Avant Garde:My newest Exploration

Well, you always want to step out of that comfort box, try something new and jump out there! So I decided, if I could learn to understand the statements of Avant Garde, I could, well do just about anything. So here is my shot! I started with an object, and expanded my horizons. A feather, light and innocent, twisted into the darkness with this latest look!

Again, sticking with what is true to me, a pop of color was necessary. So to start this, I took a feathered headpieces and manipulated it into an entire outfit. Using an avant black metal plated outfit from the House of Beningbrough as my base, I let the feathers surround me, and take over the bidding. I had fun with it and I expressed myself through it. As I pulled the feather down to surround me, I got a fantastical feel from it so, I continues through for what ended up being a Avant Fantasy.

 

Well, this is definitely one of my favorite head-shot photo's I have done in a while.  I wanted to keep the purple feathers in the face, while continuing to create a sense of mystery and confusion. A black neck corset creates a wonderful face line, sealing the lips behind a black mask. To pull the black up across my face, I turned to Madrid Solo. And to full the feathers and colors int my eyes, feather lashes. Lastly, when I think of Avant Garde, Lady Gaga comes to mind, so to honor her and her talents, the finishing touch was a pair of Gaga style shoes.
