i was reading Weekly Dig (boston's free weekly entertainment mag) and a really short article about eyelashes caught my attention! apparently, dutch fashion design duo Viktor and Rolf have done a collaboration with cosmetic store shu uemura consisting of three pairs of couture false eyelashes.
one pair is simply long and beautiful, but the other two are pretty unique. one, which consists of upper and lower lashes, has tiny gold rhombus shapes fitted on for a super glam look. my personal favorite pair looks sort of like paper clips, but the way they suggest eyelashes- with empty space and delicateness that in some ways speaks to drawing- is SO interesting to me. they almost seem like something you would see on an odd old mannequin.
they're really just what you would expect if you heard Viktor & Rolf were doing eyelashes. if you're not familiar with their fashions you should check them out, they do some VERY interesting things.
you can see (or buy, for $95 a pair...) the eyelashes here.
