My theory is that the Very Same Person who liked the Bauhuas Armchair would also wear this Designer Hair skirt…It is a SHE and I am starting to think she is a Gemini & that she’s like the lower version of her sign. Every sign has a haute & a low (w.t.f. is French for low?) version of themselves. That’s not to be judgemental. But, for instance, a Lower Pisces is a lying, cheating, grifting and yet beguiling bit of work oft to be found bullshitting to the next hapless sap at a bar someplace. A Haute Pisces is compassionate, multi-faceted & truly glam.
Lower Leo is like the Cowardly Lion – all hollow bombast & name-dropping. I nearly typed name-dripping. Even MORE apt. A conversation with a lower Leo is like non-stop Name-dripping. The names and the brand references just get drip fed into the convo. Higher Leos are like life-is-a-party, self-actualising artistes at whatever they do.
Anyway, this Designer Hair skirt and that hideous Bauhaus armchair both belong to the same lady & I think she is a Lower Gemini. With a crush on a Lower Leo only she’s too self-obsessed to notice he gay.

OMG- that is sooo very wrong!
-
Hideous! I know a lower Gemini…she is so narcissistic she doesn’t even realize how she actually turns people off. She’s too busy recounting boring tales of all the guys who supposedly hit on her. Blech.
-
Thankyou Mystic. I needed a good laugh. That was totally awesome:)
-
Mystic
I do love to laugh at Leos (mostly because I’ve many Leo pals!)
Could you give us your version of “haute et bas” of all the signs? Terribly funny – as long as I’m haute cap!!
xx
-
I don’t believe it’s an actual hair skirt. The skirt itself is polyester and it’s designed to be worn over calf length hair. But you need to use a really good conditioner.
Or perhaps the model is a rare species of two legged yak.
So the hair is Leo, the suit is bas Cap but the whacked concept is Gem.
-
OMG….It’d match my hair…maybe if I wore it I could let the leg hair grow and no-one would notice…..seriously it’s indescribable, I can’t think of a suitable adjective…….it looks like an out-of-control merkin
-
A merkin that went to Ashley & Martins?
-
and would one send it to the dry cleaners or the hair salon
-
-
-
I checked out Alena Akhmadullina’s web page and her fabrics and colours are divine and so are most of her designs. She uses peacock colours.
-
Yah, the other clothes are nice! The one above is a piss take. Maybe Ms Bas Bauhaus Gemini whatserface commissioned she make something out of one of Tyra Banks wigs for a charity auction.
-
-
I’m a Gemini and this is absolutely horrible. But yes, I can see how it could appeal to someone a tad over-obsessed.
Please Mystic, I second the above, I’d love a spiel on the upper and lower of ever sign. My first boyfriend (probably every girl in my neighbourhood’s first boyfriend), was a lower Pisces, exactly as you pictured him. A nascent alcoholic, nothing intellectually redeeming, a lying, cheating, self-interested, narcissistic creep. Gosh he was charming! Put me off the fishy people for life, i still shudder if someone tells me they are Piscean.-
now now…Most of us Fishfolk are amazing.
-
And the most enlightened soul i’ve ever been with was a Fish…As Mystic said, high and low of everything…and sometimes in same person in one day…
-
-
after a long day at school that certainly woke me up haha thanks Mystic
-
i think the problem is with the tailored jacket combo. skirt pure genius.
-
OHHH IM SO ONTO IT MYSTIC!
i love making up characters lol -
I’m constantly dazzled by the wisdom of Mystic!!! You are so so right ALL the time. I love the lower Pisves description, spot on. Love the new look too.

