A collection that addresses the unending quest for the ‘ideal female body” and the unrealistic body standards that women have been subjected to through the ages. Drawing silhouette inspiration from the Air Shorts and weight loss body suits that were popular in the ‘70s, as well as lingerie, which was meant to be supportive clothing but is sexualised. The idea of how women are forced to believe that they need to change every aspect of their appearance is what inspired the full body ensembles, while the constant pressure of having to “look sexy” for the male gaze is the reason behind the corset like details. A wearable installaion that mocks the unreasonable idea of the “perfect body” today.
