I was talkin to a friend the other day about wanting to make a mer av but not really knowing what I wanted to make. I had just shown her a recent video short from fashion designer Iris Van Herpen, wherein her models are submerged and performing in her designs underwater. Here's the video:
It's a really cool video, and the designs are fabulous. My pal agreed, and suggested I do a look inspired by something in it. I'm not really the biggest fan of the color orange, but found myself most drawn to the black and orange look. So I figured I would take the challenge of using the color orange, as well as doing orange and black and NOT making it look Halloween-y lol. This is where I landed, and I'm pretty happy with it. I like this look a lot.
