Necklaces for men

Monika Zampa

John has just returned home from his busy day in the office. Exhausted, he throws his tie on the living room floor. His dilligent wife rushes to the wardrobe to hang the tie in its usual place and discovers the "other" one. She gasps: "Oh, no John?!"

The shapes of the neckpieces come from female sexual forms. I have used textiles which are typically associated with men attire, such as business ties, Nepalese traditional textile, Arabic head scarves and combined them with raw cotton and iron.During my street research I aimed to find out how (un) comfortable men would feel by wearing feminine sexual forms around their necks. Please try the neckpiece on. How does it feel?
