The retro-sci-fi trend comes in and out of fashion every so often. The most recent offering which has caught my attention comes via Japanese Avant-garde label Undercover. Lead by maverick designer Jun Takahashi, the brand’s Spring 2011 collection stems from a comic book-style story entitled Underman (created by Takahashi), depicting a super-robot’s quest of saving the world from soul-stealing demons.
The look-book for this collection brilliantly portrays the collection’s concept while displaying the garments in a way that doesn’t disrupt the flow of imagery > >

Being a child of the early 90s, I believe my curiosity for all things alien-robotic is likely due to my big brother never letting me play with his transformer action figures. Cheers bro, the following Top 5 Aliens, Robots, and Alien-Robots I Like at the Moment is for you.
5. Transformers – the television series, 1984-1987 >>
4. The robot that has the ability to project images in the Knights of Cydonia video by Muse >>
3. Rosie from The Jetsons (who wouldn’t want her at home?)
2. Whoever those sexy creatures in Alexander McQueen’s Spring 2010 RTW show were >>

1. Gort, the alien-robot from the original 1951 movie The Day The Earth Stood Still. 2008 has nothing on that dude >>
That is all.
