No Armor, Still Armed

Visual Direction
Written By Bri Tahj

No Armor, Still Armed documents a persona-coded look developed for the live delivery of “Rank Daisies”. The intention was not protection or spectacle, but clarity. Each element- the BLADE chain, dark cat eye lenses, leather jacket, and oversized denim- operated as restraint rather than decoration, allowing presence to carry the work.

  • BLADE chain functions as signature rather than accessory.

  • Shades remove accessibility

  • Leather jacket adds weight without armor

  • Baggy denim grounds the body and resists precision

Reduced distraction, sharpened delivery. 

The persona preceded the performance.
