Being inundated with images of what the ‘perfect’ female form is can be incredibly discouraging to, well, females. Allie Pohl has decided to make a statement with her Ideal Woman Necklace. Believing that these cookie-cutter patterns of women are encouraging image-obsessed individuals, she wanted to create something that represented this negative phenomenon.
The Ideal Woman Necklace is different yet exactly the same. It demonstrates how every woman wants to embrace a look that may not only be impossible, but will destroy unique qualities that make individual women so beautiful.
