracelets. Thanks, TurquoiseRaven!

Guapo Fashion

lilah wild — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 02:55:00 +0000

Cyber-psy clothing from SpaceTribe and Niceone: jackets with pixie hoods and cargo pockets and spikes up the arms, pants decorated with neon piping or zipping open to expose bright panels, mandala tees, slashed tops, self-buckling wrap skirts, pocket belts, holster bags, good stuff whether your taste runs towards sacred geometry or space guns, and if you can’t make up your mind, this is the first place we’ve seen crosspollinate D-rings with fractals.

RomWear

lilah wild — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 22:11:00 +0000

Romulan garb, straight from the costume designers of 2009’s Star Trek, “custom made just as if they were for the lead actors in the film” and quite blendable with cyber/playa warrior wardobes. High-collared vests and jackets trimmed with angled piping, ruched wrap tops and loose-fitting pants continuing the dark spacey mood, and some sinister tabi to finish it off. Thanks, Debauched Sage!

Ego Assassin

lilah wild — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 20:20:00 +0000

Latex fancy dress for men and women that plays with elements of cyber and Japanese style and whatever else their seasonal whims feel like, which at the moment is rockstarred. Transparency is a favored ingredient, as are slashing, racer stripes, and outbursts of circuit board printing, and the accessories section flaunts neoprene holsters, latex-trimmed bondage cuffs, and shiny shiny gloves.

High Clothing

lilah wild — Sat, 30 May 2009 02:14:52 +0000

Psywear for men and women, grabbing the practicality of festival duds and running off into cyber. Lots of colorblocking, often enticingly squiggly: pixie-jagged tops, druid hoods, self-buckling skirts, pants slapped with cargo pockets and traced with neon, singlets and sweaters. And some spacey-bright pocket belts made to coordinate.

Cypherlox

lilah wild — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 10:05:00 +0000

A team of Ohio extensionists who have taken their creations online and offer braid-your-own dreadfalls in double-ended and single-looped options. The hairpieces are full of rexlace, crin, foam, and tubing, or silky curls for boingey ringlets, and materials are offered separately for DIY projects. They also carry cyber goggles, headbands, clip-in streaks and fringes, and Special Effects dye.

Mental Peace

lilah wild — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 23:26:00 +0000

A blacklight hybrid of 70’s mushroomy bongshop psychedelia and modern tribal knotworked mandalas, the kind of labyrinthine designs made for losing your eyes in. Deep space, the elements, emotions rendered abstract and bursting with color, available on tees, hoodies, tanks, and dresses, with some of them featuring the neato effect of emerging only in abnormal light.

Odium Clothing

lilah wild — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 11:25:00 +0000

Goth in all its various manifestations: the black widow ballgown. The retro mermaid silhouette. The punky workshirt/waitress number. The witchy tattered dress. The lolita mini. The tight strapless hug of PVC. The hallmarks of bondage straps and cyber neon and corset lacing and polka dots and Victorian poofery all come into play, but the look is always dark. There’s a decent amount of stuff for the guys, and other sections include cyber stuff, fake hair, footwear, cosmetics, miscellaneous accessories, and promwear for creatures of the night.

Fetish Falls

lilah wild — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 08:36:00 +0000

Besides readymade and custom cyberlox – and all lengths of wigs – this site is stocked with all kinds of clubby little accessories. Corsets and some gothic lolita dresses, Demonia bags, spiked collars, goggles and shades, body jewelry, gloves and stockings, gas masks and eyepatches, steampunk costume hats, glittery masks, pointy little horns, and Bloody Mary cosmetics, which include zombie makeup kits.

Saturn Return

lilah wild — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 21:54:00 +0000

A gathering of futuristic brands, mostly cyber with some psy and just a touch of bondage: Catch 23, Space Tribe, Battery Organic, Gado Gado, Hikari, Hexagon, Nubia/Vodabox, Queen of Darkness, and a few other miscellaneous people. Accessories include Mea Culpa hairfalls, Pamela Mann hosiery, Stargazer cosmetics and dye, Wildcat contact lenses, and apparently Cyberdog’s started doing microchip boxers.
