However, the best discovery of the night was the waitress. Her legs, I mean. Or rather, what was covering her legs.
I couldn't take my eyes off her most fabulous of leggings, and I just had to ask - even if it was just to let her know I wasn't a creep. She directed me to this:
An online shop, started by an Australian designer called James Lillis that sells stretchy nylon clothes - mainly leggings, but also swimsuits, dresses, etc. - in absolutely fabulous prints! I'M OBSESSED!!!
I still can't work out which I like most!
Aurora Skye Leggings?
The TETRIS leggings??
or - OH MY GOODNESS WOW - the Jellyfish Swimsuit.....
If you have a look at their "Museum", you can see all the incredible things they have produced in the past: http://www.blackmilkclothing.com/collections/museum
There are faaaar too many awesome items here to pick out individually, but obvious stand-outs include: The Great Wave Swimsuit, with the famous Japanese print by Hokusai;
the Sharks vs. Mermaids swimsuit; the Mucha series; the Clouds series; the Dali, Koi vs. Samurai and Caterpillar swimsuits; the Jellyfish leggings; THE LIGHTNING LEGGINGS:
OH MY GOD THE LIGHTNING LEGGINGS.
Damn, those are cool. And they're gone forever :(
Also, any of those prints on a catsuit = automatically fashion gold.
I love catsuits.
And in the time it's taken me to faff around and publish this post, a substantial amount of the products have moved from the shop to the archives. This brand is selling very very fast, I'm guessing it's one to watch - it's going to be huge!
