After the atrocious Christmas of 2007, Suicide Girls rebounded in January of 2008.
Although the month started slow, it had plenty of good stuff (and some great stuff).
Kicking things off was @fenshwa with her boobs pushed together in The Hampton .
[always a good move for the gals with smaller tits]
A couple of days passed after that set.
I was getting worried that...

Reading your well written "History of Suicidegirls" blogs full of art and popculture references is my new favourite way of rediscovering all those great classic suicidegirl sets :)

December 2007 was a bit of a blue Christmas at SG.
It happens.
Some months just aren’t as explosive as others.
Sometimes our respective cups overfloweth.
Other times we think, “Damn. These sets kinda suck.”
But, as always, I’m gonna try to keep it positive here—by showing you the GOOD STUFF.
The month started well enough with @toroia in The Masquers Ball .
Super-strong set....

Interesting music! I can hear the influence of the various artists in each piece. 🙂
bob_dylan:
Thank you so much for listening 😭🫂 @dhyani I really appreciate it!!!
Here in Texas (where I live), we are roasting our fucking asses off this summer.
But thank Christ I can go back into the SG archives…to the cool, autumnal days of November 2007 and sit beside a Crystal Lake with @toalmostbe —a Hopeful who never made it.
This one actually breaks my heart.
Get a load of those all-world jugs.
What the fuck?!?
But you...

Here’s where things get weird.
And fun.
October 2007 was when the mother lode of unholy awe dropped on SG.
But before we get to that exceedingly-controversial (and hilarious) set, let’s have some titillation, shall we?
I really admire the creativity of @maiwan in her very strong set Tear My Heart Out .
This set has a very coherent philosophical message (even if it is...

September of 2007 was a month filled with a plethora of Hopeful sets.
But even so, the Suicide Girls were holding down the fort.
Doing just that was @snazzy in Blue Sheers .
This set makes nice use of reflections in glass.
A bit like the iconic shot from Wong Kar-wai’s Chungking Express.
But things really got cooking with @lylith in My Masquerade .
This...

Sheesh don't know how to write one long comment on here it appears. I don't model here any more as I've never been much of a competitive person plus I know my look is a niche market. But I still log in every once in a while to check out what's going on. I'm glad my sets are remembered

Thank you so much for your gracious comments, @copper 💛
