Skingraft Designs: The Coolest Clothes You’ll Never Own
Posted by Qais Fulton
When I first stumbled across Skingraft Designs my first impulse was not to share them with the world. No, I intended to file them away in my secret stash of amazing designers so that I might dip into it occasionally and have everyone wondering where I find my marvelous couture. Graciously, I have decided to share with my beloved Ectonubbins, wanting an impeccable wardrobe for you all.
The clothes labored over by Skingraft Designs are simply astounding and possibly some of the best design I’ve seen, which isn’t a compliment I award lightly. Each piece seems to have tumbled through all our favorite fantasies, a cyberpunk touch here, a post-apocalyptic influence there, rendering them all absolutely gorgeous.
Those of you worrying about your pocketbooks need not fret; sadly, Skingraft Designs isn’t selling their larger pieces, although they are selling a bevy of tooled holster style bags perfect for the Asteriskpunk on the go.
I, like many of you I’m sure, long for the day when my riches have amassed to the point that I can clothe myself completely in designs such as these. Until then I comfort myself with the knowledge that somewhere, these all really exist, sighing pointedly as I click my way through a wardrobe I will never have.

That jacket you posted is amazing. With it I would be certain to survive the zombie apocalypse.

Did somebody say Squall Lionheart?

Wicked. Not the first attempt I’ve seen at a functional holster but certainly the most organic.
The rest of their work clearly speaks for itself.
For the record I’m on board with the previously coined *punk

I would imagine that in order to be worthy of such a garment I would need to carry an enormous sword, ride a motorcycle, have hair that defied gravity and be visually androgynous.
The one with the dreamcatcher in the middle of the back is especially lust-provoking.

If you want clothes to stylishly ride out the Apocalypse in, you can get no more glorious than the works of ERNTE.
Skingraft is nice, but ERNTE blows me away with consumerist lust.

I agree with you completely, a friend turned me on to ERNTE about 6 months ago. Sadly, the designer seems to have passed away which is a shame considering the great works she wrought.
