Craziest Corsets

A corset is a garment worn to mold and shape the torso into a desired shape for aesthetic or medical purposes (either for the duration of wearing it, or with a more lasting effect). Both men and women are known to wear corsets, though women are more common wearers.

In recent years, the term "corset" has also been borrowed by the fashion industry to refer to tops which, to varying degrees, mimic the look of traditional corsets without actually acting as one. While these modern corsets and corset tops often feature lacing and/or boning and generally mimic a historical style of corsets, they have very little if any effect on the shape of the wearer's body. Genuine corsets are usually made by a corsetmaker and should be fitted to the individual wearer.Here is the list of craziest corsets.
Heavy Metal Corset



Happy Gilmore, y
 Everything old is new again. Maya Hansen's heavy metal themed corsets are a far cry from the straight-laced undergarments of the Victorian era. Featuring 'Kiss', 'Slayer', ‘Misfits', 'Iron Maiden' and 'Metallica', these corsets are definitely not your grandmother's underwear.

Beer Tab Corset




For the next time you're at Oktoberfest, the beer tab corset. It combines a lot of cool things: recycling, cute accessories, historical clothing and beer. (Link | Via)
Plastic Corset


This amazing corset is from Issey Miyakes 1980 Autumn/Winter collection, it is moulded from red plastic. (Link)

Super Mario Corset


Apparently somebody out there with a serious Mario fetish has decided to create a corset using his likeness. Overed with rare 1980s Super Mario Brothers fabric, this oddity was created by TheVintageDoctor. Complete with a lace-up back with metal grommets, Mario will help you keep your waistline in check in case you gobble down too many 1UP mushrooms. (Link | Via)
Piercing Corset


One of the newest trends in body modification comes in the form of corset piercings. They are a series of surface piercings arranged up the back in two vertical columns. The piercing is located in the spot where the eyelets would be if one was wearing a corset. It is a symmetrical piercing with an equal number of holes on each side. As few as four holes can be used (two on each side) up to as many as the expanse of skin will allow. (Link)

Star Wars Corset


The Dark Side has never looked so sexy! It's a Darth Vader corset. Besides the fantastic Star Wars Lord Vader mask print which looks to be from Revenge of the Sith, it has an alternating flames print fabric and it topped with a pair of polka dot ribbon bows (to show the softer side of the Force). A Star Wars corset with flames…wow. (Link)


Clock Corset


Be the center of attention at the next costume party you attend in this one of a kind ensemble created especially for the Norwescon 32 Fannish Fetish Fashion Show. Inspired by Pretty Alice from Harlan Ellison's classic story "'Repent Harlequin!' said the Ticktockman," the corset is made of three layers of fabric: a cotton coutil inner-lining for stability, a layer of micro corduroy for texture, and two-tone rust colored taffeta that has been torn in many places to allow the natural beauty of the bleach-distressed micro corduroy peek through.

The center of this corset is a sight to behold- A WORKING CLOCK adorns this piece surrounded by gears and elegant black pleated trim that also finishes the hem along with two small antiqued brass chain loops for decoration. The center front extends down to the knees, accentuated by a gigantic rusting tractor gear mounted on taffeta. (Link)

LED Corset


This outfit consists of a silver corset top with diagonal quilting detail. A grid of red, blue, green, and gold LEDs is embedded in the corset, and designed to fade and flash in a variety of patterns to suit your mood. (Link)

Star Trek Corset


What's more sexy than this Star Trek Corset ($200), from Etsy seller EveningArwen? It can be made in any of the Star Trek colors. (Link)

Darth Vader & Storm Trooper Corsets


California based costume and corset maker Evening Arwen has released a pair of fancy unlicensed corsets based on the costumes of Darth Vader ($600) and the Imperial Storm Troopers ($500). "No Galactic Ruler should been seen with a purse so we've provided you with storage compartments in your utility belt, suitable for holding the keys to your starship and your communication device. Only a swishy cape can make a grand entrance really grand so we've also attached one to the matching shrug. And to finish things off, we've also provided a pair of gauntlets that can fit over most regular sized dress gloves. " (Link | Via)

Corset T-Shirt


This design is inspired by all the girls that got their back pierced so they could pull a ribbon through. It looks sexy, so does this t-shirt, but it's a lot less painful. The ribbon is nice and purple and it stands out in a crowd, even around pierced people. (Link)