Delilah Smythe was born Gemini Sun, Pisces moon and Scorpio rising
Delilah found school fun most of the time. She could torture geek boys into a froth of hormones as she quickly devoured programming languages. She also had the bad boys all a flutter down the back of the sheds. She found it hard to concentrate long enough to pull the grades she thought she deserved…as she kept on flitting off down unexpected pathways that went outside the marking criteria. Her teachers were often awed by her mental dexterity, but annoyed by how she couldn’t play by any other rules but her own. A comment on successive report cards often started with, Delilah is a quick thinker, with an enquiring mind, but finds it hard to focus.
Delilah made her first fortune at 15 when she had a mad online affair with a Russian boy. They were just trying to one up them selves with a game of ‘I can get away with more than you’, and she found a way to shift itty bitty amounts of retiree super funds into an off shore account. This proved much more fun than working on weekends at Sussan.
Delilah’s interests were widespread. She had a terrible time working out what degree she wanted at Bond University. She flipped in and out of faculties, charming lecturers into extensions, so she could balance out her social life, love life (usually at least 4 men that knew nothing of the others), study, part time job in fashion and still work towards an internship in Berlin. It was all terribly exciting, till it seemed boring. Delilah found she needed to cast about for mad things to do otherwise she brood. This was also boring and not good for her skin.
By way of some connections and her freshly completed business degree, Delilah eventually found the floor of the NY stock exchange just her sort of place. She could turn millions of dollars into billions…there was always someone telling her she was wonderful. Delilah loved New York. This last few months had been a little tough to look good in, but with some deft programming Delilah was able deflect any tricky problems away from her. Quite handsome men floated about adoring her…and she had ensured that a percentage of each lovely bonus found its way offshore so this downturn people were experiencing all seemed just another opportunity to create something new. Delilah was often irritated at people that complained about things…they just weren’t thinking laterally enough.
Delilah loved art, and fashion…but only the most intellectual kind…the type that most people dismissed and truly did not see the depth of meaning. Just the other day she had someone laugh at her wondrous Bauhaus armchair piece. Did they not get that the upholstery and fringing was an intentional irritant against the bourgeois masses of post war Germany? Plebian swine. At least Roberto understood. It seemed he knew everyone, he dressed superbly, he was even bff with Madonna’s brother. He threw the most gorgeous parties all throughout the month of August. ‘To celebrate me darling everyone should have fun, he would say …Oh and he adored me wearing the Hair skirt by Akhmadullina…he wasn’t even jealous that Ivan gave it to her last time he slipped into the country. Some day she just knew Roberto would realise they were in love, and then they could start a family of clever, clever quick minded little children that went to all the best parties.
-
I have bugger all idea of the subtle nuances of astro influences in Delilah’s life…just the bare bones…anyone is welcome to add on whatever seems apt…
-
Alternately I could sleep on it and come up with something…maybe.
-
I’ll give Ms D Smythe Neptune in Scorpio so she can use her hmm powers to seek gain over others and also as she has rather extremely lax personal morals…well beyond your ‘average’ lower viving gemini…so she’s sort of uberamoral…
Oh and for just a bit more piquant ‘charm’ Jupiter in Gemini so Delilah is nicely set up to use her mind to get ahead with little emotional or spiritual growth
Plus for the added bit of ruthless control freakery some Saturn opposite Pluto for some rather them be dominated than me.
Also physically I see Ms Smythe as about 5foot 8, Brunette, sleek cap of hair, and generally lithe.
The pisces moon lets Delilah feel she is has an exquisite connection with the arts and is self indulgent with her own expressions re:arts her place and understanding et al. Scorp rising is to inspire that little bit of fear.

Delilah – made up name, she is Shaz from Wogga – is a Gemini and she lies about having gone to PLC. She is a secretary who spent the early 90s shagging her boss in various Asian resorts and has never gotten over the “elite”
thing.
She is unversed in art, literature, humanities, has no flair whatsoever. She would get this skirt and wear it badly, would have got the couch if hubby hadn’t sunk so abysmally in the latest big bank blood lettings.
SHe thinks everyone fancies her and boasts constantly about her figure and apparent accomplishments. Shrill little harpie bitch pretender. No true charm. Anyone who uses the word “intellectual” with “fashion” is missing it. But it sums up Delilah. Yes she does look younger as she gets older, that’s gemini with capricorn for you, but the only thing she regrets with age is that she can no longer do shifts at the local knockshop when she feels like it. -
Her name is Roberta Proudfoot. She published an important post modernist feminist tome in the early 80s which although considered “directional” soon proved to lack academic glue and longevity. she is angry about that. she now teaches film theory in an art school which was really hot and now is not. she doesnt speak from notes, she wings it and drives her students to distraction with poorly developed theories. she also teaches a bit on the tapestry course because someone went off on maternity leave and she turned out to be quite good at that. the powers that be at the school are trying to shoehorn her more into the tapestry section and let a 24 year old wizz kid film boy take over her cinema lectures. hes brilliant. Roberta plots against him in her head. she imagines cartoon like scenarios with anvils and dynamite. as for the skirt. its known in the school as “that skirt.” whenever theres an opening, an event, a situation where people will congregate and quaff vino and wax lyrical, they always mutter and chortle and wonder, do you think Roberta will wear “that skirt” her statement skirt. if she does wear it, people are actually quite kind and understand that she is clinging to an old manifestation of herself as an outlandish upstart. plus, she mixes the most amazing drinks so often she is behind a bar where people dont actually see the monstrous garment. shes actually really nice underneath and if people stroke her ego a little bit she gives them signed copies. of her book. she is ageless.
aw roberta and her skirt.
gemini, leo rising, moon in scorpio, venus in pisces, mars in her hand aimed at anyone who smirks.
hahahaha. what fun.
-
No. you’re all suffering from identity confusion. Her name is Ophelia Hirsute and she was born on 26th May 1977. She was born at Surfer’s Paradise soon after dawn so has her Sun and Jupiter rising in her 1st in opposition to Sagg Neptune in 7th. She was a bright and beautiful little girl and excelled academically developing into a tall slim gifted media studies graduate. She has Venus and Mars in conjunction in her 11th opposing Pluto in her 5th so found in her teens that men were her playthings and with Neptune in 7th could create an illusion of fidelity. Using her skills she won the heart of a bald millionaire property developer and became his PA organising all his social calandar. He was absolutely phobic about his lack of hair so wore a very expensive hair piece always. Her Saturn is in Leo so she was determined to shine. With Mercury in Taurus she was skilled at running classy events where the food and ambiance delighted everyone. Being a low Gemini she began thinking she could do anything she wanted to. She cast her eyes around for an even bigger fish and landed a rival property developer and the bald one caught her pashing him at the Magic Millions dinner. He sacked her on the spot humiliating her in front of the IN crowd. This outfit was her choice to wear to the next gala event with the new property developer knowing that the bald one would attend and all who attended would realise she was insulting him. Her Uranus in Scorpio and Pluto in 5th had been satisfied and her desire for revenge, but stylishly.
-
bugger, that should be just before dawn to have 1st house Sun….

