We’ve covered a lot of showers here on Gearfuse and most tend to be extravagant light-up systems that cost five figures. For the rest of us, we can take our 3BR, 1 bathroom apartments to the next level with these shower companions from Italian company Colacril. Add a melted starfish to your beach house, toss a panda in your dojo; it doesn’t matter. Everyone will surely compliment you on your styling choice whilst they wash away the beer you spilled on them earlier.

When you invent a time machine in the year 2094 and travel back to the year 1990, the first thing you’ll want to do is attend the premiere of the Tim Burton classic, Edward Scissorhands. You’ll be able to catch a pre-Pirates Depp and Winona Ryder right as she was turning into a hottie. But more importantly, you’ll be able to wear these out in style.

Designed by Georgo Phillip Pecenikov, these cufflinks are articulated scissors that don’t just sit still and look pretty, they actually open and close. Silver cufflinks plated in rhodium that are shaped like a bent pair of scissors don’t come cheap though. $550 or your soul.

So you’ve got your stylish Urban Security Suit locked and loaded in preparation for the next full moon but what sort of artillery power can the fashionista use to prepare for the next zombie attack? Peter Gronquist has the answer with his “The Revolution will be Fabulous” fashion designer weapons.

Why use a standard rifle or chainsaw to slice through an army of the undead when you can use a Louis Vuitton or Prada rifle, or perhaps, even a Fendi-styled saw? No metrosexual zombie fighter should leave home without one, lest they lose their credibility as a douche bag. (more…)

Cellphones are getting so small these days that you totally lose your cool factor by having your phone be so inconspicuous. I, for one, want people to know that I have an awesome phone. If you feel the need to draw some attention to your mobile life, YUBZ has created an old-style telephone receiver to add on to your cellphone.

Effectively, making a wireless device partially wireless defeats the purpose of trying to live a mobile life. But we all know fashion causes pain (see: embarrassment) some times. They don’t say “beauty is pain” for nothing. — Andrew Dobrow

The next time you and your buddies decide to line camp for weeks on end in an attempt to score the latest hot product or event ticket, be prepared with the IZAT (Immediate Zip Aid Tarp) Wearable tent. Whether you are wearing it as clothing, using it as a shelter, or linking them together to form larger structures, the IZAT is functional fashion at it’s finest. Although I use the word “fashion” loosely. — Sean Fallon

Don’t let the disguise fool you! These dog tag shaped pieces of metal are more then just for decoration around your local gangsta’s neck. The BenQ MusiQ takes the idea of the shuffle portable media, and makes it a fashion statement (or a nice prank to play on your military unit. “Man down! What’s the officer’s name? BenQ MusiQ? Hey….What the hell?”). With two different designs, one made for the ladies, titled “The Magic Bean” (sounds like the title of a fairy tale), and one for the dudes, called “The Steel Wings” (for those super heavy flow days?), the player is focused to becoming the shuffle player of choice for the fashion hipsters we all hated in high school.

The sleek design of the BenQ is sure to melt the hearts of most of us gadgeteer’s, but does it pose a threat to the iPod shuffle? Our spidey senses are saying no. The name recognition, smaller design, and higher amounts of storage (BenQ will only offer 512 MB, though an SD card can help ease the pain) will keep the iPod the player to go to for most. The BenQ, for now, is geared towards the markets of fashionista’s and geek military men that can’t live without their musical geekness.
