VIOLATE ME - ss22
This collection takes inspiration from the development of gender equality and the sexualisation of women's bodies over the past century. Paying homage to personal family photos and our families tailoring business. The designs expose taboo areas of the body with the aim of provoking conversation around women's rights and the status of the sexualisation of their bodies.
Is there longevity in the progress women's have made in the past century?
Thus, the garments create an illusion of modestly covering the body whilst also revealing more socially unacceptable areas. Taking societal stereotypes surrounding women and creating a statement. How have our subconscious, rights and actions developed over the years.
