EVA B is a costume rental, anything buyer, late night jungle, & coffee shop
you can find this mad house on St-Laurent (2013) in OFCOURSE Montréal
everyone knows (or soon will know) that my lovely home is welcome & warm & weird
(descriptions of the word WEIRD vary on occasion)
to TRUELY experience the 3 W's of mont-REAL head to EVA B!
you can't buy & keep e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g there
well you almost can
but
you have to be awsome enough to convince the lady there
the store is FULL of useless goods, tacky nothings, unbeleivable somethings, all that jazz!
its ALL there!
Pop-Eye pants! hippie hair! gangster gators! fetish boots! penguin suits!
EVERY DAMN THING
a lot of filmmakers go & rent the clothes to fit their mise-en-scene(s)
(thats WHY its a RENTAL shop!)
but...
like i said SOME-THINGs can be bought... due to your awsomeness
EVA B also BUYS your shit! (shit= clothing, art, etc, SHIT!)
if your broke (like most of us city cats)
& wear only 2 different outfits (like most of us city cats)
sell the rest of your gear instead of donating it to the big blue bin
(homeless people take from them bins anyway,
they never get to where they should
nothing against the homeless
but
MOST of them are perfectly able to get a job)
or
if your an artist: make it, show it, sell it, fuck it!
HOW DOES EVA B FIT THE THREE W's?
(welcoming & warm & weird)
well, lets start with WEIRD
other than the mountain of fake legs peeking through the window
there is just ONE DISPLAY
this ONE WEE DISPLAY that catches me EVERYTIME
i get the whole shock-art thing...
but this is something you can't help but STOP & STARE at
next to the mountain of fake legs
in the window
there is an 'artwork' &\ or MASTERPIECE
with PUBIC HAIRs & the names of whom they belong to below
&
there is a few (i recall) bloody tampons just DANGLING...
dry & bloody & used TAMPONS!
so yes, WEIRD! shocking...whatever
what isn't shocking these days...SIMPLY - weird!
but EVA B is verrrrrrrry WARM! (if you do not think so buy a coffee)
the atmosphere is so naked
everyone and everything is too honest it makes one feel cozy & cuddled
it is so warm it melts the welcoming like a sweet soup
other than the welcoming being warm
the shop is open late late nights (hours change, i guess?)
you can dress in drag
dance around & be silly
&\ or do whatever you want that wont put you into jail
& nobody will kick ya out
unless
your a mean theif
or
unless people are too damn tired to work any longer
but wow
go there! experiences the 3 W's
or
MAKE IT, SHOW IT, SELL IT, FUCK IT
