Tiny Bangs: a sicko kiddie clothing line for jaded LA pedos
''Several anons called for a DIG on this new and disgusting
kiddle clothing biz out of LA.''
Tiny Bangs is a recently-launched child clothing line started by Kirsten Bosio, which features “alternative” clothing for “all kids,” although the items I saw look like they are designed for girls. The business seems to be new, online-only, and has no shopfront (didn’t find an address).
This dig is all about the website, TinyBangs.com.
First, it’s a pretty new site; no entries older than a few months. Second, it’s totally creepy; don’t go there if you can’t tolerate borderline kiddy porn. Third, the biz is run out of the L.A area. No surprise there. Fourth, Tiny Bangs has been reviewed so far by the LA Weekly, The Fabulous Stains, Good Day LA, Forbes, Vice, and Voyagela. (Try there for future digs.) They seemed to think this stuff is cool. Ugh.

Many pics of young girls dressed like cheap whores, but in outfits that also feature princessy accessories, angel wings and “little girl” hairbands and jewely in bright colors. Most or all of the pics are the daughters of Kirsten Bosio: Naomi (who looks 6 - 8) and Anni (3 - 5). It’s hard to tell their exact ages because of all the makeup and adult gear.
Then there’s the Twinkie Chan collection skimpy crocheted tops that barely cover the chest. Chan makes other crocheted food items, like banana splits. Check out the book “Twinkie Chan's Crocheted Abode a la Mode: 20 Yummy Crochet Projects for Your Home."
In the lower left , click INFO to get to a pic labeled “SICK SAD GIRL , and the artist’s story. She has Crohn’s disease, which is sad, but the story is mixed in with creepy pics of her kids—and her colon!!! (I’t gross.) So the word “SICK” has a double meaning.
INFO
Designer/mom Kirsten Bosio seems pretty self-centered. It’s all about her and not her kids:
Art as an escape works. Art as a weapon to wield against all the terrible shit thrown at you. Art as a journal, a friend, an encouragement. Not to bring it back to parenthood again, but being a visible, struggling human who strives for betterment by turning that frustration and helplessness into something beautiful has to be the best gift you can give your kids. If everything goes right, they will grow up empathetic to others and kind to themselves. Isn't that exactly what the world needs more of?
BLOG
The blog is more self-obsessed, artsy crap (but more tolerable than the video; see below).
In F**** GENDER ROLES, Kirsten tell us that “Tiny Bangs as a brand is not specifically for girls. A lot of people assume it is and that doesn't always bother me because I understand why they think that. Clothing is never just for a specific gender though.”
In TINY BANGS AMA, younger daughter Anni tells us that
“before Tiny Bangs? I liked dressing up like cool characters and taking pictures. I was a vampire once. It was super scary. Naomi and me like to take all the fabric scraps from sewing projects and make doll clothes. I'm BUSY ALL THE TIME drawing portraits for all my friends at school. Just when I think I'm done, more kids want one.”
In MUSINGS ON JELLO AND AUTONOMY BY A NOT PERFECT MOM, Kirsten says, “It sounds contradictory to both parent and teach autonomy. How do you encourage independence when they are still dependent on you? You have this gelatinous blob of a human slowly growing into themselves. As their caretaker, you make sure the blob doesn't get hurt, but they still need their own time to harden into the shape that they will be.”
Enough. You get the picture. (Check out the Events if you want, I ran out of motivation.)
P. S. Kirsten also has a toddler son. Sigh.

Last, there’s the video. Yikes!
Incubation Ceremony, made in 2016 by Kirsten for Teddy Bosio–a sister, cousin? For a baby shower? Looks like it. God. I don’t used this word loosely, but this video is both pornographic and Satanic. Don’t watch it unless you’re prepared. Prayer helps:
