Who or what is a Scissorfiend? The fiend holding the scissors is Kimberly May King, a madwoman for historical fashion in Portland, Oregon. As a very young lady she gravitated toward daring and scandalous pursuits — not one for humble beginnings, her very first sewing project was a custom corset. In the years since, she has further debauched herself by immersion in dressmaking, theatrical costuming, Victorian wardrobe both faithful and fanciful, and ever-more-elaborate corsetry. (I hear she even grinds her own bones — the very thought!) Rumor has the girl they call Scissorfiend continuing to flaunt decency by producing everyday apparel, occasional wear, accessories, and handbags for clientele of certain... inclinations. Not content to fall only so far, she has even learned the tricks of the milliner’s trade; it is whispered that she will indulge herself for hours over steam, block, and ribbon, abandoning herself unreservedly to obsession and delight. Most recently, this fiendish girl has aquired premises in which to entertain callers by appointment. Those who share her appetites for strange imaginings and odd aesthetics can arrange an introduction by email. If you’re itching to tell Miss King what you think of her, by all means sign her guestbook. |
