Ashley Eckstein Announces Geek Fashion Show for Comic-Con; How You Can Participate
 |
In association with Nerdist – presumably as a result of her use of Sith powers on Chris Hardwick (above) – Her Universe founder Ashley Eckstein has announced a new line of “Geek Couture” fashions for women, inspired by nerdy properties, to debut at a fashion show July 24th at Comic-Con. Her Sith mind must have waned a bit from that whole “dealing in absolutes” thing, because thirty fans will have the opportunity to get their designs entered in the show as well, with two winners selected to co-design new clothing items for Her Universe with Ashley.
Keep reading to see our gallery of Ms. Eckstein’s designs, and who knows – maybe you’ll be inspired to enter. If anyone manages to successfully submit a Topless Robot themed design that gets chosen, I’ll find a way to get you a special prize myself.
