Fake It 'Till You Make It

This project explores counterfeit fashion through a narrative series centred on a character driven by branding over authenticity. It examines logomania, overconsumption, and the desire for luxury, using busy, layered illustrations to mirror the visual overload of the counterfeit fashion world. The work combines playful imagery with critical insight to reflect its wider cultural and social impact.
