"Don't talk of love, I've heard the words before; It's sleeping in my memory. I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died. ... I am shielded in my armor"
-Simon and Garfunkel
When I designed this outfit (specifically the hat) I was having a crappy day. I wanted to be shielded/protected from the world.
Yet I still wanted the outfit to look "summery and fun" so I made it white vs. black. Instead of a heart broken introvert, she looks like she is on her way to the beach or a yacht and just wants to be protected from the sun. Ha ha.
I find it upsetting that many disregard fashion as an art form, all of my designs reflect my moods and feelings. I feel that in choosing what we are going to wear all of us (save nudists?) participate in a creative experience.
