Bobblehead Ben

From TV to er, TV

I just downloaded the latest Ugly Betty ep with the Christian Siriano cameo in it (fierce!) and they featured a neat little capsule showcase from his latest collection

There he is! I think he’s pretty cute, he looks so miniature. And also like a cross between R and this other guy Eddy if they had a love child together (ew, actually a really gross though). The hair and personality/voice are Eddy’s, the physique, nose, tattoos and generally scrappy/raffish air would be R’s. And look at him here! What a wee lad he is among all the amazons.

It’s the one of the right (duh) by Melbourne label TV. Hurrah for my eagle eye!

Oops, just checked their website and dress in question is known as ‘monster frill dress in olive silk crepe’. Ta-daa!

I wanted to post a pic of Jeff Goldblum as the Fly but they were too gross so I had to refrain.
