Icons are everywhere!

An icon is someone who makes an effort. Art makes an effort. Therefore art is an icon. Marilyn Monroe was and is an icon and a work of art as well. Hence Marilyn Monroe and art have a nature in common. Icon - Art - Marilyn is iconic.

The Hunger Games Catching Fire - A First Look from the perspective of fashion #President Snow #Peacekeepers

The vicious president and the manifestation of his power: the peacekeepers.

So yesterday I have taken a look at what we have seen from Katniss fashion so far. This time we are gong to have a look at the fashion of President snow and the new costume design of the peacekeepers. So lets just dive in and talk all "fashiony" in this special episode of "Passion for Fashion":

So we all know that President snow is the pure manifestation of absolute power in the world of Panem. He is all powfull and he is old. And he is a very two faced person and very cruel. 

So on the promotional poster of the new movie we see snow in this very elegant and expensive chair. This represents, that maybe the chair is not very much like the one of Katniss, but it shows pure power. Snows hair is all in order. He wears this amazing coat which is beautifully designed, and is a pure representation of his power and his wealth. On the coat there is a black and white fur, which makes him look like very royal. And that is the hint to his role as a dictator, even though he is called "president".

Typical for Snow is the white rose, and the very relaxed position he is sitting in. This position, in composition with the tuxedo he wears under the coat, shows that he is ruling Panem as a dictator. Cruel and harsh.

So just quickly I want to have a look at the new peacekeeper wardrobe. Its very futuristic and looks like an insect. It is already like a combat armour.  And I love it!
