re: fashion magazines cater to the male gaze.

Teasing the theme of a peep show with strategically-censoring tears of magazine and cheeky, euphemistic headlines pulled out of their original context, the pages of the collage book consider the relationship between the nude feminine body and fashion as performance for oneself. Challenged by the [internalized] male gaze, the piece comedically entertains the conflict between wanting fashion and dress up for yourself but still being concerned with the consumption or performance of the nude feminine body.
