The LITTER Bear Cat Collection features two odd facial accessories that look more prankster and playful than wearable-chic. They are chain fringed jewelry pieces made to look like a mustache and beard. Dubbed The Criminal and The Biker, the faux facial hair accessories give women a masculine disguise that is weird and quirky.
Designed by San Francisco-based sisters Rachel Mann and Mackenzie Burdick, the LITTER Bear Cat Collection is mainly made up of vintage chains and costume jewelry found in flea markets and junk shops. It is this riff-raff of materials that inspire such strange designs. In the case of The Criminal and The Biker, these accessories attach to sunglasses to uniquely hang off feminine faces.
