Your Fashion Sense Bugs Me
Your Fashion Sense Bugs Me is a set of one-of-a-kind garments and accessories that blend the beauty and charm of insects with the fine art side of fashion.
Bugs have versatile forms and iconic silhouettes, which provided a way for me to incorporate my own illustrative style when designing new species. The practice of preserving and collecting insects also lends itself to the ways they are portrayed in my garments.
Combining techniques from sculpture and practical movie effects, the fashion set pushes the boundaries of what can be considered an article of clothing. The pieces are tied together with a combination of iridescence and insect forms, but can be worn individually as well.
