The both top and dress head create by silver stainless steel with a geometric disc motifs pattern with a chainmail look design, the silver rounded plate, make me think of the panels on a space station it had a similar reflective looking element, also the outfit shine in different lighting sometime it will give a completely different colour this effect remind me of the mystery feeling of space. she also added a few chains straps that provide extra movements and flow when the wearer walks.


Fannie Schiavoni is famous for using chainmail body adornments, her metal scale dresses are often made by hand using ancient Japanese metal constructing techniques. Her collection often includes a combination of draping, different chains and overlapping reptile-like scales. State by Blaine (2011)

This outfit was created and connected by a bunch of big circle rings. The circle pattern reminded me of markings that live by UFO and the connector of those rings remind me of different planets surrounding each other.

In ss15 collection The first outfit had a plain black colour dress design and covered by triangle, shape pattern style armless jacket made by transparent material, the flimsy and barebones design remind me of a space station structural design, overall the black colour scheme dress had a space colour background and the triangle, shape and structure looks like it has connect it with a bunch of space station.

The second outfit had a sheer looking cropped jacket with transparent sleeves made with PVC, the sheer design made me think of the planet Saturn's ring, it had a similar look of a sheer fabric, and transparent sleeves. It reflects light, it looks minimal and futuristic.


Overall, Fannie Schiavoni has a very distinctive style, she likes working with different sizes of chains that hang over the body and she also likes to include draping, scale and mesh fabrics that are light-weighted and can flow freely.