Half-Bust Corset


This Antiseptic Fashion's Hypsipyle leather corset ($600) is smoldering hot and only covers one breast for the adventurous, wow! (Link)

Celebrities With Nonsense Tattoos

Inking on their bodies is a passion with our celebrities. Where some celebs get the most beautiful and meaningful tattoos, there are others who get into a total waste by drawing the most useless things on their body. We appreciate the stars with sexy designs that help in giving us a new style statement and we hate the people who are spoiling the art of tattoo making with meaningless prints. Below is a list of celebrity tattoos that are worst of their kind. Have a look and decide which one is the most pathetic.
 Miley Cyrus “LOVE” tattoo
miley cyrus love tattoo
This female is a plain attention seeker and I wonder what came in her mind before having the love tattoo on her ear. It is pointless. She could have had a better design if she was so keen to get herself inked.

David Beckham “Vihctoria” tattoo
david beckham victoria mispelled tattoo
David, how many more tattoos? You look perfect with what all you have. And if you continue going down the needle then spelling mistakes like Vihctoria, the Sanskrit tattoo are bound to happen.

Rosie O’Donnell’s messy foot tattoo
rosie odonnell foot tattoo
I love the foot tattoos, they help in giving a different and stylish charm to your personality. But a hotchpotch tattoo like Rosie O’Donnell’s is an absolute no. She had it all, from the candles to the flowers and insects in one design. Gross!

Hayden Panettiere’s misspelled tattoo
hayden panettiere mispelled tattoo
“Vivere Senza Rimipianti” loosely translates “To live without regrets” in Italian and the tragedy that happened with Hayden was that the word ‘Rimipianti’ was misspelled, when she got it inked on her back. Well, it is looking quite awkward but is still a survivor amongst other shitty celeb tattoos. 

Pink’s Barcode tattoo
pink barcode tattoo
It is a pointless and a meaningless design. I mean if at all you want to undergo such a huge amount of pain, why would you want a useless design? Well, I think Pink can answer it better as she got the crappy barcode tattoo on the back of her neck.

Johnny Depp ‘Winona’ tattoo
johnny depp winona tattoo
It is always said that you should never get your lovers name tattooed on your body, the love gets jinxed. And the same happened with Johnny Depp who had to change his tattoo, ‘Winona Forever’ design to Wino Forever. Gosh!

Mandy Moore heart tattoo
mandy moore heart tattoo
Here comes another crappy design. What do we make tattoos for? So that we can flaunt them. Right? But Mandy Moore doesn’t think that way or why would she have the smallest little heart inked on her second toe. Weird!

Scarlett Johansson’s scenery tattoo
scarlett johansson scenery tattoo
Scarlett Johansson seem to be really inspired by the school time drawings and she got a sun setting scenery on her left forearm. Doesn’t Scarlett feel to rub it off. It is actually crappy!

Kimberley Stewart’s ‘Daddy’s Girl’ tattoo
kimberley stewart daddys girl tattoo
This is a really sweet gesture by Kimberly to have a Daddy’s Girl tattoo on her body. But what is alarming is the place. Yes, Stewart got it six inches above her vagina. Well, I find it really gross, there were many other places Kim, why here?

Nicole Richie’s ‘Virgin’ tattoo
nicole richie virgin tattoo
Nicole has been sexually active with only two men in her life and still she bears a tattoo with the word Virgin on her left wrist. Weird? Well, wait, Nicole has an explanation, she got the tattoo to indicate her Birth Sign, Virgo. Now, this is really hard to digest!

Stefan Marbury’s shoe company logo tattoo
stefan marburys shoe company logo tattoo
First to get a tattoo on the head is a dumb job and that also a shoe company logo is more dumber! Yes, Stefan Marbury had the design of his shoe company inked on his head. Very-very weird. I sometimes wonder where people get these stupid ideas from!

Cher’s bum wings tattoo
chers bum tattoo
I am very sure that Cher is regretting this one and if she is not, then she is slightly off the track. I feel like laughing out loud on this one. First off all it’s the wings and that too on the bum, crappy indeed!

Eve’s dog paw print tattoo
eves dog paws tattoo
Eve seems to love dogs a lot or why would she think of having dog paw tattoos on her breasts? This is very funny! Take my advice, don’t even try to think about a tattoo like this for yourself.

