STRINGS ATTACHED
C41 X POLIMODA 2024 GOOD USE, GOOD CHOICE Editorial
Beneath the green, the threads were disguised, Stories constructed, twisting reality. Dreams of renewal, softly they fray, Illusions woven to lead us astray.
The stories we wear, a whispered song, Through smoky mirrors, the threads reveal. Draping us in the echo of fleeting dreams.
In this extravagant theater, fashion stages its striking masquerade, sustainability dances as the marionette. Blinded by the spotlight green stories are spun of purity, strings tugging by unseen hands. The audience entranced, falls for the longing of a cleaner conscious, blind to the smoke backstage. Fabrics draped like papiermâché performers, their true cost sewn in hidden stitches of manipulation. The puppeteer grins as the curtain descends on transparency
The colossal hands loom like shadows, symbols of corporate giants weaving fantasies of sustainability. They clutch at consumers’ faith, their trace is delicate yet deceitful, disguising greed beneath a veil of green promises, while true change slips through unseen fingers.
