Zarina Nares On The Relationship Between Fashion And Beauty “I’m Zarina, a singer/songwriter. I grew up in Tribeca, NYC, but I now live in Los Angeles. I’m Indian/British, I have a dog named Birdie who has all the anxiety problems I do, and I’m secretly obsessed with musical theatre.” “I think people tend to view beauty and fashion as the same. When we think back to the 60s or 80s fashion, beauty is very much a part of the image in our minds. It’s difficult to visualise a mini shift dress without a thick cat eye. My clothes always influence my makeup or hair choices and vice versa. They both equally help frame our personal style; they’re each others muses.” “I love getting to wear glamorous clothes that I wouldn’t wear in daily life (or afford) when I model. Shooting editorial is like playing dress up—you feel like a kid again. When I’m writing songs or performing, I try to be the most honest version of myself, whereas modelling I get to be someone else—the character the team are trying to create. I don’t have full control or “final say” the way I do in music because it’s not about just me. I’m apart of someone else’s creative project which is really nice for a change. If I could, I would change the superficiality though. I feel it is slowly changing, due to social media by shifting the focus away from looks and celebrating and promoting people who are doing interesting things (creative, political, etc). Presenting models as humans not clothing hangers.” Instagram, @zarinanares | Photography, @danaboulos The post Zarina Nares On The Relationship Between Fashion And Beauty appeared first on CHRONICLES OF HER.
