The ultra-hip hip-hugging pop culture fashionistas over at Black Milk are redefining what it means to get Stark naked with their new line of Game of Thrones inspired clothing that includes leggings, swimsuits, skirts, dresses and… basketball uniforms?!? Aye!
The Giorgio R. Armani Martin designed collection (I made that part up) will be available at BlackMilkClothing.com on March 11 at 9AM AEST. (Which is Australian time. I ran the date and time through an online converter and I came up with March 10 at 7PM EST here in the US.)
The clothing line comes in essentially five different groupings. First we have the “Clash of Kings” line (below), which features the sigils from four of the strongest houses of Westeros: Stark, Lannister, Baratheon and Targaryen. Black Milk described the look by writing, “Yep, you can represent a number of Houses from Game of Thrones AND look fierce at the same time. We couldn’t fit all the houses on though… you’d need at least 10 more legs for that!”
Clash of Kings comes in leggings (seen above with the dire wolf), swimsuit, reversible skater dress and two different t-shirt cuts (GFT and BFT):
Next up we have the dragon egg patterns in both green (Rhaegal) and red/maroon (Drogon). Black Milk described the photo at the top of this post with a Daenerys look-alike model sporting the Rhaegal green leggings as “something a little bit sexy and something a little bit badass!” They then added, “Dragon eggs never looked so glamorous!”
And for the photo just above, they wrote, “Drogon the Dragon was named after Daenerys Targaryen’s husband Drogo. Drogon is the largest and most aggressive of the dragons. You too can be just as fierce with this skirt!”
The dragon egg looks come in leggings, swimsuit and reversible skater skirt:
And if your GoT forum blind date is going really well, you can invite your date to explore Westeros by wearing leggings, a form-fitting mini-dress, or a reversible skater dress made out of a map of Westeros! This could change how we talk about physical interaction! Instead of getting to first, second or third base, we would instead refer to scaling the Wall, reaching The Twins and arriving at King’s Landing!
And speaking of arriving at King’s Landing, check out this dress featuring the Iron Throne itself!
“Constructed by Aegon I Targaryen,” Black Milk explains, “the first king of the Seven Kingdoms. Aegon the Conqueror had the Throne made from the swords surrendered by his enemies. It was made deliberately with steel poking into the back so that a king could never sit back and rest easy. So basically, no one’s going to mess with you when you’re wearing this dress!”
Next we have a series of what Black Milk calls “shooters” (above), but what everyone else would call basketball uniform tops. The shooters come in four different styles featuring the four houses from their Clash of Kings line (Stark, Lannister, Baratheon and Targaryen) with the wonderful added touch of the capital city of each emblazoned across the front:
For those not wanting to join the NBAratheon, you can still support Team Stark or Team Targaryen by sporting either a t-shirt (each comes in either the BFT or GFT style) or a scoop skater dresses featuring the Stark or Targaryen sigil:
And lastly we have Littlefinger leggings. I’m sure that out of context that is a pretty odd word pairing — actually, it’s a fairly odd word pairing in context as well! Anyways, have fun knowing that while your buns are getting ogled that the ones ogling are actually learning valuable lessons from the Machiavellian money-changing maestro himself:
As I mentioned, The Black Milk Game of Thrones clothing line goes on sale at 7PM EST on March 10 at BlackMilkClothing.com — I recommend getting there on time because they have been known to sell out of stuff and you wouldn’t want to have to show up at your Game of Thrones premiere party without those Drogon leggings you just fell in love with!
Oh crap… I just realized I finished this post without ever dropping my Black Milk of the poppy joke! (I did do the “Giorgio R. Armani Martin” thing though, right?)
