Elegant Monk & La femme fatale
The six-path reincarnation theory in Buddhism
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The real attraction in a woman is her dazzling charm that exists no matter what she does and what emotion she has. Fickle and unpredictable, she will never be as true as she looks. Knowing that she is dangerous, a guy is willing to be at her mercy. 'Buddhism' gives people a solemn feeling, whereas 'monks' give people the impression of seeing through the world and having little desires. Combined with the beauty of women, I believe it will produce an extraordinary and fresh impression. The combination of two extremes can create a strong sense of contrast, which will give people a unique and interesting feeling.
PROJECT CONCEPT
Xiaowei is a fox demon, her beauty is irresistible. She’s like a dark hole. Once you look at her, your mind will fall into an abyss. When you approach her, you can see the red spider lily and hear the call of hell. Sweet but highly poisonous, she is like a belladonna. The scope of Buddhism is extensive. For this project, I have designed a set of women's fashion with the image of monks as a reference. Based on the Buddhist elements, theories, and characteristics of the monks, my design created a novel image. I want to express that even ordinary things have their own 'enchantment', just like the simplicity in Buddhism.
