The Pain Game

Morphine Generation Clothing

Sometimes, just looking at what passes for fashion these days is painful.

You’re all for audacious and Warholian, but most takes on ’80s revival wear makes you crave a healthy dose of morphine.

Morphine Generation, that is. The fall collection of badass tees and hoodies is sure to numb the pain with rock-inspired shirts showcasing metallic graphics of skulls, swords, and kitschy crests.

Score a style high in a black three-quarter length pea coat adorned with a silver shield on the shoulder. Space out in a cozy long-sleeve shirt with the words luvsick en verité emblazoned across the back. And, just in time to come down for a soft landing, there’s a super-nubby number with a giant silver skull on a purple, gray, or white background.

So be sure to stock up.

But, as with any bold fashion statement, take care not to overdose.

Available at Blue Genes, 3400 Around Lenox Road NE, suite 214, Buckhead (404-231-3400). To see styles, go to morphinegeneration.com.
