Latex Octopus Kimono by Deadly Couture

The Deadly Couture Latex Kimono is a sight to behold.

The kimono comes with gloves and adjustable obi belt that is adorned with a large latex bow. Shoes and hair accessories are model's own and not included with the listing.

1 in stock and it is one of a kind.

Octopus Costumes for Halloween: Children and Adults

Surely babies aren't the only ones donning octopus costumes this Halloween. After poking around the web some more, I found a unique assortment of octopus costumes for children and adults.

Ever hear of a "Wrap-n-Ride"? Well, neither had I until stumbling upon this clever idea. The featured octopus costume wraps around your child to provide a nifty octopus costume and a plush pal to boot! Available at UnbeatableSale.com



So much more than just an octopus costume...this unique garment comes with a story worth reading. Pay a visit to jennyzhang.org to read about "The Octopus in You, Who?" workshop.



A clever guy made his very own octopus costume from a standard hoodie. Read all about making your own octopus costume on Craftster.org.



This one has to be my favorite: Not only is this handmade octopus costume great for Halloween, but as designer Tiachia demonstrates, it's suitable for every other day of the year as well. Is that awesome or what? Unfortunately, the one-of-a-kind creation has been sold, but there's still time to get crackin' on creating your very own octopus costume.

Silver Octopus Necklace by Missy Industry

I am always on the hunt for great octopus jewelry. My latest find is a bold and brazen sterling silver octopus made by Canadian designer Missy Industry.

In her own words, "Missy brings the latest graphic & fashion trends into the often too classic world of bling." Hmmm...Are octopuses finally a fashion trend? Well, Betsey Johnson is rocking the octopus in her latest collection, so I'm gonna go with YES!!!


The necklace is available on Missy's site for only $70. Go get yer octopus on!!!

Octopus on the Catwalk!

The Fifth International Bodypainting Festival took place this month in Mainz, Germany. Among the many fascinating spectacles was this young model decorated as an octopus.

This year's theme was "discovery", which inspired a slew of imaginative creatures and creations from octopuses and butterflies to shipwrecks and rose gardens. 

A variety of techniques were used to achieve the magnificent results seen at the show. Artists from around the world assembled to sponge, airbrush, and traditionally paint models to create their masterpieces.
