Beasts of Burden
get your strap on!

Observe: the terrifying Bra strapus, of the fauna family Stickusoutium.

Its fierce attacks on peaceful neighbors such as the Shoulderus bareus and Tank topus are well documented. A modern-day cousin, Strapus seethroughosus, has given rise to countless uh-people-can-totally-still-see-them horror stories.

But now comes a deceivingly delicate-looking new breed of removable, interchangeable Strapus (commonly known by the name StrapCouture) made of filigree, stones, suede, and leather-woven chain link — meant to be seen but remarkably compatible with spaghetti straps and other outerwear.

Amazingly, they’re adaptable to any climate: arid (the racer-back regions), tropical (sub-shoulder terrain), and temperate (double-layered under tanks and boat-neck collars, just for the look of it).

There is still much to learn from these fascinating little symbiotes. Still, with a little luck on their part (and a lot more responsible dressing on ours) we may be in for a better-looking future.

An elusive, welcome state of being known as Perpetualus chicus.

Designer Michelle Zimmerman gifted Marcia at an Emmy event a few weeks ago, and the Desperate Housewives star requested a custom “M” engraved gold necklace. After receiving it, Marcia graciously called Michelle and thanked her, and let her know she was shot wearing it for the cover of an upcoming issue of TV Guide.

Congratulations to Delicate Raymond for the exposure and to mom-to-be Marcia!

The gold coin necklace is available for purchase at www.delicateraymond.com.
