For her Istituto Marangoni collection seen here, Daizy Shely has chosen to explore volumes and silhouettes in black and white. “The Dark Kingdom” was inspired by Pierrot, the sad French clown, 17th century Del Arte comedy, as well as the 16th century fashion from the time of Queen Elizabeth I. “Queen Elizabeth had dresses of all colors, but white and black were her favorite colors as they symbolized virginity and purity. I turned it into something completely different, I made the gorgera with hard fabrics as leather or taffeta and gave it a modern look.” Gorgera refers to silhouette of the neck and wrist cuffs from popular dress styles in the 16th century.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
