Kariwan's Surreal Hybrid Animal Costumes
References: kariwanz & cakeheadlovesevil
This is just crazy time: I love this brilliantly made surreal octopus-puppy ‘costume’ from Japanese fetish designer Kariwan. Everything about these costumes messes with my mind, starting with the cotton candy nursery colors used on an extremely adult costume. The attention to detail is amazing--the octopus arms even have suckers!
From what they have given away I can assume that Kariwan is a couple who, in their own words, “enjoy playing and dressing in rubber and leather items.”
