about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

If you think it's plain ugly think again... next fall/winter you'll run around in a long one.

Preferaly a straight one, masculine, double  buttoned one making it glamorous late 80 ies Diva style (as the ladys in red) with a hint of New Wave. Remember an unknown Madonnas Street Style. And that coat goes for you brave dudes too, either oilskin coat for the street oriented ones in jeansshirt and jeans or the New Wave version, similar to the above, for the fashinistos.

I was just checkin the comments under that StreetPeeper photo; HAHAHAHAHA!

"channelling Gwen Stefani, No Doubt era" OMG this person probably thought they gave me some sort of compliment, but that's a straight up diss in my book. The Decida Style has been around so much longer than Ms Stefani's No Doubt Era style, which was not synonymous with good over here before she got help from talented people in i e Luxurious. But for some I guess all white ppl look the same...

"where are they now"?-What Boy George would like like today". HAHA that was probby meant as a diss but hell yeah I take that as a compliment cause I loooove Boy George early 80's style!

My Style References: 
Make up: Sade/Jody Watley eyebrows, lipstick and hoops
Hair old 80ies Gaultier
Coat 80 Diva / Masculine New Wave / Buffalo
Street Wear in 90's Levi's jeans jacket and Alife kicks, Ray Ban shades 
Native indian (you ve seen that trend growing this year) scarf n necklace
