Fashion for Nonhumans

What Popular Websites Would Look Like As Fashionable Dresses

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:32 pm, April 20th, 2012


Victor Farentina (Neko-Vi on DeviantArt) has done something very unique. He’s combined fashion with the internet. No, he didn’t create a fashion website, he turned websites into dresses! Hit the jump for his take on Facebook, YouTube, Wikipedia, and more! 

It all started with MegaUpload. Farentina writes, “I made this design in ‘memory’ of Megaupload, closed days ago. Now I’m going to start a new project design, make a dress-version of every big web communities and programs like Facebook, YouTube, Google or Yahoo!”

I would totally wear Wikipedia. Never thought I’d say that…but I think The Mary Sue needs one. I see it as a print of all our banner ladies.

    The google is so pretty

    He should make one in memory of Myspace, complete with flashing sparkle gifs and music that autoplays and inconvenient times.

    This is fantastic.

    I think the Twitter one is my favorite.  It’s nice and subtle about being Twitter. Though the design choices for Wikipedia are PERFECT.

    There is so much awesome here! Reminds me of the Angry Birds gown the founder’s wife wore to a celebration.

    I think Megaupload and Facebook are the only two that I would really get from just looking at them. The others are a bit of a stretch into the abstract. Like, i don’t particularly identify Yahoo with so much purple or Youtube as maroon.

    …I think i would wear that Megaupload dress, actually.

    I love the Google one, but I would so wear the Twitter one!

  • http://twitter.com/ChiaraNelCloro Chiara Marchetti

    I’d totally wear Youtube and Twitter

    Shouldn’t Megaupload be a prison onesie? But I ADORE the Wikipedia one.

     Myspace and Geocities would be totally having the “You’re wearing my dress!” fight at the party. And as always no one cares what AOL is wearing.

  • Alicia Little

    aww, no tumblr? :(

  • Frodo Baggins

    I was gonna say Megaupload should be naked, now.

  • Alex T

    These are actually really cute! I think I would definitely want to wear twitter or youtube. Maybe facebook.

  • http://profiles.google.com/lowsee Heidi Mason

    … I’d wear most of them *lol*

    I like the twitter one.  I also think it’s appropriate that the Youtube one looks kinda evil…

  • Anonymous

    Nah, MSN was perfect!

    I want Wikipedia and Megaupload. <3

    For myself, I'd wear them. <3

    I can’t decide if I like Twitter, YouTube or Google the best!

  • http://twitter.com/Selkiechick Selkiechick

    These are great! Though I wonder if it would be better for the Twitter dress to be short- give the brevity of the messages. :)

  • Terence Ng

    I forgot about MSN. That’s pretty kitsch. I’d wear it to the next Pride event. :D

  • Nick Gaston

    (The TV Tropes dress is a Chador, with a tasteful Lampshade hat.) ;P

    OMG get this guy on Project Runway! If this were an actual challenge on that show, I can only imagine the disastors that would come out of some of the websites XD. I would pretty much wear any of those dresses.

    That dA dress is gorgeous. *___*
    And the Wiki dress is just… so apt. xD

    The ever expanding ruffles on the Facebook dress is wonderfully clever.

  • Soapstef

    I am in love with these! I want more!

    Erm . . . what about Wikipedia? I mean it does say ‘Wikipedia’ on the front.

  • Terence Ng

    I’m trying to ignore that one on account of how fugly, phoned-in, and literal the design is.

    Do want.
    If I’m ever rich and snooty, I’m hosting a ball where all the ladies in attendance must wear a dress like one of these. :)
