        ^ That looks more like an unsafety pin to me.

              My contribution is more of a satirical one since this is an accessory that comes with jeans from Altamont (a skateboard clothing line). I had a friend who worked there and ended up with about 12 of these things sitting around. It came attached to a loop sewn into the denim and I left this one on as a joke one night and someone took a photo.



              Chain: check
              safety pin: check
              dagger pendant: check
              real blackbird feather: check

              suggested retail price for the jeans and the dangle accessory: $65
              Serious flair.

                  BTW, if anyone needs nice pins for their cardigans, like the ones Yohji uses, they can be had in any button/trimmings store. 2 pins for $3 at M&J trimmings, for example.

                    I have a ton of them I bought on my last trip to Jamaica, I am yet to figure out what to do with them............was experimenting with them the other day and the results weren't to my liking.

                    the Marc Jacobs one is Kinda cool though..............

                      Do what Yohji does.

                        That MJ thing is appalling, it's some kind of hot topic version of punk or something. Barf. It's also way too shiny
                        I have yet to see a designer safety pin that isn't gross. This trend is full of stuff that is either monstrous or banal, and I am a big lover & user of safety pins

                          I wear black kilt pins rather often as brooches. They are pretty cheap to pick up and are unusual looking enough that it doesn't look like you are wearing a normal safety pin. Although that being said I remember McQ had a coloured safety pin that looked rather nice.

                            These seem quite nicely large at 3.9", also available in some nifty colors. Don't know how I feel about the branding, though: http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/RAF+SI...s/sr_salemen80

                              but without it it's just a $1.50 pin :-)
