Dakota Schiffer Instagram – 006: The Mane Event, Love your hair hope you win! “curtain call” wig- @wigchapel film- @llyr.evans dress- @ros.ette embellishment- @4bihaywood and myself! This look is so special to me. My twin and I had our femininity policed massively growing up and had all our “girl” toys taken from us along with being told to change the way we talked walked and dressed by our family. After this our Grandma, who used to sneak dolls for us from the charity shop she worked at, let us play with the curtain tassels in her house and pretend that they were our hair. She never questioned our femininity and was one of the first family members who let us know it was ok to be feminine so to turn it around into a look was very emotional for me! This look is a love letter to anyone who had their femininity policed growing up. Even when we were being actively taught to be ashamed of the way we were naturally, it’s small moments like this from childhood that really stick with you. I know it’s silly but wearing curtain tassels on my head again was a very full circle moment! Reclaiming that femininity was so important for me to represent and I’d like to thank our Grandma for letting us be ourselves growing up! (and for also not getting angry at us when we took scissors to her curtain tassels!) 💖💖💖
