At first glance, Femke Agema's chromatic fashion designs look like inanimate objects frozen in a statuesque pose. On closer inspection, it becomes clear that each work is actually a headpiece covering the face of a model who is dressed entirely in a primary color of blue.

Agema's chromatic fashion uses its surreal traits to create a fantastical, yet playful atmosphere. The vibrant colors, combined with the models' hidden faces, results in an eye-catching collection.

With this collection, Agema has demonstrated that art can be integrated into fashion as more than an inspiration. Instead of basing her designs off of a work of art, Agema creates works of art using her designs. It's a unique way of working that has created some of the most memorable pieces in both the fashion and art industries.
