“Empire of Excess”

Empire of Excess A Bold Exploration of Glamour, Wealth, and the Illusion of Modern Identity.

“Empire of Excess” by Marko Stout is a bold, glamorous, and unapologetically provocative collection that dives headfirst into the glittering chaos of modern luxury and identity. With bright neon hues that pulse with emotion, each piece captures the seductive tension between indulgence and perception—how we present ourselves in a world obsessed with wealth, beauty, and curated reality. This series is a dazzling mirror held up to contemporary society, where passion, power, and artifice collide in a symphony of chrome, gloss, and electric desire.
