Oh Bondage Up Yours!

July 7, 2008 by WendyB

I’m tempted by this denim bondage skirt by Warhol Factory X Levis. It’s on sale at Barneys for $139, down from $200. It’s tricky to link to so just go to barneys.com and search for “bondage skirt.” “Oh Bondage Up Yours!” is my favorite song by 1970s British punk band X-Ray Spex. Poly Styrene, X-Ray…
