Icy Industrial Fashion

The Deficiency Collection Makes Natural Forms from Manmade Materials

A great deal of imagination went into Deficiency by Renee Nicole Sander. This is a collection of wearable pieces that have been fashioned with some rather unusual materials to reference an unexpected theme. While many women enjoy flaunting fitted garments that frame their figures flatteringly, these models are pictured with costumes that seem to increase their volumes greatly.

It was glaciers and icebergs that influenced these eccentric ensembles, assembled with white and watery hues to reinforce the idea. Among the fabrics, you will find some unconventional choices that range from large PVC sheets and industrial mesh, to blackout curtain lining and quilt wadding. Deficiency by Renee Nicole Sander was about exploring unchartered territory, in terms of both artistic influence and materials.
