Although others might not be as willing to be so vocal, Bones believes that there is value in speaking your truth.Ī post shared by Project Runway On Bravo said, “I believe having an opinion is necessary, and it is obligatory to voice it when needed. While Bones might have evolved his thinking, there were several occasions on Project Runway where he was unafraid to speak his mind. Once I learned that luxury is a feeling and of the mind, a lot changed for me in how I show up in society.” Growing up I was constantly feeling the pressure to have the best of the best in fear of getting teased. “Changing the paradigm of luxury, and social norms means, to unlearn the need to possess materialistic things to bring value to our lives. Previously he stated that he looks to change, “the paradigm of luxury and social norms.”Īlthough that statement seems cerebral, Bones explained that phrase. Those sentiments seem to be woven into some of Bones’ approaches to design. Representing growth, freedom, stability, trust, etc, blue is a visual for taking a deep breath and centering.” Bones shared, “The color blue and the symbolism of the color impact me in more ways than artistically. Specifically, he said that blue was his favorite color, but it was more than just a preference. In that time the brain is trying to process so many “right decisions.” “Ī post shared by BONES, Made Of Frequency back at this challenge, Bones shared some insight on his color choice on Instagram.
For example, there were restrictions as to where and how we could shoot, and secondly we only had 10 minutes to select the photo. There were a few things that occurred more so making it difficult to achieve the selection of the best photo. In some ways, one of his best designs of the season was blurred by an image that didn’t convey its nuance.īones commented, “I do believe my look was the most forward thinking, but I admit that my photograph did not fully meet the challenge. While many of Bones’ looks impressed, the presentation of those looks sometimes left the judges with questions.Īs seen in his final challenge, the photo did not convey the intricacies of the design. Thinking about style, is one of the areas that sometimes confused with the judges. Style is an art, so when you combine style and a fab piece, why miss a chance to cherish creation. However, I do think that everything has an opportunity to be or feel like something. The late Andre (Andre Leon Talley) would say that they are absolutely not one in the same. When asked about this concept, Bones spoke candidly, “I don’t think that it is important or necessary to see fashion as art. In some ways, it opened the door to question the art in fashion. That ability to use hair as an accessory seemly pushed the conversation about style. Lastly, I knew haircuts may be few and far between, so pulling a Patti helped with that as well! “ The choice to wear them through the season hopefully helped to normalize men wearing wigs.
In my day-to-day life, I sometimes wear hair just as it’s another accessory. When asked about those Patties, Bones said, “Much was said about the Patties this season, as they really were helpful in more ways than for the audience’s visual pleasure. There were many times when Bones complimented that design and each runway had a signature Bones look thanks to his wigs, aka Patties. While his designs that appeared on the runway had both cheers and sometimes jeers, many people saw that he found a way to take his look beyond what the model was wearing.
