Explore the inspiration and process behind this piece.

Runway to the Death Star takes the Imperial Royal Guard — the Emperor's elite, crimson-robed protectors — and frames their signature helmets as fashion statements. The title says it plainly: these guards already look like they stepped off a runway. The smooth, elongated dome, the full-face mask, the complete absence of any individual marking — this is fashion as absolute uniformity, as total erasure of the self in service of imperial power.
