Hold onto your hats everyone, ‘cause
today, Gus is hopping on a fashion time machine! He’s going throughout
modern history, and across Eurasia, trying on an array of sparkling
gentlemen’s earrings!
The July theme for the #adriandollslifekenchallenge
celebrates the first ever Ken doll to come with a pierced ear (released
in 1993). The second, a pirate themed Ken, was released a few years
later, in 1998. So, in honor of this timeless piece of jewelry, Gus here
(starting on the lower left) is rocking 17th century royal earrings
from the Mughal Empire, inspired by a portrait of Prince Dara Shikoh.
Next, Gus sports simple gold hoops, inspired by a portrait of Francesco
Tominz, from 1819. On the lower right, Gus, wears der Löffel, a
traditional men’s earring, always worn in the right ear in Appenzell,
Switzerland. And, finally, on the top, Gus wears a single
Renaissance-style pearl drop, inspired by a 2018 editorial photo of
model @aaronshandel. Swipe to see the inspiration pics. 🎨💎✨
Gus’ earrings are staying on with tiny pieces of kneadable eraser.
