Warriors of Downpour City

Imagine living in a world with endless rainfall. As time evolves, so will our shape and posture. The Warriors of Downpour City range provides our bodies with the necessary armour. Anne van Galen’s vision is a celebration of rain, in which fashion becomes pared down, transparent and layered with thin diluted colours. Wearable body pieces resembling fog settling around the shoulders, a face-concealing headdress, a tube to glove a clenched hand. The project contains a series of fashion photos to serve as inspiration for fashion designers and stylists.
