Antonio Riello’s Ladies Weapons
“In 1998 I decided to focus my artistic research mainly about a “fashion-fiction” visual story regarding an old passion of mine: weapons – objects full of symbolic senses. I want to mix, in an artistic way, traditional ‘female stuff’ like fashion with very traditional ‘male stuff’ like guns. It consists in a restyling of real military weapons into fashion items for ladies”.
OK… I realize this MUST be a spoof, or art, or this guy just doesn’t realize that women can handle guns with the best of them. But the collection is amazing and I have to say, the grenade featured above is aptly named Matilda.
