Untitled #547

Sherman’s series of large-scale photographs from 2012 depict outsized female figures in ominous landscapes wearing Coco Chanel designs, gazing out at the spectator. The images are loosely based on an insert Sherman did for Garage magazine for which she dressed herself in high fashion wear, ranging from haute couture pieces from the 1920s designed by Coco Chanel to vintage Karl Lagerfield from the 1980s.
