When I went to Berlin in the winter of 2009, I stayed in a shabby little hostel in Friedrichshrain, I did alot of walking around the neighborhood and came upon this minimal tailor/boutique shop called Corisc. The mannequin in the window adorned in rubber got my attention. They sell a variety of rubber adornments including hats, body, wrist and neck ware. It was closed most of the time, but I managed to catch them open and bought the great rubber tie you see below and included a pic of the piggy nun and vixen as well. The woman was very nice and explained to me that her husband worked in tires and they constructed these amazing fashions out of recycled tires, I was amazed and took an instant liking to her, they were off to see Marc Almond in concert that night, it couldn't have gotten better! Now that I have this blahg, I wanted to feature them.

This is not a fashion blog as much as it's focus is anti fashion. Recycling, up-cycling, vintage, costumes, etc. Aesthetics vary, the emphasis here is to explore realms of off beat design and adornment. I will feature a variety of artists as well as my own creations. Look out for what's new in my Etsy shop Condor Cave and other far out sightings and junk from yesteryear.

The Tenderloin Foot Stomper
Be on the look out for this women aged 25-31. Black hair and dark circles under eyes, 5"2 and on the prowl. Been caught wearing these slutty wedges, strutting around San Francisco's seedy Tenderloin District causing havoc and harassing non local tenders. This is her hood and she know's if you don't belong.
