Karma_Chameleon

"Chameleons are a distinctive and highly specialized clade of lizards. They are distinguished by their parrot-like zygodactylous feet, their separately mobile and stereoscopic eyes, their very long, highly modified, and rapidly extrudable tongues, their swaying gait, the possession by many of a prehensile tail, crests or horns on their distinctively shaped heads, and the ability of some to change color. Uniquely adapted for climbing and visual hunting, the approximately 160 species of chameleon range from Africa, Madagascar,Spain and Portugal, across south Asia, to Sri Lanka, have been introduced to Hawaii, California and Florida, and are found in warm habitats that vary from rain forest to desert conditions.


Some chameleon species are able to change their skin colors. The primary purpose of color change has been found to be due to social signalling, as opposed to camouflage, although both social signalling color change, and color change for purposes of camouflage do occur in most chameleons, to some extent. Color change is also used as an expression of the physiological condition of the lizard, and as a social indicator to other chameleons. Chameleons tend to show darker colors when angered, or attempting to scare or intimidate others, and males show lighter, multi-colored patterns when courting females."


My headpieces proved more than enough for the "I_Love_Macaroons" concept! So we decided to separate the shooting into two different editorials. We still have the same components, but a total different approach, where our "chameleon" changes skin in order to attract his "naked beauty desire".

Procedure: mutation

*The English word chameleon (also chamaeleon) derives from Latin chamaeleō, a borrowing of the Ancient Greek χαμαιλέων (khamailéōn), a compound of χαμαί (khamaí) "on the ground" and λέων (léōn) "lion"_the Greek word is a calque translating the Akkadian nēš qaqqari, "ground lion"_this particular headpiece was literally a last minute inspitation_the leggings are h&m and inside i put toilet paper tubes_gorgeous result, don't you agree? 

Changing_colours

*Different chameleon species are able to change different colors which can include pink, blue, red, orange, green, black, brown, light blue, yellow, turquoise and purple.