EWW That is digusting. I am a Gemini lady (With Leo Rising!) & I think that is the most repulsive item of clothing I’ve ever seen. Then again I’m really not a fashionista so I’m sure there’s worse.
I’m really getting tired of all the Gem-bashing that goes on here. We’re not all nasty and awful, and I recognise Mystic made the distinction between high & low, but astrology should help us understand how complex people are, not generalise about them.
Having said that, ‘Delilah’ sounds excruciating.
-
ariel I’ve got some very good gemini friends and I had to flip all their good qualities into a fantasy horror of a woman. Actually one of the most giving of herself, self effacing, gentle people I know is a Gemini. Please don’t take the ‘horror’ to heart.
-
Thanks for the sensitivity to my over-senstivity leonine. Nice to hear you have lots of good Gemini friends

I’m a fairly shy INFJ so I often don’t identify with a lot of the extrovert & ’shallow’ aspects one might expect from the air/fire in my chart.
-
-
Don’t worry ariel, all the signs cop a pasting from time to time. Wait til we start on Capricorns. My personal strategy is to come back with chutzpah!
-
-
-
pleased it made you laugh aqua++ My first attempt at making up an astro story. I figured she’d have to have a bloody good reason to wear that skirt. I thought maybe to honour her poor dead orangutan but that just seemed wrong on so many levels

