Fashion in the City of Dolls

"Fashion in the City of Dolls" explores our plan for fashion within the DangerGirlx universe. Set in near futuristic and edgy Danger City, also known as the City of Dolls, this project aims to create a seamless blend between the fictional wardrobe of our characters and real-world fashion trends. Through innovative storytelling, character-driven designs, and the use of modern AI tools, we conceptualize unique styles that reflect the personalities of our characters. The fashion in Danger City is not just about aesthetics; it’s a storytelling tool that enhances the immersive experience of our photo novellas.
