Concealment
"CONCEALMENT is a short conceptual film that provides a commentary on morality of the world of female advertising. It explores the vulnerability of a model as she moves through the constructed world she performs in, making the audience re-examine their perception of perfection."
The costume for Concealment was based around the notion of a powerful, sensual but ultimately vulnerable woman. A pale pink, almost flesh tone dress united this dichotomy. Silk cut on the bias skimmed the figure of the actress whilst also responding well to water used in later scenes.

“I was eager to be involved with this project, as I am a big fan of Evelin’s fluid and intuitive handling of light through the lens, and how this relates to fabric, to flesh, and so forth. Further to this, costume is the study of character, of identity. The questioning of gender roles cuts straight to the heart of this matter. With this film I hope that the viewer might, for a moment, think about gender as a character, a construction, a fabrication. I feel it’s important that this project is realized to allow these issues to come to life and be explored in a world here objectification and “the pleasure in looking” at women is accepted as standard and rarely questioned.”
