I'm a fashion designer working on a collection inspired by the character of Chaos from the game Hades.

I've posted previously on this, and took on a lot of great feedback. The earlier version felt too soft/realistic and disconnected from the art-style. Now, I feel the new direction is more recogniseable in terms of elements/colour/art-style but I would love your honest opinions before we go into the final detailing.

Keeping in mind, the goal is not to replicate the art-style 1:1, because that lean more towards reproduction than interpretation. The idea is more: what would Chaos look like translated onto a real body through fashion?

So, let's hear your thoughts again:

If you saw someone wearing this in public, would your brain connect it to Chaos? (also interested to know which elements are doing the heavy-lifting recognition-wise, or what you feel it misses - if anything)

I'm also doing more regular updates and sourcing feedback in a small discord group of you would like to be a part of the process: https://discord.gg/S5jzCBjQHH

I’m looking for an illustrator who can work in the style of Ayami Kojima (Castlevania).

Not after direct copies or fan art, I’m looking for someone who can capture that painterly, gothic, character-focused aesthetic in an original way.

Paid project (budget still in preparation), with potential for ongoing work if it’s a good fit. If relevant, please share: – portfolio / IG / ArtStation

– any work in a similar direction

– your rates (or range)

Also open to recommendations.

Thanks!
