The theme for our garments is encompassed with the elements of Cannibalism. Cannibalism is considered
one of the mankind’s ultimate taboos. In general terms, Cannibalism is often referred to as the ceremonial eating of human flesh of the other human body for magical or religious purposes.

Taking up cannibalism as the theme, we wanted our garment to be connected with a story. Of the snakes inside one, eating one-self, physically as well as mentally.
Materials used - For the veins - Thin 2 mm sleeves. For accessories- Acrylic sheet was first cut into required form and pattern and was then thermoformed. For the texture, cement coated with golden spray was used.

with the elements of Cannibalism.
The garment consists of cold red blooded veins wrapped all over the body of the Cannibal on whom she has fed upon. The accessories are inspired from snakes as they have self-cannibalism behavior which is the practice of eating oneself and there is a telescopic opening of snake bones grabbing the body of the woman representing Cannibalism.
