Tokyo, we are back! 
I am overwhelmed. 
I may have lost all facilities….
wha-
huh-
um…
hmm-
Is-
ok, I think, I have it-
yah, I know what this is!
I can’t stop looking!
Ok, so this promising young girl group was flying to their first overseas concert tour and they hit turbulence over a long-inactive volcano next to an Incan ruin and their plane plunged downward and the heat, radiation and mystic Inca enchantments turned them into the Glam Mutants! Their mission is to roam the catwalks of the world and fight evil with their amazing hair and layering powers!!

Just proves there are plenty of stylish homeless people in Tokyo! Actually, I think there may be some gems in there and not hidden in those gawd awful wigs. Have they been watching old reels of Tammie Faye Baker? Anyway, love the Glen Plaid coat and the classic lines of the pants. I think I might even like a few of the tunic type dresses but hard to tell with all the other stuff. You sure those wigs aren’t from a 101 uses for a dead cat. Recycling at it’s best…….

They look to me as if they were having a contest over who could put on the most clothes from out of the laundry hamper.while blindfolded. Some nice color combos though were found, Maybe I should try this as an color exercise during our next sewing class,

Layering and lenses…what is with the blue contacts and grey big lips never mind the James Brown “do”. Imagine what the back dressing room looks like…boxes of scraps and crap and like lynnewll says…blindfolded and told to keep putting bits and pieces on until it is their time to be called. It is all very spooky!

Sorry…were they wearing odd clothing? I was mesmerized by their weird lips and couldn’t see anything else…well, other than the hair.
Is it possible that in Japan, the odder the designs, the more $$$ some investor will throw at it?

Several thoughts occur to me: Knee cutouts are so much classier than wear holes…?
I’ve never seen hair so big, how do they keep those wigs on their heads or manage to stand upright under all that weight?
Are the boobs on that first model barfing?
I’ve always wanted a skirt made of kitchen towels–so handy for when you’re slaving over dinner.
I really don’t know how you find this stuff, but thank goodness you do, it always brightens my Wednesday! 🙂

The name Facetasm still makes me giggle. The first time I saw it I was trying to think of the Engrish that they were going for with the name, but could never figure it out. Face orgasm? Face ghost? Face laughing because it has no idea what the body is wearing??
This is one of those collections I can appreciate for the creativity, but wonder if anyone actually buys the clothes and wears them. You could probably get one of those carpet sample stacks and just wear that for less money.
