Everyone's worn something they regretted, but these Achraf Amiri 'Fashion Victim' images redefine the term entirely. These drug-chic images depict several different narcotics adorned with high-end couture logos and motifs. Who knew that a Burberry syringe could look so classy?
The pictures themselves in this Achraf Amiri 'Fashion Victim' series are perfectly executed to seamlessly integrate iconic fashion prints, but I think the most stunning thing about these thought-provoking images is their powerful message. Is the user addicted to fashion like a drug, or is she a slave to consumerism and materialism?
Implications - Media such as these 'Fashion Victim' images engages consumers because it forces them to think. Corporations looking to appeal to more intelligent audiences may consider thought-provoking imagery in their advertising campaigns.
