Course Summary
This design course will use the body as a site to inspire and develop non-clothing three dimensional fashion artefacts and accessories. Through a series of workshops, and with an emphasis on the senses, body techniques and cultural/social/environmental contexts, you will be encouraged to interrogate traditional fashion accessory categories, archetypes, materials and techniques. Research tasks exploring the relationships between fashion artefacts, materials and real bodies in context will inspire a final design outcome which will critique and challenge how fashion sees and addresses the body.
