Consumerism: Brighton Shop Mannequins

So today I decided to conduct a shoot of mannequins in Brighton shops, as I feel this is a material representation of fashion and in whole of superficiality. The idea of fashion and fashion photography is deeply incorporated into my photography due to my own interest creatively in the area and due to my recent research into Vogue fashion photographers David Bailey and John Rankin. I then edited my own photographs to really focus on the mannequins as the main focal point in the composition. I achieved this by darkening the photos and saturating them to highlight the spot lights shining on the mannequins, I then increased definition and sharpness to create a clear and precise style.
