That’s awesome. I love Edward Gorey and Tavi Gevinson.
I had a high school Latin teacher who was obsessed with Gorey and Blondie. His clothing style was more Gorey than Blondie, though, which I think worked for him in his Latin teacher role.
The comic strip? She *is *pretty hot.
The link in the OP just looks like one big ad to me. There’s a lot of Gorey’s art at the beginning, but all the “how to dress like this” part is just a bunch of links to where you can spend way too much money on things that vaguely resemble Gorey’s styles, from a small number of retailers.
EDIT: Oh, and Eve, I presume that you know that Blondie and Bettie Boop are sisters.
Chronos, that website is the brainchild of 15-year old Tavi, who is primarily a fashion blogger, so she’s just doing what she does - showing the outfits and telling you how to get them for yourself. And she doesn’t do Gap/Banana Republic/Target fashion - she was famously seated next to Ann Wintour during Fashion Week last year and does that sort of fashion (the expensive kind) mixed with random stuff she picks up from her friends’ moms and thrift stores.
