In these works from my first collection I aim to express how modern girls easily metamorphose themselves using make-up and fashion as their tools.

In your journey through life you meet lots of different people with different ideas of what defines beauty. Each attracted to a different aspect of your personality. Make-up and fashion allows a girl to change and adjust whenever the need arises.

This is what the photos express. A girl can show herself as strong, as cute, as elegant. Her possibilities are endless.

Modeling was done by Yumi Murakami. She also did the styling. We found it difficult to take photos in the dark underground parking lot, but it was much fun.

By Nari Yamashina

Every girl is good at lying

To lie, she changes her appearance

Skirt fluttering in the wind

Crimson lipstick

Fishnet stockings on high heels

These are a girls’ armor

Her body pretends, but she looks you straight into the eyes

Mistress of Deceit

これは私が始めて作品撮りした時のものです。

人生の中では、様々な価値観を持った人間と出会うだろう。
美しいと感じるものも、また人それぞれであり
女の子達は自分のファッションに身を包み、化粧をして
姿を変えては相手を魅了する。
力強く、可愛く、時に優美に。

この作品では、女の子達のそのような無限の可能性を映し出したかったのです。
暗い地下駐車場という、撮影が難しい場でしたがとても楽しい作品撮りでした。

女の子はみんな嘘が得意

姿を変えては嘘をつく

風になびくスカート

真っ赤な口紅

網タイツにハイヒール

それは彼女達の鎧

偽りの姿と真っ直ぐな眼差し

Mistress of Deceit

モデル、スタイリング:Yumi Murakami

Thanks, Gique. You’re glad you were born a girl, because you can be a mistress of deceit, or because a girl can show herself as strong, as cute, as elegant. Her possibilities are endless?
