    See-Thru Minidresses of Dune? Isn't Brian Herbert writing that right now?

    If we walk the catwalk without rhythm, we won't attract the worm.

    I tried but I still don't really see anything in the photos remotely dune-ish.


    If you search and replace the word Dune with Darth Vader / Matrix / Vampires, it'll probably have the same result: art that needs to be explained first.

    Now these are the people who should be patrolling the streets of Cincinatti.

    Yeah, I got nothing, but none of this says 'Dune' to me.

    @Kevin Jones: I agree. The closest parallel I can draw is that the stillsuits were black, as are most of these outfits.

    I think the missing eyebrows are a Lynchian take on the Bene Gesserit thing. Didn't all them Gesserits shave off their eyebrows or something? I kinda recall that.

    They definitely aren't water-soft.


    Strut without rhythm so as not to attract the worm.

    @Garrison Dean: If you touch them, they'll break. They're literally skin and bones and probably are cold to the touch and have that fuzz all over their skin that anorexics get.


    They need more than a sammich. They need to be asking if they can has cheezburger.

    I was hoping those tusk-shaped things south of the lead photo model's bellybutton were tattoos, because that would have been hot. The actual outfit...notsomuch.
