Metamorphosis - Fashion Illustration

“Survival of the fittest”, depicts a self-reliant predator surviving amidst turmoil and danger.

The outfit, reflecting the predator, is edgy and dark. There is a balance between construction and deconstruction. The front of the jacket and the pants are sleek and pressed while the sleeves and back of the jacket have scraps of leather pieced together. The contrast gives off a raw, wilder feel of a Survival savaging for scrapes and parts to further protect herself.

To accentuate the outfit, accessories were also incorporated. The bones and twine waist wrap around give it a slightly tribal look. The skull headgear is meant to protect her head from danger, at the same time, intimidate her opponents. Thus, during a confrontation, gives her an edge over them. The harness consisting rib cage bones and bone choker protects her lithe body, yet accentuate her figure and sexuality. Little bones, like teeth are her spoils of her victories, which she proudly displays them.

Metamorphosis occurs when she veers from an ordinary human to an animalistic predator in the face of danger. I believe that each person have an animal buried within themselves. With this outfit, she unleashed her hidden animal and characteristics.
