Through my own personal affinity for textiles, hand-making and personal expression, I dreamt up a versatile look that could be uniquely styled and representative for all the different personalities.
-
The process of creating this look was organic. Drafting the pattern, testing materials and attachments were technical and interesting. Developing this look brought about new discoveries in to the creative vision.
-
The possibilities are endless with this garment. By sewing this oneself or simply sending in a heritage textile to be made for the consumer, the story of people’s choices and lives gets to live on through this designed garment.
-
This concept was presented at LCAD to actions sports & apparel industry professionals that brought insights to small, closed loop production and product development within the lens of circularity.
This work as also presented at a Group-Y event alongside action sports industry professionals, such as Jesse White and Ryan Hitzel. This event was a highlight on creative brands and the obligations we have to circularity, innovation and storytelling with product design.
