40 Caged Fashion Finds

From Urban Warrior Apparel to Confined Mask Jewelry

— September 5, 2014 — Fashion
These caged fashion finds embrace simple geometries and linear grid motifs. Whether creating wearable art pieces or looking to architecture for their inspiration, more and more fashion designers are taking risks when it comes to their creations.

The examples from this list of caged fashion finds illustrate a perfect balance between positive and negative space and are often restrictive in their aesthetic. While some of the finds embody a dark and domineering aesthetic, others are evocative of clean minimalism and are a nod to the retro futurism imagery of the 60s and 70s.

Whether showcased on the runway, in a conceptual catalog or as backdrop props in a high fashion editorial, these couture finds are the epitome of edgy.
