Water: Magnified Fluidity in Motion

2014-04-16T14:10:00.000-07:00

There's fashion photography. And then there's underwater fashion photography.

The effects of adding even a little bit of H20 does amazing things to a photo's WOW factor. Curiously...no one's wearing goggles.

All for the amazing effects you'll see in some of the coolest underwater fashion photos we've scoured from ze Web.

Amazing, isn't it?

By the way, we are looking forward to designing a water-inspired piece as part of our upcoming pieces. Without the underwater photog...

Cue the collective "awww"

Awwwww....

Peeping through the Jungle

2014-04-14T13:08:00.000-07:00

Featured Item: Our "Bamboo Dress" (hand-painted to mimic bamboo silhouettes)

Shall we take a walk in the jungle?

One of the subthemes we wanted to explore was the essence of trees...bamboo to be exact.

Wait! Turns out...bamboo's actually a type of GRASS not tree.

Oh...and don't underestimate its health benefits for our little Earth: our lanky friends are capable of releasing 35% more oxygen than an average tree. Take that. Tree.

Awesome pics of Trees/bamboo:

Mossy Fuzzy Moss

2014-04-04T12:44:00.001-07:00

Moss, moss, moss, and moss.

While not the exact focus of our upcoming collection, the natural beauty of the Bryophyta division members have rendered them a deep place in our warm fuzzy hearts.

Counting up to about 12,000 different species, the members of the Bryophyta moss division tend to grow in moist conditions, most of them requiring dampness and shade.

Because of the species' ability to adapt and its easiness to grow( it only requires a bit of moisture and sunlight), we urbaners have even witnessed moss growing in between concrete stones and on buildings.

For now though, let's concentrate on the natural beauty of our complex fuzzy friends.

Glory and Pain Lie Ahead: An Epic Battle for Life

2014-03-28T11:39:00.000-07:00

We may find ourselves at the ledge-- should we turn back down to a path of comfort, or shall we instead jump into the fire and follow upon our hearts and passion?

We only have but one life to live on this Earth. We choose to go down the uncharted path.

No midlife crisis for us.

Glory and epic battles lie ahead! Let's go!

Gotta get our hands on one of these.

Featuring our "Moonrocks" shirt.

One of the many pieces we've created for our 2014 interstellar collection, "Moonrocks" was inspired by the small gravel pieces featured in one of NASA's Apollo 11 photos.

Cosmos Galaxy Collection Coming Soon...after a break of chocolate!

2014-03-04T22:22:00.000-08:00

We're slugging...slugging...sluggishly through our pieces.

Fun fact: For every piece in our collection we finish, we reward ourselves by eating a whole bar of

Who says we can't go cosmo with chocolate?

Pretty soon, we start noticing some of the pieces we've designed have started looking like cookies and cream concoctions.

Mmm...Show you when we're done! ^O^

As referenced by our sister entity Girl Astroid, Anna Sui and Tibi, we hail you.

As newborns conceived(yes, conceived...sss....) into an already burgeoning and churning industry, we have nowhere else to look but up.

Tibi, we really urge you to dub the name "Uranus Blue" for the baby blue your models sported on your Fall 2014 RTW Runway.

Greetings Earthlings!

We come bearing own level of eccentricity. Zoinks!

We start with no name, no face.

We invite you to learn with us, to grow with us, to experience life with us. Together, we are Omninaut.
