Something's Got To Give

  • Megan Fowler


Modern women are expected to do, and have, it all.
Our lives have changed dramatically in a generation, and yet despite our progress we must still grapple with outdated expectations:
Do you think he’ll propose? So you can’t cook? I bet you’d look pretty if you smiled. You don’t want kids? Why are you getting so emotional? It's just a job title, why does it matter? You look tired.
The juxtaposition of clean modern fashion set against a vivid retro blue kitchen exemplifies the challenges we face as modern women in a chaotic world. One where we’re expected to achieve professionally and personally all whilst looking as picture perfect as an Instagram filter.
