Nightcrawler Hats
Description: A fashion illustration inspired by the Fresno Nightcrawler, a cryptid first sighted in 2007 in Fresno, CA on surveillance footage of a man’s front yard. It has been described as a ghostly pale, very tall pair of pants, or a white semi humanoid figure with no arms and extremely long legs. Sightings of similar creatures were reported in Yosemite National Park in 2011, as well as in Montana and Poland. Although some sightings have proven to be hoaxes, the original footage has yet to be disproven, and so the mystery remains. My design was inspired by the description of the Fresno Nightcrawler as a “tall pair of pants”, which reminded me of the high waisted sailor pants popular among women in the 1930s and 1940s.
