Dusters were originally worn by horse riders as light jackets to, you know it, keep the dust off their clothing. In the fashion world, they’ve evolved into light kimonos that are usually maxi length. To me, the wild python print on this one hearkened back those days of cowboys and the wild west.
Being the sci-fi nerd that I am, it also brought to mind Firefly, and made me think this might be a duster that someone living in that verse might wear. I guess it’s the dreamer in me that is drawn to the free and untamed feeling that this duster evokes.
Now all I need is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.

December 3, 2014Thanks. That duster had me a bit worried 'cause I loved it in the pictures but worried a bit about whether I would like the python print in real life, and I SO DO! Yay! 🙂

July 8, 2015Wow, this is stunning! So stunning that I have now ordered the python duster myself, and I can't wait for it to arrive. I really like the complete outfit, so prepare for a copycat running around the streets of Stockholm in a little while. 😉
Is that a camera remote in your hand?

September 5, 2016Weird…but is there any possibility you would be interesting in selling the duster. Literally need that in my life.

September 7, 2016Haha. Well, I actually really love it. I paid about $200 for it, so really wouldn’t part for it for less than that. But again, still love it.
