Autumn de wilde starcrawler12/20/2023 ![]() We played the Jools Holland show in the UK, and I wanted something super dramatic and extra. I feel like it makes me look like a super villain or something, which is cool because the villains always have the best outfits. Arrow is my real name, and I don’t know why I had never thought to put arrows on anything before. For the pants, I thought it would be cool to have arrows that start at the bottom of the pant leg and point up to my crotch. I thought it looked so rad on him, so I based the top design off of that photo. ![]() There’s an old photo of David Johansen from the New York Dolls where he’s wearing this halter-like tuxedo shirt/vest thing. When we decided that tuxedos were gonna be one of the visual themes for this album, I wanted to design something that would be a slightly different version of a tux. ‘Roadkill’ music video / ‘She Said’ album cover (2022): PHOTO CREDITS: Cameron McCool and Mark Escribano Both costumes were mainly inspired by old cartoons of the Joker and Tank Girl, as well as some of the characters from the Dark Nights Death Metal comics. We then decided to turn it into two looks: one being a dramatic suit and one being a more sexy/trashy vibe. I scribbled out a very messy sketch and brought it to Jessica, and she made a new drawing of the outfit, and we took it from there. When we made the video, we wanted to do something that fit in that DC/Batman world. We did this song for the DC Comics ‘Dark Nights: Death Metal’ soundtrack. PHOTO CREDITS: Sunshine Mills and Cameron McCool Once we had our first tour in 2021, I wore it as my stage costume. ![]() We would meet on my front porch from a distance for the fittings. I asked Jessica if she would be down to make it and she agreed. In October of 2020, we got offered to do a live stream concert and I wanted to have a new look for the show. I designed this look during quarantine, while fantasizing about the day when I could play a concert again. Corset with matching lace-up pants & gloves (2020): ![]()
