2020-2021

Wind, rain, gravity and light: the enemies of clothing are everywhere, waiting to catch an unassuming victim. A flash of skin elicits gasps and whispers. In case that is a proposal for the way clothing can function in very specific situations through toeing the line between practical and excessive. Each look in my thesis presents a solution or a reaction to a wardrobe malfunction, a seam tearing, wind blowing up a skirt, a downpour, and at the same time questions why these embarrassing situations only occur to women, as Google Images suggests.
