Film Fashion - Icons & Audience


After researching into people like Marlene Dietrich who changed the way women dress and consider their appearance I decided to look into a breadth of fashion 'icons', for example wearing trousers instead of skirts and being able to choose either. I also wanted to explore this in relation to an audience, so whilst drawing out the different faces of actresses and characters I set them out in the way an audience may sit when viewing a film/television show. Exploring collections of people and the variations within each category is very interesting for me and highlights the areas of diversity in the industry at the moment. When looking at female characters it became evident that there is a certain type casting - either a damsel in distress, psychopath or the romantic interest, especially in the less recent roles. I want to explore these different roles further.
