My Final Major concept is called ‘Metamorphosis’. This describes a concept that creates multi-purpose garments influenced by the Fair Trade movement and also adopts the idea of transforming the garments into different silhouettes to influence people to buy less and not to contribute to the throwaway fast fashion market, but to the ethical revolution.
This collection promotes adaptability and explores the various functions that garments can serve, combining quality and protection. The garments transform to perform different roles, such as changing the silhouette by using different fastenings which would create a different look. I have been inspired by two designers, Lucy Orta- who has designed garments that transform into a living space and Hussein Chalayan who has designed garments that transformed into interior furniture and other objects. The collection reinforces the ethical values of: re-do, re-cycle and re-use.
