One of the stronger accents in the #Y2020K “Rust” collection is this hand polished blackened chain #recycledmetal #metal #metalforever @thexzouix that once toubled the dog we had many years ago. I completely restored it back into a perfect shape. I never understood why would anyone go ahead and chain a dog in a garden. I’d always unchain him. In this collection I am gazing into minds of people through their actions (only by observation) and rethinking my personal standpoint towards #cruelty and its forms. I have an utterly strange feeling this one can’t be described by words. You’ll have to experience it. It’s worth mentioning that metal is a very hard and rewarding material to #work with. And it will look amazing with the black silk, cotton, dusty gray chiffon, rust dyed natural cotton knit and of course black recycled leather which I consider to be even cruel than a chained dog. I mean, someone buys and throws away leather as if it was a stone or something. Would you really skin an animal just to have a miniskirt or a sexy pair of pants? I am salvaging this material because once it is bought and abandoned, it deserves another purpose by recycling when the material is in a perfect condition. Which in fashion’s eye is “dead but beautiful” #deadbutbeautiful What a #classy status, right? #stopthecruelty #crueltyfreefashion Cruelty free fashion collection made with cruel materials. This collection took a lot of work and many many nights of detailing and polishing the details and materials. I am so looking forward to photo shooting this collection ⛓ (Still looking for a model) xzouix.com/coming-soon ⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓ #experienceit #chainharness #bodychains #jewelry #slowfashion #formfollowsfunction #craftsmanshipmatters #zerowaste #fashiondesign #noir #xzouix https://www.instagram.com/p/CFqcBibhOM6/?igshid=ycau5blvdw8y

NEW CIGAR!!! The second & third of many introductions coming your way over the next few days from Foundation Cigars, NOW AVAILABLE for the very first time in Canada by way of our custom built walk-in humidors! “I WANTED TO CHOOSE A NAME THAT REPRESENTS THE GREATEST SYMBOL OF MY HOME STATE OF CONNECTICUT, THE CHARTER OAK.” — NICHOLAS MELILLO (Foundation Cigar President) Charter Oak also pays tribute to Melillo’s grandfather, who while earning a modest salary working for the Winchester Repeating Arms factory after WWII, smoked exclusively, broadleaf cigars manufactured by FD Graves on State St, while, no joke, Rick Ardito’s grandfather, a guard at Winchester, also smoked FD Graves biggest selling broadleaf, Muniemakers. Charter Oak Cigars hail from the same fertile valley in Connecticut that Master Tobacco Blender Nick R Agua aka Nick Melillo (formerly of Drew Estate Cigars) was born and raised. Charter Oak Cigars feature some of the most prized and sought after Cuban seed leaf varieties from the exquisite Esteli and Jalapa regions of Nicaragua. The cigars are then wrapped in either a silky, beautiful Connecticut Shade wrapper or a hearty and rich Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, leaving you with the perfect every day and every occasion cigar. You may not have experienced Foundation cigars as of yet, but that’s about to change!
