Defending an injured paw or pesky stitches by no means regarded so good. Winnie Au (previously) upends the humiliating nature of Elizabethan collars as she pictures hounds sporting trendy takes on the medical units for her sequence Cone Of Disgrace.
Au started the challenge again in 2017 in collaboration with designer Marie-Yan Morvan as a method to showcase canine’ distinctive personalities and switch in any other case torturous ruffs into spectacular equipment. Utilizing supplies like paper and tulle, and extra unconventional finds like dissolvable insulation foam and sweet buttons, the pair usual a big selection of designs far more glamorous and charming than their veterinarian-issued counterparts. “Every canine, cone, and backdrop has been conceived as a mash-up of summary shapes, tones, and textures. Now not turning canine into laughing shares, these collars develop into artworks,” Au says.
A brand new guide revealed by Union Square & Co. collects pictures of 60 canine donning the trendy ruffs, 48 of which haven’t been shared earlier than. Whereas the core idea is similar as when the sequence started, the pair integrated newer applied sciences into latest photos, together with the inflatable rings which have grown in reputation. In addition they labored with new breeds and supplies in what Au describes as “my love letter to all the great canine on the market.”
Cone Of Disgrace will probably be launched on July 9 and is out there for pre-order within the Colossal Shop. Discover extra from Au on Instagram.
