the above looks like a cross between aphex twin and momus.

Nah, just momus, aged 7. He'd probably kill for that outfit now though.

good god, teeny, that's hot!!!

(this is one of the many nice things about being in a band... you automatically have a place to wear all those clothes that are too sexy/outrageous/stupid (delete as applicable) to wear any place else.)

Kim, I'll buy you a drink if you wear that to the next FAP.

No Mark, that is not me (note thread title: clothes you would like to wear (kinda) but can't or dursn't ).

I did used to have that haircut a while back but now my hair is short and blonde.

― toraneko (toraneko), Wednesday, 4 December 2002 03:57 (twenty-three years ago)

Short and blonde? We've not seen a photo since this change! This isn't just for some middle-aged interweb perv reason, it's, er, um...

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 4 December 2002 13:05 (twenty-three years ago)

It's not so much that I'm leery of wearing a dress like this, just that I have no prospect of ever having to dress up so formally.

He is the exact opposite of my cat, actually. I mean, like, they are the ying and yang of cathood. It kind of bothered me and I ignored it a bit.

That's really fucking well composed though. Whenever I used to do photography and take photos like that, they'd come out with like everyone blurry or like a big huge eye in the way. Or I'd stick my finger in the lens.

xpost--WHOA. You totally should do that.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 20:32 (twenty-three years ago)

That looks so impossibly hard to do. You absolutely have to.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 20:32 (twenty-three years ago)

I think I'm going to leave that look to the professionals. Still, maybe I could do an 'S'.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 21 August 2003 20:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Maybe you could go to the salon and they could do it for you. Actually I think the 'S' would be harder because it's more curvy than the 'G'.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 20:48 (twenty-three years ago)

I still haven't worn that skull-and-crossbones tee for over a year! :(

I always wanted Bowie's shiny I-have-no-idea-what-space-age-fabric-it-was-made-of shirt that he wore on the Outside tour, but was vividly aware that if you broke down "being able to get away with wearing this" into discrete prerequisites, I fulfilled none of them except "possesses sunglasses such as to provide protection from accidentally blinding oneself when passing a reflective surface" and "does not wither when attracting attention."

If I had stick thin legs, I would wear crazy patterned and bright pants with solid coloured shirts, instead of the other way around as I do now. Having striped pants look good on me is a frequent daydream. Darned spoil-sport curves!

There should be a FAP where you're not allowed in unless you dress in yr can't/daren't clothes.

Then each person can tell all their IRL friends that they didn't _want_ to dress that way, ohe no, but they _had_ to, cos all those freaky ILXors made them.

I would also TOTALLY wear that latext/PVC tee and shorts teeny posted upthread, but I need to lose weight first! :/

Sigh. It's quite similar to a frock coat I already have (though that is brown and gold, not blue and silver) but mainly, I just wish I still had the body to carry off trousers like that. Oh yes, and the money to afford ballenwhatever

I can't see that pic, Kate.

I have a green dress like the vintage pattern J.lu posted up above, but sadly I have nowhere to wear it.
