"Delicious" rings from Sofia Molnar

Since the time of the skinny Twiggy, a constant diet and self-restraint have become a lifestyle for many already beautiful girls. Canadian-born Japanese designer Sofia Molnar protests against this approach with her collection "Down with the Diet". Her handmade rings look edible even though they are made of plastic and glue. The purpose of the collection is to distract the fair sex from thinking about diet.

8. Sofia Molnar: “Plastic food is really popular here in Japan. This idea caught my imagination so much that when I created the first mini version of the still life in the form of a ring, it was a crazy moment for me. This one hundred percent expressed my vision of the food situation in Japan and fascinated me so much that now I am engaged in the creation of "delicious rings" professionally.
