Let’s have some fun!
Summer 2005.
MAY DAY! MAY DAY!
Incoming set from @opahl —the wonderful Bright Ribbons .
This set pays homage to my favorite color CLASH: pink and green.
If you wanna evoke Sex Pistols, go pink and green.
But this shoot really has a nice ‘80s neon vibe to it.
It is VIBRANT.
It caught my eye.
In economics,...

You are so amazing, @bettina ❣️ Spoiling me with these comments 😭 I’m so honored that you stopped by 🙏🙏🙏🫂🫂🫂
Mission statement: what can be learned about SG strictly by looking at the photo sets?
Can a sort of history be cobbled together by going back through the archival photos?
Assume I know nothing.
And I assume you know nothing.
And we dive blithely into a vast catalog of pin-up wonder.
Our expedition currently has us in February of 2005.
SG started in autumn 2001....

The great thing about the SG archives is that you can go back in time—to whatever era you like.
It might be the summer of 2023, but you can always go back to the winter of 2004 to keep yourself frosty.
November of 2004 had so many good sets that it’s almost overwhelming.
But the first one to really stand out to me was Cupcake...

Some great finds in this one. Superb insights and writing, sir.
bob_dylan:
Thank you, Mr. @jake238 !!! I really appreciate that, man 🫡
The grind never stopped on Suicide Girls. Once the site was up and running, people expected more photo shoots, more new models, more variety…MORE MORE MORE.
Fortunately SG had more to give as it rolled into autumn of 2004.
Dropped Stitch sees @melly knitting a fall scarf.
And (wow!) is this set special!!
I really, really adore this one. What a divine model.
But summer...

As we in the Northern Hemisphere enjoy (endure) the summer of 2023, it’s worth looking back to the summer of 2004 to see what the girls of SG we up to during those hot early days.
These sets may be “old”, but they are shot-through with GOLD.
On July 10, @albertine released a self-shot MASTERPIECE entitled Antique Dress .
Indeed, for awhile in July of...

Great job man, it's nice to trip down memory lane
bob_dylan:
Thank you so much, @adam_bovary 🫡 I know a lot of these sets are probably unknown to most people on here. I’m excited to keep going through the archives and getting to everyone’s favorite gals. I really appreciate you reading and thank you very much for the comment 🙏
In reviewing the sets in the SG archives, there is a desire to FLY through the photo spreads as fast as possible—to get to the PRESENT time.
But when one encounters many, many quality sets which were released in a small window of time, it is only fair to slow the pace a bit and give this wonderful work the attention it deserves.
So it...

Thank you so much for reading, @jake238 🙏 And thank you for helping to fill in details I’m missing. I really appreciate that 🫡
How could the site follow the explosive Lemmy/Dave Grohl set?
THAT is a hard act to follow.
But the industrious Girls of Suicide did it.
Set by set.
Climbing into our hearts.
And making us fall in love with them.
First was @aiki on Dec 15, 2003 with Soft and Sweet .
She is definitely one of the most special models to have ever graced...

Did you know there’s a multi-girl SG set featuring Lemmy (Motörhead) and Dave Grohl (Nirvana)?!?
Apparently not too many do.
The set only has 540 likes.
And it’s been out for about 20 years.
But let’s talk first about the GIRLS that make SUICIDE special.
Starting right at mid-year of 2003, things got going in earnest when @lennon released the beautiful sepia-toned On Stage on...
