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.
pennies armour designed & handmade by julie.
the story of a 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 the knight to come and save her. With enough money, she can save herself and leave rock bottom.
