Thomas Fuller declared “Craft must have clothes, but truth loves to go naked” – and indeed sometimes Political Fashion doesn’t need any clothes at all to make its point. Ruth Hogben's film illustrates this perfectly, as her star Agyness dons nothing more than free-floating balloons and her own birthday suit to underline ideals of peace and freedom.

Beautifully simple. Love the use of Agyness singing. Some really devine shots in this film. Delicate and whimsical. I am sure it will be very popular on Youtube.

I agree she is beautifull. We are still in a world which makes a big deal about nudity.
And the shot works well with white blunes and background, maby better as a black and white pghotograph.
As the song goes everything is beautufull in its own way.
On another line. just over a year ago someone mentioned to me that it would be a good idea to go to Berlin to take pictures of the goths on the street over there, with there dogs. Its interesting to see that one of the fashion lifestyle magazines resently coverd the story.
