One of the stronger accents in the #Y2020K “Rust” collection is this hand polished blackened chain #recycledmetal #metal #metalforever @thexzouix that once toubled the dog we had many years ago. I completely restored it back into a perfect shape. I never understood why would anyone go ahead and chain a dog in a garden. I’d always unchain him. In this collection I am gazing into minds of people through their actions (only by observation) and rethinking my personal standpoint towards #cruelty and its forms. I have an utterly strange feeling this one can’t be described by words. You’ll have to experience it. It’s worth mentioning that metal is a very hard and rewarding material to #work with. And it will look amazing with the black silk, cotton, dusty gray chiffon, rust dyed natural cotton knit and of course black recycled leather which I consider to be even cruel than a chained dog. I mean, someone buys and throws away leather as if it was a stone or something. Would you really skin an animal just to have a miniskirt or a sexy pair of pants? I am salvaging this material because once it is bought and abandoned, it deserves another purpose by recycling when the material is in a perfect condition. Which in fashion’s eye is “dead but beautiful” #deadbutbeautiful What a #classy status, right? #stopthecruelty #crueltyfreefashion Cruelty free fashion collection made with cruel materials. This collection took a lot of work and many many nights of detailing and polishing the details and materials. I am so looking forward to photo shooting this collection ⛓ (Still looking for a model) xzouix.com/coming-soon ⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓ #experienceit #chainharness #bodychains #jewelry #slowfashion #formfollowsfunction #craftsmanshipmatters #zerowaste #fashiondesign #noir #xzouix https://www.instagram.com/p/CFqcBibhOM6/?igshid=ycau5blvdw8y
