Being a Tim Burton lover, I've noticed my work becoming a lot looser, more bizarre and weirder each day! Here, I've drawn a man wearing a rough candy cane pattern shirt and a wacky yellow dickie bow. Now... the Fashion world is full of beautiful models. Admittedly I love the chiselled cheekbone look on a man, it's beautiful, but the guy I've created above maybe isn't what you'd visually call perfect? Is he entitled to wear such a funky, cool outfit when he doesn't fit the image of the person you think he should resemble? The world is cruel, you decide.
You'd probably choose the centre face. Why? You don't know what's inside his core. The unconventional character raises a lot of issues - what is real beauty? What does your face say about your clothes?
Everyone likes to look at a pretty face. Well, for about five minutes.. until it get's boring. I think the fashion world needs to be more aware of unconventional beauty, whether outer or inner. Beautiful clothes don't always reflect the inside of a person. Pretty dress + ugly personality = epic fail.
Clothes need to express what you don't always have the guts to say out loud.
Your face says a thousand words. Wear it bravely.
Expect the unexpected.
