We’re cuckoo for Kai Kuhne today. A couple fashion weeks ago, aka the clothes you can find right now, two hot insane-looking girls pranced up to Kai’s show wearing these sleazy jumpers that were stuffed up every crevice of their torsos and they’ve been spiking jarts of lust in my mind ever since. Yeah yeah that Mickey Mouse print is sliiiiightly low-rent Jeremy Scott from five years ago but you know what? For one, you are a mongoloid if you don’t enjoy low rent, and for two, it is literally your job when you are dazzlingly foxy to dress like a slutty spaz—seriously, that’s all you have to do—and these two wrangled that down. Anyway, we chatted with the guy who made those jazzy snatch traps, Cody Ross (his line’s called Priestess NYC and he also makes those floral arranger styrofoam ring headband and bangle things that are covered in metallic spandex that we keep seeing), to find out more and discovered that it’s possible to invert the weird, interesting people making lousy clothing paradigm. Meaning that sometimes people who make good things have nothing to say. Oh wait, that’s not news. Anyway…

Vice: Who were those hot girls in your Mickey suits at the Kai Kuhne show?

Cody Ross: My hot girlfriends!

Your girlfriends, like you fuck them both?

Ha ha…maybe!

That’s you there in the middle of the photo. I’m not buying it. Who are you designing for?

Super cool, freaky hot girls with good taste! An opinionated, knowledgeable and highly individualized girl who is a little irreverent and subtly outlandish. She obsesses over fit and style and is typically well traveled and familiar with the coolest things in the coolest cities: NYC, Paris, London, Shanghai, etc. are her playgrounds…

and she’s very in tune with her surroundings.

Er. I dunno, man. I just thought it was for skinny freaks who cut in line at fashion shows.
