This is my favorite Araki ref, Tony Viramontes’s illustration for Nina Ricci. Shadow Dio’s core visual is based on a drawing of a woman in an evening gown.  

The illustration is in part fetish image – the exposed back and hourglass shape - but in Araki’s interpretation, the object of your attention looks back at you.  And does it in a way where you can’t see his face.  You can’t quite see him but he sees you which is fabulous because it inverts the power structure fetishism normally takes.  And in SDC, Shadow Dio’s power to see without being seen (he’s hidden throughout most of the story) is a form of control.