Kate Gosselin’s Pooh tattoo
kate gosselins pooh tattoo
We all love Winnie the Pooh but Kate Gosselin seems to have more interest in him as she got the character imprinted on her leg. LOL. It is actually looking funny, it’s just not her age to have this design.

Brad Pitt’s lines tattoo
brad pitt lines tattoo
Bard your partner always have some sexy tattoos on her body, right? What happened to you then? Why some messy lines on your lower back? Did you want to draw a map of some city? If yes, then why. Phew! It is crap!

Mena Suvari’s Lucky number tattoo
mena suvaris lucky number tattoo
Agreed that 13 is Mena’s lucky number but why did she have inked in between her breasts. To make it look hot? Well, if yes, then I am very sorry Mena, it is looking absolute crap. And it is not even fully visible, you will have to remove your bra to flaunt it! Pointless!

Jenna Jameson’s messy back tattoo
jenna jamesons mess tattoo
The back tattoos are always sexy but I wonder what Jenna did with her back design that it is looking disgusting. It seems as if she had the ink and spilt it all over, Gross!

Amanda Seyfried’s ‘Minge’ tattoo
amanda seyfried minge tattoo 1
Minge is a vulgar term for woman’s pubic hair or genitals and I wonder why Amanda wanted to have it inked on her feet. It is shity!

Top 10 Expensive and Unusual Luxury Wrist Watches

Individualists demand excellence, exclusivity and choice, and for the very same reason, luxury watchmaking firms are always busy creating some unusual, out of the world wrist watches for the elite individuals. A luxury watch usually says a lot about the monetary and social status of its owner. If you love to spend your hard earned money on an unusual luxury wrist watch, we present to you some of the most extraordinary watches of all time.

 Hublot’s Black Caviar Bang
black-caviar-bang_X3bBo_48
The $1 million Caviar Bang comes festooned with a 18k white gold case and clasp with hundreds of precision cut black diamonds, totaling to 34.5 total carats. There are 322 diamonds on the case, 179 on the bezel, and 30 on the clasp. The one million dollar watch has only one visible feature, which is the black and deep tones of the diamonds, shining in their harmonious alignment. The watch features a special Hub Solo T tourbillon movement that symbolizes the fusion between watchmaking and jewelry.

 Day & Night watch
day-night-watch_Mv5gS_48
The Day and Night watch, which doesn’t tell the time but just day or night was snapped up within 48 hrs of its launch by watch fanatics. The Day and Night watch uses the complicated tourbillon movement, invented to overcome Earth’s gravity that used to affect the accuracy of watches, which lures watch connoisseurs as well as fashion aficionados.

 MaĆ®tres du Temps’ Chapter One
chaper-one_H2wyw_48
Created by master watchmakers Christophe Claret, Peter Speake-Marin and Roger Dubuis, Chapter One is a world first combination of complications comprising a tourbillion, mono-pusher chronograph, retrograde date, retrograde GMT and two idiosyncratic rolling bars, indicating the day of the week and phase of the moon. The laser-pierced moon and stars on the outer roller of the moon phase indication add to its stellar elegance.

MB&F’s Horological Machines
horological-machines_GZc1J_48
There are two stunning Horological Machines No3 (HM3) watch designs named Sidewinder and Starcruiser. Both the models have some visual distinctiveness and each presents its own angle while telling the time. Hour and day/night indicator is on one sapphire cone and the Minutes indicator is on the second cone. The most striking feature of these two MB&F models is the movement with automatic rotor, which is upside down. It means you don’t have to turn your wristwatch over to boast its most appealing element.

Moon Dust-DNA collection
moon-watch_epqtE_48
The “Moon Dust-DNA” collection includes watches made from moon dust, parts of the Apollo 11 rocket and bits of spacesuits. The dials of the new watches will feature tiny craters, with dust in them from the moon rock. Steel from the Apollo 11 space shuttle will be used for the case while the strap will use fibers from a spacesuit that was worn during the ISS mission.

 Hublot’s Big Bang
big-bang_5MDVO_48
The $1 million Big Bang boasts a fully invisible setting that makes the material disappear and the only thing revealed are the diamonds. The credit goes to the craftsmen who accomplished the tedious job of making this exclusive watch, which was not feasible a few years ago. Startlingly, the tourbillon movement of the watch is veiled under 493 Top Wesselton baguette diamonds of dissimilar sizes.

