Would you pay hundreds and thousands of dollars to wear your worst nightmares? Well, creatives Kayla Arena and Toby Barron have created a creepy clothing series that is designed to look as if it was made from human flesh. They called it the Ed Gein, and anyone can order a piece on their Etsy. It's definitely some of the creepiest pieces of clothing ever.
If you're wondering, Edward Theodore "Ed" Gein was one of America's most infamous killers and body snatchers. His crimes gained attention when authorities discovered Gein was exhuming corpses from nearby graveyards and designing trophies from their skin and bones. Movies like Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and others were inspired by the life of this horrific man.
The main components of these handmade monstrosities are latex, silicone, and jacket. The creators claim that the "Drop Dead Sexy Boots" and other creations are "hand sewn together with love and spooky thoughts" to "make sure you stand out from the crowd", but it's hard to believe that anyone would like to look like Freddy Krueger in honor of a mad serial killer. What do you think about this series?

As an answer to you question. Yes this is the scariest clothing line 'ever' and in mine opinion also the sickest and not in a good way
Flora Polvado 7 years ago
Works of disturbing and repellent art. I don 't ever want to see anything like this again. Stopped at the first pic

Tomorrow, 27th of January, it's the International Holocaust Remenbrance Day. Maybe this is art, but it reminds me the real human skin lamp made during the Shoa.
Bambipants5000 7 years ago
Agreed. Of course creative and done well, but in extremely poor taste. Human life is much more important than this.
Herbert Nenenger 7 years ago
no, I would never wear it. It's gross and we have enough twisted people in the world today, thanks.

I'd be seriously worried that I would be stopped by police who thought I went all Ed Gein on some dead bodies and decided to flaunt it. I didn't even notice that they called the line "Ed Gein" until after I wrote this, so now I feel unoriginal but I can't think of anyone else who used people's skin for things like furniture besides anonymous Nazis. Regardless, for anything but a Halloween party, this stuff's pretty s****y looking, especially since they went to "slightly rotted corpse" as the motif. But I guess Gein made pretty ugly stuff too. Lots of nipples.

Absolute horror. Makes me sick to my stomach just looking at this garbage

Ugh so disgusting..can only imagine what type of "clientele" he has for this..only a very disturbed individual would do this or purchase it

Who in their right minds would design a clothing line in dedication of a disgusting human like Ed Gein?! Da f**k is wrong with you?! Burn this!
Adriana Lopez 7 years ago
The people who so calles designed this, will be the only bastards wearing it! Dam weirdos!!!!
Maggie Schmidt 7 years ago
Honestly would never wear it but I don't get what people think is wrong with it. There has been and always will be controversial art. It's quite obviously not real and no possible it would even look like that if I was. I personally thinks it's pretty cool (however idk who would buy it). So you what I say? Dude, keep doing your thing, forget other people's opinions. 😀

Wow. Tacky. I suspect they'll sell a few pieces to the freaky kitty crowd, though. It's amazing how quickly people will part with their money for stupid things.

To human who think it's sick, hoe do you think animals see us in goat leather jackets or ice bear fur coats, and buffalo leather boots. You may not like it but don't say it's sick wile consuming a 400 gr T-bone steak ;-)
Anders Witherstone 7 years ago
So much butthurting for barely convincing latex work. You people need thicker skin (no pun intended).

I do find it disturbing but I also think that the bowler hat and the boots would be cool to wear as part of a Halloween costume or something. I understand it may be a little too vivid for some people but if you love it or hate it you have to admit it takes alot of talent to create something like that
Tijana Kacarevic 7 years ago
Even tough it looks sick, this is the best art design ever against animal cruelty and wearing real animal leather and fur!!! :)
Tijana Kacarevic 7 years ago
If this looks so sick to everyone, how come wearing animal skin and fur doesn't look so sick to you? Best art idea ever against wearing real animal leather!!! :)
Lin Larsson 7 years ago
People calling this horrible and disgusting...what about animal skin? Leather is made of skin. Not disgusting?
SiYuan 7 years ago
Call me sick, but I actually like these. Sure I wouldn't wear them to school or work, but they do have their own time and space. I may just be part of that crowd, but I do enjoy dark art such as this. It's art. It's not real, I don't get why everyone is so pissed off. I personally think it's very well made and unique. And makes quite an impact, that is for sure.

Reminds me of the Germans in WWII were they made lamps and other thing with the skins of the people in the concentration camp. These people are mentally sick and need to be watched. It shows their mindset. What is the next step for them.
Eileen Barnett 7 years ago
Made me want to throw up. This is psychotic at the least and I would keep my eyes on these people if I was the cops. They are mentally sick if they think this is OK.
Alexis Nicolaescu 7 years ago
why is it so scariest one? people wear animal skin everyday and nobody has a problem with that, so now that you see it from a different point of view is scary? in my opinion, these would be one of the best "stop animal exploitation" poster and would have a bigger impact on humans than the rest
Polen Cerci 7 years ago
Pretty cool. Reminded me of the skins of the animals i am wearing. Leather shoes, leather jackets. Hopefully one day i'll be able to not wear leather. Not eating them was my first step.
Aubrie Allen 7 years ago
I can se why they call it Ed Gein, especially with the lamp shade. I'm curious as to how they form the leather into ear and face shapes.
Darth Vader 7 years ago
If Ed Gein was alive, he would buy. What is wrong with people! Why would you even think about creating something like this.
Ronen Levi 7 years ago
