Concept...
Throughout this project my concept has naturally evolved from my initial ideas when watching breathless for the first, second, and third time. Mt thought process started with... why would a well educated and talented women choose to have a relationship with a killer who is on the run? and who is in control in the relationship? I then started to look into Hybistophillia (aka Bonnie and Clyde syndrome) this is when women have sexual attractions towards men who commit particularly gruesome crimes. when researching this i came across many case studies but paid particular interest in those of Fred and Rosemary West and Myra Hindley and Ian Brady. I found it interesting how Myra was depicted as ''personifying evil'' and made out by the press to be the worse of the couple. I then looked into how couples interact after finding some photos of these interesting couples showing affection towards each other such as Freds arms around Rosemary which could be seen as controlling or affectionate because of the placing of his hands. This led me into my own photography of couples physically interacting and were their arms fell an hands were placed on each others bodies. This led me to my print as well as my silhouette. My collections work together as a couple, the pockets and drapes are placed in a way to encourage physical interaction between the menswear and menswear as well as reflect the patterns and forms created by it happening naturally.
