idea
looking different cultures ideas of beauty in creating a vogue/fashion magazine cover for each.
the reasons for choosing to recreate a Vogue cover is due to the link Vogue has with women and beauty, I thought this would add to creating a stronger, obvious concept.
How will I communicate this?
Emulate the style of Vogue magazine – the poses, text, photography, backgrounds. Creating contrast between the person and and their cultures fashion ( jewellery/make up etc)
what I learnt from my research?
That beauty does not come under one category
what additional research do intend to do?
research further into certain tribes and their reasonings behind their beauty traits.
from my peer crit Hannah and Aaron suggested researching into images of well-known Western culture beauty, as I could combine the famous conventional fashion models/famous figures with tribal beauty traits (their jewellery/makeup etc) to make people link our cultures idea of beauty (the models/famous figures) with tribal/ other cultures beauty.
eg - Marilyn Monroe, with lip ring- this would be a powerful image as it would look odd, yet shows 2 different cultures ideas of beauty and how contrasting they are.
Hannah and Aaron also informed me that there are additions of 'Vogue around the world', ) Vogue magazines that are created for different countries. – this could be something I looking to, creating and magazine (cover) for certain cultural tribes/countries/cultures.
