I'm honestly not sure if any of these would be less creepy with context.
There are those among us who think of the past as the golden years, when everything was better than it is today, and people mostly spent tim...

Halloween is upon us – and trick-or-treaters and revelers are preparing to get those costumes out for another night of fun across America.

Natalie Portman wore a McBlobby purple dress on the red carpet at the premiere of her latest movie "Brothers" in New York City November 22, 2009. I saw the trailer for this movie, which also stars Tobey MaGuire and Jake Gyllenhaal, and it didn't look like the kind of movie you would wear a McDonald's Grimace dress to promote.

Yes, yes. But the question is, how did she keep her hair from losing that perfect coif?
As an artist, Natalie Shau wears multiple hats, so to speak, and this shows in her process. Aside from her personal projects, she has worked in fashion photography and designed artwork for theater productions, the music industry and advertising. Her personal work is similarly interdisciplinary: She makes props and set designs, stages photo shoots and then puts her photos under the (digital) knife, transforming her models from realistic women to warped, surreal vixens. Shau's latest body of work will debut at Last Rites Gallery in New York City on May 31. Her first solo show with the gallery, "Forgotten Heroines" brings mythological influences into Shau's vignettes of solitary, tragic protagonists. There is as much Shakespeare in these pieces as there is Marilyn Manson. "Forgotten Heroines" will be on view May 31 through July 5, but before the show opens you can get a first look after the jump.
