"Couture" is the most abused word in current parlance, but Rigged T-shirt Couture earns its title. These creations are sliced, shredded, tied and otherwise cobbled together from oversized T-shirts.

The results are astounding—I mean, you try turning a shapeless white T into a sexy, low-cut, laced-up corset! Designer Barbra Horowitz often "performs" the couture at private events (lots of celebs have brought her in as party entertainment) but the stores below carry the line as well.

Rigged T-Shirt Couture sells at Naked (see details above and below) and also at Fishnet, 336 S. La Brea Ave., Mid City, (323) 930-9933
