    I have no idea what these costumes were about. They were standing on a corner when I first saw them. By the time I got the camera out, they had crossed the street and were running--it had started to rain.

    Wow. That is interesting. Reminds me of Lady Gaga somehow. Maybe they are some of her fans who she calls her little monsters.

    The weirdest part is they are barefoot!
     
  10. Yes, I thought of cousin It too - an Addams Family show perhaps? Doesn't explain why there are two of them.

    Great link Linda - amazing costumes. Nick Cave (one of Melbourne's favourite sons) is highly creative but these have surprised me.

    The costumes were off-white and the fringe hung over the faces.

    These shoes reminded me of this thread.
    The fact the insole is also hairy gives me the creeps.
     
  16. What strikes me as odd, is that no one is looking at them as if they are unusual.

    Melanie,
    Those shoes really are creepy.
     
  18. Well this entire thread has been wonderfully amusing. Those Human Afghan Hound Cousin It people are quite beautiful, in a weird and wacky way. Unlike those clogs, which are just creepy.

    I was in discussion the other day about how the hairy jumper (or sweater for those outside of the UK) appears to be making a come back here. Topshop and most of the major women's chainstores are selling the 80's style 'eyelash' yarn tops in any colour you can imagine. I can't imagine ever wearing one...personally!
