The skull's moment as a high-fashion item is probably passing; even skull diva Loree Rodkin is wearying of them: "When everyone started making skulls, and they were on underwear sold at Sears, they lost their allure." The icon's prevalence in the mainstream, however, has only just begun. As with Ugg boots and Juicy sweatsuits, the rest of us mortals are going to be facing skullwear—sheets, underpants, stroller covers, Baby Gap T-shirts (at right)—for a long time to come. After all, the skull has stuck around through the centuries not just because of its symbolic heft but also because of its graphic impact. And thanks to fashion's relentless self-cannibalizing, the skull motif is, in the end, as unkillable as Michael Myers.