Titanic-DNA watches
titanic-dna_9wKIo_48
The Titanic-DNA watches have been made from the hull of the doomed Titanic. The metal has been mixed with contemporary shipbuilding steel to make the casing of the timepieces. The black dials have been made by mixing the recovered coal burned in the Titanic’s furnaces with ceramics.

Vacheron Constantin’s Quai de I’lle
wristwatch_jmPVk_48
Dubbed the Quai de I’lle, the watch features invisible UV marking, laser perforations, high-security inks, and other techniques employed to secure passports and currencies. Some of the models available in this watch collection tout tiny text on the dials, which can be read only with the help of a magnifying glass.

Ulysse Nardin Tellurium J. Kepler
ulysse_nardin_watch_sZxhO_48
Depending on which part of the globe you live, you can order a Ulysse Nardin Tellurium J. Kepler showing Earth as seen from the North or South Pole. Sitting in any part of the world, you can know which part of the Earth has daylight and which is wrapped in darkness. The watch is divided in two parts where one part rotates once in a year and the other shows when there will be a solar or a lunar eclipse.

 DeWitt Concept No. 1
dewitt9_48_Vhw7O_48
This gothic pirate spaceship of a watch does set new standards for steampunk artifacts with its expanding riveted case, flying tourbillon, five barrels and a 21 day power reserve. The flying tourbillon has been employed to counteract the force of gravity and keep the watch accurate.

 Cabestan Winch Tourbillion Vertical Watch
cabestan-winch-tourbillion_1M6wo_48
The Steampunk-ish Cabestan Winch Tourbillion Vertical Watch is such a stunning creation that you’ll forget that it actually tells the time. It has 1,352 components all working together, driven by a 450 link chain and nickel silver drums. Two rotating drums indicate the time, while further drums show power reserves. More here.

Hysek Colosso
hysekcolosso_dVHRr_48
Hysek Colosso watch gives you the liberty to watch the Earth spin right on your wrist. It features a 12mm three dimensional globe that sits at 12 o’clock.

Featuring a big date at 12 o’clock, it also displays an indication of the cities of the 24 time zones linked to the GMT.

Fur Colored Wedding Gown

Well, I really like colors in the bridal outfits. But this Fur Wedding Gown by Ornella Meneguzzo is pointless. Imagine a girl wearing a short frock with fur and diamonds while walking down the aisle. Fugly!

I really don’t find this happening at all! The war style print on your wedding dress, which girl will like to wear something like this. 

Sheer Leggings Wedding Gown

Bridal outfits are supposed to be beautiful with laces, nets etc. But this one from the Pam Hogg 2010 Autumn/Winter collection is gross! Yes, it is looking more like a futuristic dress.

Body Painted Wedding Gown

This kind of a wedding dress is perfect for those with sexy bodies. But then also, why not a beautiful gown and why will anyone want to paint their bodies in that form. Confused!

The idea behind this gown is awesome but to wear such a piece to your wedding is just not happening! Made from thousands of plastic bags, this dress will not at all make you look fashionable.

Peacock Feathers Wedding Gown

A dress made out of a parachute? Well, the idea behind this gown was very sentimental but wearing it on the wedding day was quite weird.

Cream Puff Wedding Gown

Made of 1,500 cream puffs and weighing 20 pounds, this bridal outfit is something very strange. I wonder how Viktoriya pulled it off.

Goth Wedding Gown

Weddings are supposed to be pure and white is the color. But if you are a practicing Goth and want your style to be Gothic, then these black gowns with black veils will be your dress of the day. I find these attires really weird.

Longest Train Wedding Gown

Brides love to have long trains behind their wedding dresses. But will you ever want to have a train as big as this one?

Chocolate Wedding Dress

It’s yummy! But wearing it to your wedding may prove to be a thing to worry. What if the guests start eating you?

Hello Kitty Wedding Gown

Duct Tape Wedding Gown

This can be called as a sticky wedding. The bride in a dress made of duct tape! It is very-very weird. Is it appealing you?

Corpse Wedding Gown

Wedding gowns are worn on a day that marks the beginning of a new life. And wearing the corpse designs on a pure day like this is actually gross.

Boxing Gloves Wedding Dress

Vivienne Westwood calls it sporty bridal dress and I call it useless. Imagine a bride wearing this gown in the church. Shit!
