Independent Project Ideas

I've always been interested in the Japanese fashion Lolita because of its quirky, striking, bold style that draws massive attention. I've done some work exploring this fashion before as I have a friend who used to dress in that way and through her I've met a lot more people who are interested in this fashion. I've had the idea for a long time to do a shoot with a Lolita dresser and a small child, the idea is for the child to take control of the life of the Lolita dresser whilst the Lolita dresser is posing as the child's doll. The fashion is very doll like in the sense that it's big, puffy, frilly, bright and full of big bows, magical shapes and varied textures. I can picture the sort of things I want in my mind but have never got round to producing them. The series of images will portray the daily life of the little girl and her relationship with the doll, the doll will be bigger than the little girl so the images will seem bizarre that the little girl is the one in control. This project is something that I will take up after leaving uni so my vision will come alive!
