Goblin and Crumb will be collaborating with Morph Clothing in the upcoming months. More information will be posted in the near future. For now check out their website posted below.
Founded in 2005, Morph Clothing is an original clothing line inspired by the underground subculture. Arlene, the designer, was featured in Gothic Beauty Magazine as one of the up and coming new fashion designers and quoted from her site:
“I am the type of person where I am changing all the time, so do my designs. I see my clothing line as a reflection and extension of myself. I take great pride in that.”
Morph will also be offering a small selection of eco-friendly clothing. At the moment, Arlene’s main focus lies in producing her clothing line and building a solid network, marketing her designs worldwide.

We have begun the process of adding more items into our ETSY store, including a few items you won’t find on our site. We’ll be adding quite a bit more over the next several months as well. We will be using ETSY as the place to sell our dolls and art prints rather than selling them off our own site.
At the moment you can find our new Star Belly Ornament, hand-sculpted form polymer clay and hand-painted. A blue suede rose pin sculpted from leather and our Dollhead Pin, which is also made with polymer clay. It is hand painted with details and coated with a protective gloss finish. A metal pin is attached to the back.

Ok, so the first post should be about Goblin and Crumb right? I plan to cover many things with this blog including posting about dark clothing and accessory sites, art dolls and sculpture as well as links to inspirational artists. Also, I plan to eventually write a few how-to articles on doll-making and other DIY projects and I’ll post up other independent artists as well with links to their sites and galleries. Sounds like a huge undertaking… well it won’t happen all at once, we’ll see how it goes 
Check out the latest additions to the Goblin and Crumb Store; The Triton Mask ($95 US) and the Pixy ($50 US). Both hand-sculpted and hand-painted and just in time for Halloween!
