When it comes to geek fashion, I tend to avoid the Hot Topic screen printed 8-bit truisms and go for the geek-chic kind of stuff. Without going overboard, LOOMLAB and United Nude's Lo Res series are right up my alley.
LOOMLAB, founded by artist Jane Henry, has just opened shop with a series of scarves inspired by binary codes, braile, circuit borads and more. Really beautiful, and just in time for winter (or... Christmas *wink*wink*nudge*nudge*).
But these polygonal pumps by United Nude really caught my eyes. As part of their Lo Res design project, United Nude "semi-automatically" designed these shoes by digitally scanning objects into a 3-D computer model and re-generating the results into various resolutions. The facets are glorious, and the shoe even comes in five flavors (White, Light Blue, Burgandy, Black, and my favorite, Grey). *Ahem* Did I mention I'm a size 9? Kthx!
