“Polet” by Andrew Ly and Kevin Calero

Posted 2 years, 9 months ago on August 25, 2009 by

In an inter­view with Dazed Dig­i­tal, Andrew Ly of Quill and Clown­white explained the inspi­ra­tion behind “Polet”, the film ver­sion of his lat­est collection:

To me fash­ion is an instal­la­tion of the body and a mood. Whether it be mas­cu­line, fem­i­nine, androg­y­nous, pow­er­ful or what ever it may be. I really wanted my char­ac­ter to be a lit­tle bit of it all (fem, masc, both) as you can see he is very pow­er­ful look­ing and very strong but at the same putting on a chif­fon kimono style dress on him did not make him look fem­i­nine but touches of it and still main­tain­ing his iden­tity. Play­ing with gen­der and the illu­sion of what man/​woman should be in a stereo­typ­i­cal way is not inter­est­ing to me. Mix­ing it all was a great chal­lenge and attractive.