I’m unashamedly borrowing from some of you for my entry. I’ll go with a half made up name – Babs Berry-Bidet, (originally Cheryl Roach) also hails from some outpost: Wagga, Dapto or Queensland. Passed her BA by plagiarism and giving blow jobs.
Chart is all air and fire. Has written a self published tome inspired by Ayn Rand’s Fountainhead which has sold 7 copies, 2 bought by financier husband from Townsville who is about to be indicted for Ponzi scheme. The rest sold at a dinner party to clients after a desert of cocaine, chartreuse and melted bombe alaska.
Initially thought Bauhaus was a noise made by dogs and during the art market bubble became a Bauhaus collector. Insist she owns the only set of Bauhaus tea towels in existence. Bought from a dealer she met on the internet, known only by the name of E Bay.
Owns a chihuahua named Ludwig Von Wittgenstein, and her idols are Sai Baba, Karl Lagerfeld, Vivienne Westwood and Bjork.
Was once hospitalized for laxative abuse.
-
I think she’s a leo not a gemini – the hair fetish thing, who else would want to wear a mane out of the house?
Most Geminis I know are far too practical to wear this….And her name is Leila. She lives in Paddington and drives a silver BMW.
-
all these stories remind me of the Australian textile and wallpaper designer – Florence Broadhurst. She was born in rural Queensland but lied about her upbringing, most people believed she was English. She had an amazing life and was a talented singer and painter as well. Florence was a Leo with moon in Aries… neptune & pluto in Gemini. I wonder if she had a Gemini ascendent? She was a red head in her later years – murdered in 1977. Jane Campion directed a movie of her life. I adore her designs.
-
Scorpy r, I love her designs…well most of them….some were a bit ott for me. At one of my phases I would have loved to have a room with her stampeding horses in blue……
-
-
i love the skirt. would get around in it if the top part wasn’t printed. plain black would be fine. or better yet, deep, blood red. what the hell.
also love the chair.
but i am an aquarius sun and moon with virgo asc…go figure. -
Yes Leila went to Bali and lived in Ubud for a while. She had a fling with a local for a few days and got advice from Ketut the local medicine man. But the heat and dirt and poverty all got too much so she only lasted there 3 weeks… but it still inspires here when she feels a bit empty and over it all.
She has a small altar she bought at denpasar airport which she burns rose musk incense on when she remembers and she bought loads of cheap printed balinese fabric there which she had made up into the skirt (above the horrendous hair.)
-
maybe it’s not a skirt but really is a fabric munching sporran with an unstoppable appetite that had eaten her skirt and her knickers, devouring its way upwards so she has to walk quickly along the catwalk while she still has some clothes on and is threatening to digest the entire collection and then the entire fashion industry. Please someone kill that greedy sporran to save the fashion world!!
-
Ha, ha, funny. Like “The Blob” (old movie) that over ran the town.
I could only imagine though how uncomfortable that hair would be if the backs of my legs got hot and sweaty…Yuck.
There was one designer on Project Runway that did his Olympus Fashion Week line with real hair. Tom Gunn, mentor, co-host, whatev, thought it was ghastly. It has some strange morbid feeling to me too.
My first impression too libran tiger was that she’s a leo because of the hair thing.
Anyway, that lower Gem needs a wax in her lower area!!
-
or maybe she’s having an intimate relationship with Cousin It…..
-
Good one too, lol
I did learn two new words today….merkin and sporran. Have never in my life here in the states heard of shaving the private and then wigging it.
Hilarious.

That’s because you live in a warmer location Sweetpea

This is the funniest thread I’ve read in a long time.
Here’s my take. Born in 1968 to parents who subsequently became Rajneeshi devotees, she was christened Jennifer Ball, but renamed Kali in the mid-seventies when the orange people got hold of her parents. She rechristened herself at the age of 15, called herself India, and getting rid of her last name by deftly marrying a handsome young British blowin with the surname Fyfe-Jones. Always a pretty girl, and always quite aware of it, when it became clear that Fyfe-Jones wasn’t going to make a packet and didn’t have the family connections she’d quite imagined from his double-barrelled surname, she divorced him and quickly moved to Sydney where she enrolled in an art course majoring in photography, seduced one of her more well-known lecturers (guest lecturer actually, he was a well-known painter by the name of Robert Aars), and promptly moved into his ramshackle mansion.
By this time her father had left her mother and started a caravan home on the Gold Coast. India is estranged from her mother, who now lives in a Buddhist centre somewhere in California. Since the mid-eighties, India has told anyone who asks that her parents died in a light plane accident in Tanzania when she was 11 and that she was brought up by her aunt who was a white witch.
As Robert Aars’ star ascended, so did India Fyfe-Jones’ , she being his principle model and most of his paintings being nudes done in thick oil paint and verging on the pornographic. She had by now finished the art course and on the strength of her lover’s name and not a great deal of talent, she set herself up as a freelance photographer and began photographing the Australian art-scene. In her quieter moments, she decided to document the male prostitutes at the Wall in Kings Cross, and within a year she was showing her prints in small but fashionable galleries in Sydney and Melbourne. her photographs also tended to focus on the pornographic and the degrading, and she exhibited a much greater talent for finding the seediest subjects in the most humiliating circumstances than she ever did for photographing them. But the critics loved it, and being a Gemini, India was able to provide numerous spiels to lend intellectual credit to her work.Then Robert Aars, who was well into his seventies, died of a sudden heart attack, and India, who was 26 by now, wrote a memoir called ‘Split To The Core – My Life With Robert Aars’. Overnight his paintings doubled in price all over the world, and India became famous as his young, beautiful and talented muse. For almost 18 months, she flew around the world promoting her book, giving interviews about Robert, and taking up work which had been offered on the strength of her book.
Alas, the international media was much crueler than the local. Several reviewers and galleries cottoned on to the fact that India’s own work was exploitative shite (one of the reviewers compared it to Madonna’s ‘Sex’ book and said that India’s work suffered by comparison), and after one and a half years of glittery non-stop self-promotion, she was called out as a charlatan. She high-tailed it back to Sydney before the bad press followed her home.
Once in Sydney she announced that she’d done all she could in the medium of still photography, and turned her hand to installation art, which she has been doing ever since. She made a mint out of her book and her overseas tours, and being a clever Gem, she invested it in mining futures and made an even bigger mint.To date, she has not done anything further either worthwhile or notable. In the late nineties she had a nervous breakdown which probably had a lot to do with hitting her peak at 26. She applies for, and gets, numerous grants from the Australia Council and other arts funding bodies, and she regularly exhibits in fashionable galleries. Despite this, her art is still shite and boring, but it doesn’t matter, she gives glib interviews and the reviewers are entranced. She swans it at openings, dressed to kill in numbers like this hair skirt, and people who know her run for cover and hide in the toilets before she can corner them to talk about herself and her next concept. She lives in Aars’ old mansion, which she had renovated, and from here she still gives the occasional interview or sends out a press release regarding her work. She likes to appear fashionably dishevelled when interviewed, and gives out that she is a vegetarian when the truth is that she lives on chilled white wine and Marlboro lights. In her almost empty fridge there is Yoplait light, some marinated olives, and her cocaine stash in a caviar tin. She scares the hell out of most men, the walls of her mansion are covered in Aars’ pornographic portraits of her which take away most of the mystery, plus she exudes a certain desperation. other women avoid her like the plague because she is so self-obsessed. She is not even good in bed, but of course, she is a legend. The only people who actively seek her out are her reviewers, and journalists looking for filler for weekend magazines. In her darker moments, she wonders whether, if she had her time over again, she should have just stayed married to Fyfe-Jones and had a brood of kids.
-
That was fantastic, love it!

