I respectfully acknowledge the Wurundjeri people as the traditional custodians of the unceded lands, waters and skies where my studio is situated, and pay respects to their elders past and present and emerging and the stolen generations.
Snap Dress Prototype 02
An experimental dress designed to be infinitely changeable for the wearer.
Boxy and oversized so that can be worn by many body shapes and sizes. The dress is covered with snaps that can connect to each other to change the shape and allows other pieces to be attached. Made from deadstock lyocell, or hemp and silk with metal snaps.
Five of this iteration of the dress were made and were sent out to participants who wore them in their everyday lives for three months. Titled the ‘Wearing Challenge’ the participants kindly shared feedback with me each week about their wearing experiences. This wearing activity was part of PhD research project.
