THE RISE AND FALL OF ROCKY-JO

This is a story about a boy, a Rock-Star-boy, who is not just a little glimmer, but a rising star, living his life, fulfilling his dream…the life of Sex, Drugs and Rock’n’Roll, the lifestyle of the rich and famous. But at the time that he was just dreaming about a life like this, he didn’t think about the consequences it may bring. Sure, he can afford whatever he wants, Vogue became his holy book. He has got rooms packed with all the brand new clothes fresh from designers’ runways, drinking Louis Roederer Cristal everyday and wasting all his money to whatever comes to his crazy mind. But he didn’t think of the consequences before he chose that life. Next to all those nice, but shallow things that make him happy actually for just one moment, he has to cope with loneliness, fake friends, self-doubts, self-destruction and pressure to succeed. Is that all worth it, for a little fame?? Xx Armin G.

LA MADAME DE LA COUTURE

This time I’ve turned my gorgeous and beautiful sister in LA MADAMME DA LA COUTURE, inspired by the crazy and detailed make-up from DIOR COUTURE SHOWS at Paris Fashion-Week, combined with the sense of the old baroque ladies with their colossal with wigs which I’ve turned into a modern hat.
I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to my fabulous sister, for being so patient for hours till I’ve done all my art-work and make-up on her, and for being always so open-minded to be the model for my ideas!!! Xx Armin G.

THE PASSION - FASHION NEWS HEADLINES

I’ve discovered a news paper, a really interesting one THE GERMAN VOGUE NEWS PAPER. But what I’ve missed, compared to an ordinary newspaper was anything critical. So I’ve decided to add some more topics…well, rather headlines than topics, something striking, just to complete the all in all really good news from the Vogue Magazine. Well, you can understand these topics that I’ve added either in a positive or negative way towards the powerful and popular fashion industry. It’s up to you! These pictures shouldn’t offend anyone, no - they should make people think about this whole business and some topics that are often not discussed.
Special Thanks to my fabulous friends, Ingrid Laggner and Manfred Schrittesser, you did an awesome job and I loved working with you!!!! Xx Armin G.