This skirt looks like something Eddie from Ab Fab would show up to fashion week in. I have no idea about the astro and I am a little worried about offending people but roughly, low Gem, some leo… plus something to make her think she is creative, yet always tries too hard.
Somebody who wants to be interesting, different and exotic, but misses the mark. I am not sure if anyone has read/done “the Artists way”, but this girl would be a ‘crazy maker’. No talent of her own. Just sucks out other peoples (Talent scout? Art peddler?).
Always on the outskirts of cool, name drops to ‘lesser beings’… would have been first in line for the emperor’s tailor (you know… the one who makes the invisible clothing).
I get the feeling that there would be some art-cool older man that she would constantly be lusting after and trying to impress. Social climber (low, low, low cap in there somewhere? Maybe?).
I am not so good with the full blown stories and the making up of names… but maybe not a Jennifer, but maybe a really old-school name like Marjorie which she changed to become more exotic and goes completely off tap if anyone calls her by her old name. -
After returning from the killing fields of France Herbert Longbottom was a scarred man. His childhood sweetheart and fiance’ Daisy May Scullthorpe hardly recognised him as the troup vessel arrived back into Sydney Harbour. After some weeks of rest, Daisy’s dad, a well connected tobacco trader had organised for Herbert to lease and work a small tobacco farm in North Queensland.
There first daughter Amelia grew up working hard, side by side with her dad and the huge muscular black natives bought in from the Pacific Islands. Tobacco growing and her second love, interpretive dance, filled her life, but it was only after her 3rd unwanted pregnancy that Amelia was ready to leave the land, her damaged brooding father and Rufi her beloved native lover to pursue her career in the dance halls of the big smoke, Sydney. The depression had just begun to bite deeply into the lives of Sydney siders, the dance halls boomed. Amelia found work in the Crown+Anchor on George St. Her performance both confused and stunned the audience. The self taught interpretive dancer from ‘up north’ had the city at her feet. Wearing nothing but a long mane of horse hair and a g string, Amelia would entrance her audience. Though trouble wasn’t far off. While once interpreting the ‘rise of communism in the baltic states’, her long mane caught fire, screams from the audience did nothing to disturb her deep, trance like state. She completed the piece, collapsed and was rushed to St. Vincents hospital in a serious condition.
She awoke 3 days later, unaware of where she was, two gentle, piercing eyes met hers. These eyes belonged to Dr. Bruce Wainright. The man who she would soon find out had saved her life. Sitting in the strangest chair she had ever seen, smoking a cigarette, Bruce smiled, got up and held the cigarette to her lips. She pulled the smoke deeply into her lungs and sighed. Amelia’s mind raced. Who is this man ? What the hell was that chair he was sitting in and why does this feel so right ?-
A suprisingly poignant & literary tale. Do you have a day job at Mills & Boon Anon?
-
She finally looked down at her own body, lying under a crisp white cotton sheet. The pain of her wounds emerged, she slipped the sheet away with her hand, and looked from her naked pale sweating body to the eyes of the one who she knew would bring her much pleasure, and oh, so much pain. bruce
