studio.6.sustainability
This semesters work... doesn't really seem that exciting or impressive but it was made from two recycled dresses donated to us by 'Swensk'- a swedish fashion retailer dedicated to 'slow fashion'.
Basically their idea is to stock clothing that is not trend driven therfor it wont go 'out of fashion' and you will not dispose of your clothing seasonally..... sustainability through longevity. we also had to aim for ZERO WASTE of the two donated dresses... anddddd we had a client so we had to design and create something that would fit into their lifestyle- aesthetically and practically. .....
does that all even make sense?? it was a crazy studio, kinda sick of explaining it to be honest--- but felt as though it was necessary to know why it ended out like it did. There was far too much packed into it, everyone felt like they designed and created things that they did not really like.... mine was extremely simple because it needed to be i think... Chloe my client runs a graphic design company so i used the laser cutter to create a pattern on the sleeves...
there are also zips on the lapel which really only adds a desiggn element and also the no watse as there were zips from the backs of the original dresses... anyway your bored and im bored but there it is.
