Detroit Fashion Brand Eat Da Rich’s Simone Else Opens Haunted Boutique for One Night Only
Simone Else’s Eat Da Rich has carved out a name for itself in Detroit’s fashion and art circles alike by reusing found and salvaged materials for her “maximum torture” aesthetic.
There’s great visual art, theatre and music in this city, but we don’t always talk about another artistic medium in Detroit — fashion design.
Designer and artist Simone Else is putting a spotlight on her artistic medium with Eat Da Rich — her clothing and accessory line she describes as “wearables for weirdos.”
Like something pulled from a 1980’s sci-fi movie, Else and her Eat Da Rich line often utilizes found or salvaged material and spins it into something new. The final aesthetic is part work wear, part hyper-sexualized couture wear that conjures up a fashion future far filthier than we’ve come to expect.
Else’s latest show is called “The Last Blouse on the Left,” which she describes as part “haunted boutique” during her interview on CultureShift.
