There is method to what she's doing. And even if you don't think there is...maybe you should try to look at what she does in a different way.
What does wearing a meat dress say about how we treat animals?
Why just wear the fur? Why do we think the fur is the only beautiful part of the animal? Why not wear the whole thing? What does wearing the meat raw make you think about?
