Trendy Horror?

When we think of movies as fashion inspiration, titles like The Devil Wears Prada, or 27 Dresses, or I am Love come to mind. Rarely does one equate a horror flick with couture trends. And then you get a movie like Fruit Chan's "Dumplings", a surprisingly fashion-forward movie. The clothing worn by the two lead women in this 2004 film has elements one might recognize from the Autumn 2011/Spring 2012 catwalks. Mixed prints? Check. Colour blocking? Check. Wedges and platform shoes? Check. Asian influence? Androgynous silhouettes? Done and done. Since, because of the disturbing content of the movie, we can't exactly recommend it to anyone but horror aficionados, we'll leave you with a few stills to illustrate our point.
