Yes. You heard that right. Body art will eventually eliminate the need for clothes. Okay. Not really. But the whole art of body art has always intrigued me - especially when artists draw clothing on model's bodies. I see it once at an event a while ago hosted by MAC, where models donned painted-on cheongsam. And now, body artist, John Vargas has given us his trompe l'oeil-esque body art at the Colombia Exposhow. Thanks to the handy dandy new slideshow feature, check out some of the garments featured. And P.S. Don't let the VPL bother you - it took me a while to get over that too. And yes, I know there are only three photos in the slideshow but I was so exctied to use this new slideshow thingy. Nonetheless, it will make you wanna say OLE!
