Clothing by Skingraft Designs, photo by Krista Benson

If you want to dress like a rockstar and have the bank for it, you have to check out Skingraft Designs. My favs are from the photoshoot “Found Fables” shot by Krista Benson of Tiny Dragon Productions. They’re clothing is a darkly delicious combination of Road Warrior/Victoriana, all leather and lace and guaranteed to turn heads.  All I know about the folks at Skingraft is that they’re a “wild pack of wolves terrorizing Los Angeles”. I believe it.

Focusing on urban decay his abandoned mental institutions, state hospitals and other buildings show the ruins as both oddly beautiful and starkly horrific at the same time.

The photographs of Robert and Shana ParkeHarrision tell a story of man’s attempt to control nature. Often told with stark monochromatic images, each photograph pulls the viewer into a metaphorical reality where we’re left to contemplate our effect on the world around us.
