Vecona Victorian gothic spiderweb corsetBurton-striped keys. Eyeballs peering from within the petals of roses. Garter brooches, Elizabethan ruff collars, teacup rings: this catalog is all delicate antiquity splattered up just a bit with anatomical hearts, disembodied doll parts, and skeleton bones. The clothing is gothic Victoriana with dollops of tattoo and 80’s fash, and custom is welcome. Thanks, Sara!

Halo Designs dreadfallsThis site is split into hairables and wearables, all of it extreme and colorful. Dreads of synth and yarn and plastic, candystriped and clashed and even frankenstein-stitched, and the add-on page features beaded tulle dreads along with rexlace. Fringes and clip-in extensions are also to be found over here. On the other side, there’s a corsetting/haltering service for oversized t-shirts, totes and messengers, cowboy hats, and a bit of jewelry including creepy little blood drip bags. Cosmetic pigments, too.

Smarmy Clothes pirate dressT-shirt reconstruction that blends pinup and punk in swingy tiered skirts, ruffled pencil silhouettes, corsetty bodices, hoodies, and retro halters, with some 80’s metallic panels appearing here and there. The Misfits, the Nightmare Before Christmas, Rob Zombie, G.G. Allin, Bettie Page, and the Horrorpops are among the design themes you’re likely to find here, although tartan, tiger stripes, and batty mesh are sometimes used on their own, and almost everything is made one of a kind. Custom sometimes available, and wholesale discounts are offered to rollerderby teams.
