Fashion Politics



We began our new project 'Fashion and Politics.' I am excited about this project. It is important to be clued in to what is happening in society and  be able to have opinions. I think fashion is a medium that should be utilized for expression and political opinions count as an expression. 

Thinking about a final product was how I initially approached this project. I was just thinking 'where could I go with this?' 'how can I turn it into a shoot?' 

Then after having group discussions on various topics I began to think it would be better to just choose a subject I am passionate about and let it happen naturally. 

I am looking into a few issues at the moments and will select one of them eventually. The few I am looking at ate; Government surveillance, freedom (like freedom of speech...etc), and gun control.
