from silver latex like leggings to....

it was sort of inevitable i feel, you know you can almost plot some fashion trends? first it was the silver metallic leggings from AA, which were only for the truely adventurous and long skinny legged. then the super glossy black ones which have now become as much as a fashion staple as blue jeans in some parts of the world.

then if you look closely leggings have started to change, mixing and matching materials, colors and contrasts. meanwhile a whole slew of music diva's and bands went positively ASFR in their onstage personas. then designers they got printing working correctly so thanks to Rotwang's keen eagle eyes (or should that be robot eyes) there will shortly be ‘Maria’ Robot Leggings brought to you by Dark Horse.

these leggings were inspired by the Fritz Lang, 1920’s sci-fi movie Metropolis. they are poly-stretch and will be released as part of their Spring 2010 collection. so far any google investigating has only provided the same set of photo's and quotes. the designers site is currently in rebuild limbo.

keep your eyes peeled in fashion magazines as they're bound to start appearing with some exceptionally kinky high heeled shoes (or so i hope).

now when will there be a top made to match it?

for any major or budding latex designers out there i do have a wonderful folder full of images of the Thierry Mugler famed robot suit if you would like to develop a better version in latex.
