The Rise Of The Body!
You may have noticed that the female body has been popping up more in fashion and homeware. The body can be anything from the silhouette, outline or a solid interpretation of a woman’s body.
Artwork derived from aspects of the female body has been around for centuries, an example most people are familiar with is the Greek statues highlighting women in all their glory.
This form of art was embraced as a positive representation of femininity, and a celebration of the female form. Through times, and the development of civilisations societies became more conservative. Thus, less art celebrating the body was made.
However, in the past 100 years women rights have increased and with rights comes liberation. So with the transition between traditional values to modernity has bought with it a wave of self-love. The body through sculptures has popped up plentifully in modern times; an iconic example of this is Jean Paul Gaultier's Classique perfume bottle. This year there was a spike in the increase of the use of feminine bodies in fashion and art after years of seeing a slow rise.
Wearing body-shaped jewellery is a great way to embrace your own body and feel a true connection to yourself. Celebrating your form and seeing your body as a work of art! Our Golden Body Necklace is a subtle way to embrace this beautiful concept.
