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.
The New Brief
Dresses make up of a quarter of Australian wardrobes, the largest quantity of any item, and yet they are the least worn of any item (Khan, Shaw & Bandara 2022).
The Dress Audit Survey was the first phase of my PhD project – a digital wardrobe study – that asked participants about their most and least worn dress. The findings helped to formulate a new design brief that could helpd to increase the active life of dresses.
