The Esthetics of Horns

With decorative horns so often making their appearance as a merely comical (devilish) attribute one would sometimes forget the possibilities in form and shape such scalp extensions can grow to in nature and how, when combined with a well thought-out notion of direction, any of such forms could be able to bestow a mighty addition to some already conceptually strong outfits.

Even though humanoid horns are a sight, widespread throughout fantasy and gothic imagery, those succeeding with incorporating them into their own creations are often confronted with questions considering ‘the meaning’ behind wearing such addenda.

May the drive be a theriomorphic search for a suppressed animal nature or the desire to impersonate a sort of transcended being, the purely esthetical aspect of homegrown antlers is sufficiently challenging to me for having made the decision to incorporate distinctive forms of horns in each of my primary outfits for 2011.
