TEXTILE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT – FASHION DESIGN

THIS DESIGN CONSISTS OF A SHIRT AND TROUSERS THAT ARE MADE OUT OF SINGLE DENIM STRANDS. THOSE STRANDS WERE PART OF DEFECTIVE PANTS SPONSORED BY „ATELIER GARDEUR“ A LOCAL COMPANY FROM MÖNCHENGLADBACH (GER). ON THE TORSO AS WELL ON ONE KNEE THE STRANDS ARE WOVEN TOGETHER TO CREATE A NEW SURFACE.

THE CREATED FABRIC IS SYMBOLICALLY FOR SOCIAL OR POLITICAL COMMUNITIES SUCH AS THE EUROPEAN UNION THAT PROVIDES SAFETY AND PROTECTION THROUGH THE COHERENCE OF EACH INDIVIDUAL. IF ONE PART OF THE COMMUNITY IS LEAVING, LIKE THE UNITED KINGDOM IS LEAVING THE EU, THE FUNCTION IS STILL GUARANTEED. IF MORE MEMBERS ARE LEAVING IT COULD GET UNSTABLE LIKE THE TEXTILE SURFACE WILL GET UNSTABLE WHEN DENIM STRANDS ARE REMOVED FROM OUTSIDE.

MODELS: PHILIP ARNDT, LAURA KÜNNE, LEVENT POYRAZ
