You know, we were going to make witty observations about the inclusion of a classic horror figure in a clothing catalog but we just can't bring ourselves to do it. Pyramid helmets? Odeur? Lookbook? This might be our blogger sweatpants talking, but high fashion is impossibly dumb.

Hey, shoving spears and peeling skin pay can only stretch so far. Guy's gotta make a living.
Kinsey @ Jun 21st 2009 4:45PM
I think its just a graphic covering there faces
The Dark Wayne @ Jun 21st 2009 5:03PM
well, it's sorta faded, looks like a veil.

Thats the point with high fashion, you can't just steal from some other form of media without screwing with it.

I guess this is when someone comes in going:
OMGZORZ, THIZ IZ NUT NEWZ, CURSE JOYSTICK AND ITZ LAK OV INTELEGENT AND PROPOR NEWZ
Well, before you do think about saying it, take a hike.
As for the article, there's something stylish about it, although it reminds me sort of part of a widow's black outfit.

Nut news? Is that news about the latest game to feature t-bagging?
Maverick Saturn @ Jun 21st 2009 5:03PM
Nuts magazine of course :D
I'd post the link, but there are minors, lol

Newz is a legume, not a nut!

Look at the last entry under "COSTUME NATIONAL SPRING/SUMMER 2010 HOMME/MEN ". The guy looks like Adrian Monk with a little Mr. Bean added in for good measure.
Also, am I the only one who thinks the guy above and to the left of him (Mr. Bean/Monk) looks like a homeless version of The Joker?

Who better for a fashion show when you run out of androgynous 80s serial killers than Mr. Bean? What could possibly go wrong?

I think it looks like the helmet from MDK. Anyone? Anyone else played MDK or MDK2?
j.howlett @ Jun 21st 2009 5:19PM
i think that was more round
Zexion_VI @ Jun 21st 2009 5:27PM
Pretty hot... I wonder how much those helmets go for. I would love to torture sexy Nurses...
PojoMofo @ Jun 21st 2009 5:30PM
So does this "hat" come with the spear to impale yourself, or is that sold seperately??
sony boy @ Jun 21st 2009 5:34PM
what's next? Kratos wearing a tie?
CH3BURASHKA @ Jun 21st 2009 6:02PM
Wasn't there a Kratos in a suit and tie with a briefcase reference in the podcast? If not, there should've been.
devilsei @ Jun 21st 2009 7:27PM
Yeah, sorry Sony but its been done already. Try playing God of War, one of the unlockable costumes IS him in a business suit, with the blades of chaos replaced with a set of suitcases.
Sly @ Jun 21st 2009 8:08PM
kratos potato is still my favorite.
Sly @ Jun 21st 2009 8:20PM
oh, and for devilsei's comment, here's the link.

Pyramid Head Party at my house!

Those crazy Swedes! I would wear that just to fuck with people.
psxman @ Jun 21st 2009 6:36PM
If anyone asks, it's a rain-hat for when you're busking with your saxophone.
(Also, Animal Collective are excellence)

AC is great. I saw them at Pitchfork Festival last year. They were quite amazing.

There was some guy that used to take photos of models with large triangles or cones covering their faces or top portion of their body. His name escapes me, but he was in some documentary on HBO. Was like either in the late 80s or early 90s in New York-- probably around the whole triangle/paint splatter art phase. Anyway, I've seen this before...

Those heads glow in the dark. It's so awesome.

David @ Jun 22nd 2009 7:14AM
Um, I think the triangles are a recurring theme in the collection. I don't think Pyramid Head (or video games) has anything to do with it. I wish, though.
Enosoma @ Jun 22nd 2009 1:12PM
I'm not entirely certain that the "pyramid" hat is actually there. Either that, or their model is the same person for every picture. And he's standing in the EXACT SAME POSITION for every outfit.
Look at the pock marks on the walls. The "pyramid" hat never moves. It's always in the EXACT SAME POSITION. Even when the person's body has shifted.
