LOOKS GOOD!: LOOK GOOD!

They tell me fashion won't love me back, and never to spend invisible money that I need to save, but look at all this! Imagine how good I'd look...

SEA URCHIN DRESS: 145.00

Good grief, I LOVE RawHemline. Not only is this Aussie uber communicative, look at these pieces! I do believe this, the Sea Urchin Dress, encapsulates the sort of feeling that each piece is conceived of. I would venture to call this feel a cross between delicacy and earthiness. Wearable fantasies. Absolutely romantic, and with that elven edge. If you check out her blog, and the shop, you'll totally make the Dark Crystal/Last Unicorn connection as though it was something on the tip of your tongue when you first saw the dress here. TO DIE FOR. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Also- she has been underselling herself! Super reasonable cost. Urchin is one of the most expensive pieces available.

ArtLab is a fashion design and fine arts studio based in New York City. ArtLab is run by one individual who studied Fashion Design at both F.I.T., Parson's School of Design as well as Fine Arts at Brooklyn College. She is inspired by industrial landscapes, abandoned spaces, and her dreams. She makes dope clothing from beyond the present in a realistic way, but goddamn! How can I actually justify spending so much on avant garde garments while not living someone remotely reminiscent of New York or London?

This dress, is fucking intricate, cosmic, and realistically futuristic.
The spiral print and allover slits with rolled edges make it look as though your body's just come from somewhere extraterrestrial. Asymmetrical neckline = this season's lil' deuce coup. Elbow-length sleeve = superbly flattering. Oh, and she's lined with this sheer black fabric that shows beneath the slits. T'die for.
