These are things that are so cool, so out there, so special, so limited edition, so expensive, so one-of-a-kind... So cool that they don't have a category they fit in. They only belong here.

Jacques Fath

First to recommend

Description

Jacques Fath led a magnificent life. The glamorous, self-taught Frenchman opened his couture salon in Paris in 1937 and became one of the first French designers to export haute couture collection to the United States. This museum-quality collection includes 26 volumes of original sketchbooks from 1948 through 1956, with more than 3,400 couture designs. The collection also includes three exquisite Fath haute couture dresses, each with its accompanying sketch.

WHAT COULD BE MORE EXCITING TO A COUTURE LOVER? MMMMM....

Swami Conversational Robot

First to recommend

Description

Fortune tellers and their tired revelations. "I sense you are in love!" as they spot your ring and hit you up for 20 bucks. Yawn. A cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence robot that recognizes family members, can carry on conversations, develops relationships, and answers questions with fact-based advice, now that's going to freak out the kids. Say, "Hey" to the Swami.

The OMG factor on this dude is off the charts. You'll swear he's human, right down to his facial expressions. How does he do it? Revolutionary character-engine artificial intelligence software. Micro-camera eyes. More than 30 robotic micro motors. All running off a PC laptop (included, of course).

Teach him to wink every time the wife walks by. Name him Mortimer. Pack him up in his suitcase and take the show on the road. OS platform? Memory cache? USB ports?

Something every fashionista should own, a clothes stand so you don't end up throwing all your clothes into a big pile somewhere getting wrinkled and forgotten.

Carmen Miranda as Chita Chula in "Doll Face" by Joseph La Shelle

First to recommend

Description

The image, printed from the original 10"x8" Kodak Ektachrome from an edition of 10 (This one numbered 2/10) is printed on Ilfoflex, high gloss, high resolution archival paper, mounted on aluminium and beautifully framed in a heavy "floating" black mat lacquer. The quality of the image is truly extraordinary and the low resolution image illustrated sincerely does not do justice to the actual image. If you like what you see here, we guarantee you'll be blown away when you see the image "in the flesh".

Parrot's Head Cane, c. 1920

First to recommend

Description

There is nothing more debonair than a walking cane. If you're brave enough to use it - this 1920's cane is fabulous with its parrot head accent... only the best for those with fabulous flair.
