Those old vampires: mormons!

More about vampires...

Did you know that in the 1920's and 1930's, more than 30 films came out of Britain which depicted Mormons as evil vampiric perverts?


The films, shown only in burlesque houses due to their terrifyingly honest nature, often portrayed a Mormon villain who used mesmeric power to seduce young girls into becoming his polygamous sex slaves. "Trapped by the Mormons" (1922), the most successful of these films, was so popular that it spawned the sequel, "Married to a Mormon". (www.myfilm.com/2005_10_01_archive.html)

Vampires video!!!


One of my college friends have just sent me the pics from my second year at college. I completely forgot about that video! I made a winter, 18th century style collection: very baroque, inspired by the nature. However, the destiny keeps dragging me back to the dark somehow and the collection turned out to be dramatic, in the obscure way. The graphic designer who made the video was this kind of guy who was into japanese, manga, gothic stuff so he shooted the video adding an obscure ambient to it. The video was shooted with the song "How Soon Is Now?" by the Smiths (the T.V. series version, which is not as great as the original one). The location where it was shooted was a very gorgeous baroque room, with burgundy jaquard walls and baroque furniture that dated back from the 18th century. It also had a bed that was a gift from Napoleon (I think), it´s a shame I didn´t take a proper picture of it. I really regret it now......
Here are some more photos of the video shoot. Hope you like them.....

I´m becoming a vampire......help! help!

I am currently doing my final year´s proyect. (My very last chapter of my horrific fashion degree). I could describe it as tiring and stressful, but those adjectives wouldn´t be the exact words to describe the real situation. If you work in Fashion OR still studying, you would have an idea of what I´m talking about...
THE VAMPIRIZING EFFECT OF FINISHING YOUR PROJECT...ON TIME!!


You start to hide from the daylight and the clocks as a very desperate attempt to stop the time or get away from it....Your nights, those precious relaxing moments long time ago, become your working shifts until the daylight appears again. After hours and hours of euphoric work that never seems to end, you start to think you´re immortal but it´s not because your strength but the illegal amount of caffeine that is swimming within your blood veins.
You don´t need to wait long until you start to see the effects on your face: deep purple bags under your eyes, your face (once white, or "yellowy-I´m sick of typhus like" in my case) turns into a pale-translucent shade, and your teeth....yes! they start to get suspiciously more prominent and sharp than usual due to grinding your teeth (an unmistakeable very first sign of a future hysterical crisis, weeping included).
Now, this is what REALLY fashion is about. (Non-gothic fashion too)
