Heads will turn, twist and roll..

Let's play some Yeah Yeah Yeahs, shall we?

With all the show porn posts out there, I thought I'd entertain you with a bit of Sunday night/Monday morning costume porn post. So whether you're reading this at the end of a lazy Sunday evening, or you're waking up cranky on a Monday morning, this should brighten your day. Well, it better do anyway, or else......

I first heard about Christian Joy when I googled about Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeah's stage costumes. She must have one of the best stage costumes...ever...maybe going head to head with Roisin Murphy. Joy received no formal training and started out creating DIY tees, and moved on to making supercreative costumes for the likes of Karen O.

Read this article about what Karen O has to say about Christian Joy's designs. Go on...

Now for the costume porn...
PS: Fiona, these are dedicated to you.

Joy also has a clothing range, and I fell in love with the lookbook. It's not really modelled in the sense of "pose" and "shoot". It's more like looking through a very cool person's photo album of their crazy days out.

Ooh, love Karen O so so much! She was wearing the purple and yellow catsuit when I saw YYYs at Electric Picnic in '06. Her costumes are so awesome.

Thanks for introducing me to this talented designer! I love the lookbook photos. Of course, I hang out with mustached accordion players and carry pink balloons on my day off :)
