ideas for fashion show

California based artist Tom Banwell creates amazing masks out of leather.Stylish masks handmade of vegetable tanned leather are shaped while wet to fit a face and then painted with an appropriate color.
Since we discussed masks while coming up with a concept for our show I thought finding a different style of mask would be unique. What i really like about these two images is that not only are the shapes unique but you can still see the gorgeous make-up. I thought this would be interesting because we could still play with the eyes to get the look we want even behind a mask. I also think the color selection goes well with what we've discussed because we have the circus theme and then the dark theme.
