Dress, make-up, perspective and "Marilyn"'s expression...what can I say? Breathless.

I love this series - the way you link the story to the images, the allusion to fame and downfall - this is intelligent, beautiful art. Frames 14 and 15 are my favourites - am I right in thinking there's some earlier days Madonna influence in here? I don't know if that's just me over-interpreting the thing...anyway, it's wonderful, keep at it!

Thank you so much I really appreciate that. Not everyone looks at the whole series, or participates by reading the text and thinking about what the images and text mean together, so I really appreciate that you have!
My style is always somewhat influenced by early Madonna but honestly, this series is far more a combination of Marylin Monroe, modern fashion, and an obsession with perfectionism, particularly aesthetic perfectionism, both personally and as a nation.

Thanks again for your feedback...and I certainly will keep at it!!

You're welcome - real art needs real attention! I suppose I should've got the Monroe connection - I was interpreting some Madonna influence in the later frames, with the rebellious leather jacket look and all that...it felt very 80s to me
Anyhow, great stuff, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next!

Ahem, not leather jacket - my bad. But still, the concept is there.

oh my god. this series is amazing... they're all so beautiful by themselves but i would have REALLY missed out if i didnt look at them all in order, the concept is so amazing it's hard to convey into words

do you know from where she got that dress?

give-me-wings In reply to TheBizarreBirdcage [2010-05-16 20:56:35 +0000 UTC]

I did all the styling for this series; it's actually not a dress. It's a white tank top of mine, and I bought 20 yards of white tulle and just wrapped it around her waist, then tied a thick white ribbon into a bow around her waist. I also put my short crinoline underneath all the tulle to add volume.
