Bigfoot A La Mode

bigfoot shirt kimmel

Yes, dearies, our stylish hairy man hit the runway during Paris Fashion Week to show those fashionistas how to dud-up (with help from Adam Kimmel). Gushes the L.A. Times:

The major inspiration behind Kimmel’s Pacific Northwest collection was artist Dan Attoe, a painter and sculptor (and founder of the Paintallica art group) whose work taps into the gritty underbelly of the world where the highway curves through the giant redwood forests and motorcycle punk meets mysticism.

Although Attoe’s artwork, including towering stands of trees and Bigfoot creatures, appear on T-shirts, scarves and sweaters, most of the influences are a more subtle nod to the “things aren’t as they seem” motif…

Sounds edgy! Or, silly? Or exciting! Or, I dunno. I like the Bigfoot shirt. Here’s another:

I’m pretty much hoping those red/black pantaloons are not, in fact, what they seem.

The man in the first photo is too young to be wearing that cardigan. The NCJ should photoshop some knitting needles sticking out of the pocket to give it context. The other guy seemed confused about the function of the sleeves on the jacket. Or maybe it’s a subtle dig that we up here in redwood country are too lazy to wear our clothes properly.

No self-respecting resident of Hum Co would actually tuck in a T-shirt like that, let alone wear it with Dockers and a cardigan.
