YOUR KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR IS MONEY.
Inspired by tough times, the pennies armour represents the little protection women have when they have very little money. Weak, fragile and barely enough to shield her body from outside harm, this piece was made to show that fragile vulnerability through wear.
Designed & handmade by julie.
The photo shoot takes the observer on a journey of a young damsel whose vulnerable position has brought her to a low point in her life. Alone, hurt and needing saving, she realises she doesn't need a knight to come and save her. With enough money, she can save herself and escape rock bottom.
