Robotics.

This idea is all about how when we are educated in schools we are all robots. Treated like Robots. We go through school in our different age groups. There is only one right answer to everything we do. We either pass or fail tests. We have lunch, breaks and do each lesson in a certain order. We are told what we can and cant do. The idea is like we are robots and treated like robots in educations. You must be a certain academic person to fit into each profession. etc...
These are some photoshoots and different outfits playing on the idea of Robots. I think this would make an interesting 8 page editorial.


A photoshoot published in Dazed and Confused, June 2009. "The Ultimate Robot". Using couture clothes and the woman form to show them as machines.

Photographer: Mark Pillai
Model: Georgina Stojiljkovic











Another photoshoot was published in German Vogue Feburary 2010. Model Toni Garnn dresses as Svedka Robot.




Here is an image of Fergie from the Black Eye Peas, where she performed at Madison Square Garden, dressed in a Robotic spandax outfit.



Beyonce wore a Robotic costumes to the 2007 BET awards. A full gold outfit with gold pyramids on her belt.



In 2009 the fashion designer Irina Shaposhnikova, designed some outfits inspired by robots. These outfits show another angle on this idea.
