I had the pleasure of discovering La Rissa at INFEST 2023 and I was instantly in awe. Their performance was so electrifying that I couldn't tear myself away - I left my shop stall so I could watch their full set and then there she was after the show - NOT WEARING anything KatzLittleFactory. I had to fix that! ⛓️
Larissa chose our 'BABE BIJIOUX' tiny chain headpiece, which I think was so fitting - I love that match because of their song 'JUST OBEY' with the 'babe-daddy' lyrics! 🖤 Got a signed CD an a band tee, obviously.
Band interview with ELEKTRO VOX and she kept on the headpiece throughout the night!🖤

We celebrate two Autumns with All Things FRAYLE
Doomer's heart beats slow - a match made in hell. 🔥🫀
I didn't know who they were until Bela Lugosi's Dead was released. Three music videos, many live shows, tour posters, album artworks and more later, my passion for heavy music combined with stunning dark visuals, has made me a lifelong fan. Count me in!
'Bela Lugosi's Dead' - Oct 2021
Gwyn is wearing our SPIKE head harness in glossy back with spiky muzzle. It was the lightweight version on that strap back then.
'All the Things I Was' - Oct 2022
Weeping against my screen watching a secret preview and my work on display. LEVEL UP! Gwen Strang wearing our DRIBBLE headpiece with custom clear headband and jet black glass crystals. I just LOVE the way the piece moves when she sings, synchronized with the pendulum. The dead body is wearing the SPIKE head harness.
The video came out week before Damnation festival 2022 and we managed to chat about how they filmed it and and all their other props - wondering how to dispose of a bloody nylon sheet from the video and where, so they don't get a call about a crime scene. Blog solely about meeting them in a bit!
'Head Down' - June 2023
Lucky again to see my pieces on another music video and this shattering cover of Sound Garden. Slow'n'Heavy, BABE!
Absolute QUEEN of all things sparkly in the night. Wearing our CALLA headpiece containing chain face harness front with clear spike headband.
European tour poster belongs here with our DRIBBLE mask in black.
That fills my heart every time I open Spotify.

Second blog to follow with meeting them at their UK debut at Damnation festival.

I was hoping for snowy winter landscape, or at least a gloomy day to set the mood right, instead we got a very sunny afternoon off to take some photos with one of my new mask designs. So, hiding in the shadows of the cathedrals and back alleys, looking for shade, I present to you - A.
Make up - cat eye liner vs ''Mad Max'' black oily eyes.

]]>First blog entry from KatzLittleFactory here. I will try and write about various sparkly events in my work and show you some of behind the scenes and inside the factory itself.
One of the most exciting collaborations this year is having to make accessories for the band Ashbury Heights from Sweden! The guys had a gig at Infest Festival (Bradford, UK 2014) and I got to meet and hang out with them for a bit. I have admired Tea`s style and modeling for a while already and it was real fun getting to know them both. It was one of those times when a design and material just instantly fit and found their new owner.
The main piece is iridescent mirror purple body brace with black Cyber Flowers, custom made colour for the shiny purple lady Tea Thime, combined it with various size Cyber Flowers and she clipped one on Anders coat and few on her heels and around.
Spying on the band on Instagram. #AshburyHeights
Behind the scenes video - beautiful Tea and Anders wearing KatzLittleFactory accessories. Promo shoot for their upcoming album "The Victorian Flowers". Photographed by Josefine Jonsson in Stockholm 2016, dress by Coquetry Clothing.
Really excited to be able hold this album (The Victorian Flowers) in my hands soon and a see a small part of me in it.
