Animation Carly feels fucking fabulous

September 24, 2020 Carly Findlay Leave a Comment

Video: An animation representing me – a woman with a red face and short dark curly hair, standing in a garden. There are seven different frames – each has the same woman and garden, but with different outfits on, and different light.

Oh my goodness! This artwork of me by Monique Gabrielle Illustration has made my week!

It’s an animation, inspired by my outfits. Monique told me “I had the idea when ther was all the talk about Clueless 25 year anniversary, and how Cher has that cool computer outfit thing & I was thinking how much you need something like that!!! Haha then it just turned into an animation 💖” Clueless is one of my favourite movies and Cher Horowitz is my style icon. This is perfect!

Thank you Monique, you captured me and my outfits so well! Animation Carly feels fucking fabulous. (I do a thing on Twitter where I caption an outfit photo with “I wore this today and felt fucking fabulous” – because wearing that outfit made me feel fabulous, and how strangers think I look (and should feel) is irrelevant. It’s not expected that me, a woman with a skin condition and facial difference can feel fabulous, looking like this, and so I boldly defy this low expectation.)

All of the illustrations, and a collage of the photos of the actual outfits, are here.

Image: a collage of seven photos. In each photo is a woman with a red face and short dark curly hair, wearing an array of bright outfits.
