Evan Biddell has decided it’s time we conquer our fears, but first we need armour. Biddell took the defensive shells of prehistoric animals as inspiration for the collection, which he calls Prehistory.

Stiff panels of fabric protruded from the backs of numerous of Biddell’s dresses, while others drooped outwards off the shoulders, creating big exoskeleton-like silhouettes Biddell says were build to emulate equipment worn in battle.

He hopes the clothes create women feel fearless, like warriors. I’m sick of being frightened of everything.

With shapes like this, when you have impressive that is giving you a hunchback or sticking your thighs out, you can’t be afraid of anything, you have to just work it. If you’re letting the clothes eat you energetic, it’s not going to work.
