Black-out distress
The corset, helmet, and leg guard are a collection of pieces utilized in this series to establish the need for protection of the body. However, its fragility is depicted through the use of glass. There is an element of vulnerability that everyone else is able to see through these shields of armor, but if the glass is broken, there is a ricochet-effect. The broken glass won’t just harm the person wearing it, but it will also inflict pain upon whoever causes the damage.
